Fairmont people, while at times are
heard to complain of the hills they
have to climb, at times OF this kind
are brought to u realization Of the adj
vantages they have. With an abund-

had a dollars loss by flood. no facto-

mark and no loss OF time is ever eX-
perlenced by labOnng men or business
men by reasons Of the high water
Being thus so fortunately situated the
people OF Fairmont and all other West
Virginia towns so fortunately situated
should respond most literally to the
appeal for help going ont from stFick-

be ready TO render immediate assist

assistance before the food is ser.

to have my dome OF thought ampu-
tated. One time I'd be riding along
with Marie Antoinette and again with
RObespierre, and got so used to
being beheaded that L looked upon the
eXecutiOner as my bosom friend /
talked revolution by day and night,
asleep and awake, and my business was
going to the bow vows. Then my
wife took the law into her own hands
She sent all my books down to the
furnace and had them burned and for
days together she was at my elbow
every minute. She carried a darning
needle, and every time 1 mentioned the
French revolution she prOdded me
with it. so I finally emerged from my
trance and got back to earth and the
hotel business again. 1t just shows how
too much of a good thing is bad medi-
cine"

SansOn's Memoirs and 1 put in most
of my time reading them, until
fairly went batty on the subject. II

to death that nobody seemed to care

IF a travelling man asked me what
time the 10:40 train left for the east,
I'd be apt to reply that CouthOn and

worse, and then he'd look at me in
