Says the Litchfeld Ill.) News
Herald: Not long ago man
came into this office and stopped
his paper because he said it was
always printing lot of things
about the same people and that
he was sick of it. Now when
something goes wrong with the
country the government ap-
points a commission to investi-
gate and find out what is the
matter, and the first thing a COM
mission investigates is the man
who made the holler. So we ap-
pointed a commission consisting
Of ourselves to investigate this
man. We just followed the
mans career ever since we
knew him. The first thing that
happened to that man was that
he was born, but he had nothing
to do with it. However, we
mentioned him, although his par
ents were entitled to the credit.
When he was in his early TWEEN
ties he got married. We men
toned that, including the name
of the bride, the preacher, etc.,
in fact we mentioned everything
but the preachers fee, which was
not worth mentionings We
never mentioned the fact that
he never won any premiums at
the county fair. because he new
er exhibited anything. We
never mentioned his name in the
list of committees, because he
never attended anything. We
never mentioned his name in the
list of donors, because he never
donated as much as a doughnut.
We certainly have been treating
this man shamefully, but we will
agree to run a nice obituary
when the time comes.
