Everyday Wisdom
By Don HerOld

Do not throw away your old hair
brushes. They make good brushes fer
busting boxing gloves. No trouble
should be had in selling them to any
pugilist.
Do not chew gum at a funeral.
Or any place else.
Eat potato chips as confdentially
as possible.
Spaghetti is also purely pers nal
matter, and should be eaten only in
the privacy of one rs own bathroom.
To Amateur Photographers: 1t is
economical, in the long run, to take
only one picture on a plate.
