The Right Place

The ideal place to live would be
A farm with meadows stretching
wide,
And right next door grocery,
And bak'ry on the other side.
A theater across the way,
With all the latest comedies,
And next to that a grand stand, say
Where one could watch ten-inning
ties.
The cowbells ringing in the lanes
While taxicabs and cars go by;
A station near with frequent trains;
Neat restaurants and open sky.
An apple tree meath with to sit
And view the traffic in the street
And movies on screen to fit
While breezes blew from off the
wheat.
A brook to Groom, a band to snort;
The city sights, country view;
A rural urban home, in short,
/ think place like that would do
Town Topics.

Girl Drops A Match
YoungMan Picks 1t Up

On Thursday evening, about six
thirty, well-known Palisade young
man was returning home on Pail
SADIE Line car. When nearing Grant
mood, one of a pair of peroxide
movie blondes was noticed looking
anxiously into a little vanity bag she
carried on her arm. She turned
things topsy-turvy, in it, and finally
something fell to the floor. The
young man had been busily cycling
her, and no sooner did he see the
article fall to the floor, than he was
down after it in a jiffy. He was
picking up the thing, embarrassed to
death, almost, at the thought of how
foolish he must look. But he did
not hesitate, so quick as wink he
looked up at her and said:
"Do you want this ?" offering her
the match. He was rewarded with a
severe frown, which made the other
passengers laughed at his unwilling
predicament. 1t was very funny in
deed.
