German Lies

Give the pessimists enough paper
and ink and they'll have us disgrace
fully whipped before we have u
chance to fire shot. Is it patriotism
to spread the impression that the Ger
man arms are invincihle, when, rs II
matter of fact, the very flower of the
German machine, in the high tide Of
it's efficiency, was driven back at the
Marine and was held in its trenches
for two years while back at the Brit
ish army was getting ready? German
lies in American thrOats do no good
to American ears. -Philadelphia

Willis lost his young heart to the gen

an occasional error. But while wait

wandered around the table. Every

to pervert Tom Moore's famous lines
into the following version:

The man or boy who begins an un-
dertaking by saying. Il know ! shall

cessful business man once said, Il al

which was not saying that lie paid no
attention to the possibility Of failure.
This was considered and disposed Of
before the venture was made.
remember that a woman once came
into a business Office in which was
employed. She had with her tall.
strong looking boy Of about fourteen,
who had come to apply for the position
of office boy.
The manager Of the office. a keen.
live business man. explained the du-
ties of the situation to the boy and
asked:
DO you think you could do the
work."

reply. I'm afraid that maybe !

should secure the place.

tone. II s'pose ! might. but I'm afraid

Then 1t is not of the least use for
you to try" replied the business man
ager little sharply.
And the boy went away with his
mother Gliding him for his lack OF self
confidence.
Ten minutes later another boy OF
about fourteen came in by himself.
walked up to the counter. took on bis
can and asked to see the manager. He,
too. was an applicant for the place.
The business manager carefully ex.
planned the duties Of the situation. and
the boy listened very attentively, while
seeming to weigh the matter well In
his mind.
When asked II he thought he could

household goes to the purchase of good
food. which is often ruined by the
