It seems that when fellows Golfers
will hardly hold another bone, most
every man who knows him offers to
let him have a friendly loan. But when
he really needs assistance to keep from
going down and out, there is no money
in existence whose owner wants to hear
him shout. Fair-weather friends are
always near US as long as fortune de-
signs to bless. but they're the ones who
never hear us when we send out the
s. Remember when you're maxi
ing money to put little bit away and
store II, like the bee stores honey, to
brighten up a rainy day. Just let the
friends hang round and holler - and
also let them sometimes spend-but
don't forget the good old dollar is
worth while having in the end. While
you control the good mazuma, your
friends will crowd around and smile;
but you'll be welcome as a puma II
e'er misfortune takes your pile.

three more Stoney gates at the same

From the recession of grade up
