Faith Was Weak.

During an extended drought in the
land that inspires the rag-time song
writer's the "Rev'end" George Washing
ten called a gathering of his colored
brethren to supplicate the Lord for
rain. Before he opened his sermon
the "Rev'end" surveyed his congrega-
ton critically, and with increasing sat
~isfaction. At last he lamented:
"De lack OBJ faith of yo' niggers is
scandalous and sinful, and makes my
heart sore and weary, and afeared for
your souls! Heah we hab gathered
to beg de Lord to stop de drought dat
is burning up our fields, and to bless
us with rain in abundance. And not
one-no, sab mot n OBJ yo' dis
graceful sinners had faith enough to
bring an umbrella to go home with"

Hello Profanity.

The rule is strict against using pro-
fame language when talking oven the
telephone. A telephone experiment
has proved a failure in Lynn, Mass.
The manager noticed that wrong
number" calls were frequent, and he or
dered the hello" girls to call each digit
separately and to insert the word
dash after each one. The method
was slow, but the climax was reached
when a Lynn mar vas in a hurry to
get a Boston newspaper office. He
called for Boston 30OO' and heard a
sweet voice at "central' say: Beach
three, dash, oh, dash, oh, dash, oh,
DASH"
That nettled the Lynn man and he
called out:
"Well, what are you cussing about?'
The order was abolished, and no
more dashes are being said by the
telephone girls at Lynn.-Butfalo Com

ANY CORN LIFTS OUT,

No ~foolishness! Lift your corns
and cailuses off with fingers
It's like magic!

Sore corns, hard corns, soft corns or
any kind of a corn, can harmlesSly be
lifted right out with the fingers if you
apply upon the corn a few drops of
~freezone. says a Cincinnati authority.
For little cost one can get a small
bottle of %freeZone at any drug store,
which will positively rid ones feet Of
every corn or callus without pain.
This simple drug dries the moment
it is applied and does not even irri-
tate the surrounding skin while ap-
plying it or afterwards.
This 4 announcement will interest
many Of our readers. If your druggist
hasn't any freezone tell him to surely
get a small bottle for you from his
wholesale drug house.-adv.

Help to Save
Nations Food Supply

In this time Of high cost of living, ev-
erybody should use all possible means to
prevent waste and to help save food. No
one means can be more effective than a
vigorous campaign to eXterminate rats
which destroy over two hundred million
dollars worth of foodstuffs annually. Keep
garbage in rat-proof cans, stop up their
holes, and above all exterminate them
for a few cents at any store. A two ounce
box will usually rid a house or barn of
every rat. 1t destroys mice, c~ockroaches
and waterbugs as well. Adv.

THE TEST OF AN AIRMAN

THE TEST OF AN AIRMAN
Advocates of the nervous tests for
aviators are attempting to add fur
Their proof TO their contentious by
citing Guynemcr's tragic death and
the fact that he was rejected from
the army because of his great ner-
vousness. Evidently they seek to
snow that had he been subjected
to the proper tests for aviators before
being allowed to fly his disability
would have beeen revealed, and his
license would have been refused.
Incidentally France would have
been deprived of one of her greatest
war heroes, and one of the most bril-
liant chapters of the conflict would
have remained unwritten.
But judged from the angle of eff
cheney alone, Guynemer disproves
their contention. He brought down
more German airplanes than many
Of his fellow airn1en who passed the
required tests. 1t is no argument
against the tests. Every precaution
should sbez@taken to safeguard the
lives of aviators, for the natural
risks are great enough in them
selves. But experience has yet to
show that and one rule applies equally
% all men. If the truth were known,
{ was probably the reaction of Guy
1emer's high tension to the conditions
IF aerial battle that made him the
master pilot that he was.
