People are not very much inclined
to laugh at the girl who is always
ready to join in the laugh against her
self. 1t Is the one who assumes airs
of tremendous superiority, and seems
to feel herself infallible, who needs to

people laugh at the girl who laughs at
herself, there is always a tenderness
in it, kindness that takes out all
the sting. Learn to enjoy a joke Oh

Chas. Larson, q town OF Con
over farmer who was down to
the county seat last week Sat
urday, has nothing but good
optimism for crop production IN
Villas county this fall. His oats,
rye and wheat are going to help
win the war by the way they
are humping along these days,
and that means much for the
boys fighting for the United
States. The larger the crops the
more there is to eat-and with
plenty of good substantial food
and an overabundance of Amer
lean pep" the boys from Amer
lea will keep Heinie on the run
from daybreak till dark. Every
Conover farmer has utilized
every spare inch of ground this
year and their crops are OF the
finest.
