Fools Paradise

The German people live in
hope because they're fed on
faxed up dope. The public
prints don't dare to tell if battles
are not going well. A German
army meets defeat, and pulls a
panicky retreat. About million
Huns are slain, and stacked, to
mildew in the rain. "Odshsh y
we cry, ."the startled Teuts will
shrivel now, you bet your boots
When they have, heard of this
defeat, and see their armies can
be beat, they'll shed all kinds of
scalding brine and doubtless
will take in their sign" Alas,
they do not hear the news, and
so escape a siege of blues. The
war lords call the printers in,
and sayl Announce that we still
win! Of course we dropped our
guns and ran, but that was
Ludenhinden's plan-a master
stroke of strategy, as all of you
viii later see. Go, print a lot of
cheerful bunk, and if you hint
the luck is punk we'll back you
up against a shed and drill you
with ton of lead" The print
ers then get out their sheets. and
make big triumphs of defeats.
The people read, and say, &c.
whiz, how wonderful our army
is! Our kaiser undefeated
dwells, and Hindendorf is wear
ing bellsp' Some day the Teuts
are bound to wake, and see how
they've been fed on fake, how
they've been made a kaiser's
joke-and then, perhaps, there'll
be some smoke.

No Pleasure In IdIeness.

Idleness is never source Of pleas
ure. The nation puts folks on en-
forced idleness as punishment. A
well-earned rest is boon to any busy
man, but that's far from idleness. The
idler is just spender, parasite,
candidate for social ostracism and
the poorhouse. He soon loses the
power for real enjoyment. He's just
burden to himself and the folks
around him. He's always hunting
happiness, but is too sluggish TO use
the means that bring it. His is the
passive existence of Incidence, stag
nation and deafness. The very facul-
ties capable of giving pleasure are
obsolescent. It's no use to dream
about happiness unless you are will
ing to do little to help bring 1t.
Like love it wears best when used.

Care for Farm Tools.

Tools, saws, chlsels and the like

A bright saw will run much easier
than a rusty one. A pair of sheep

being oiled will be of little value when
next needed.
