Find Humor in Censorship

France has a censorship. But it also
has sense of humor. BY means of
this humor 1t is able to bear sox,well
with the censorship that it would suf-
fer a sense of loss if the institution
were suddenly abolished.
The way the French censor works
is this: He reads the page proofs Of
the newspapers and periodicals and
notifies the publishers what part of
their printed matter they cannot cir
culate. The publishers then chisel the
stereotyped plates and the papers
come out blotched with white spaces.
Readers, seeing these gaps, invariably
assume that something of extreme i'm
portance has been withheld from
them. They besiege their off1cehold-
ers and politicians for enlightenment.
The distressed public servants, know
ing not a thing. must yet say some
thing. So they invent news. The re-
suits are comical. Government officers
get entangled in their own stories,
theU are held to account for state
ments they had forgotten they had
made. they are forced to dodge friends
and avoid constituents.
1t speaks for the spirit OF a coun-
try that what might be expected to

If You Have Wood To Sell .
Sell Now.

Every intelligent farmer is anx.
ious to make his farm woodlot yield
as much profit as possible, and t.
this end should market its products
when prices are at the crest.
AT present, there is probably o
greater demand for firewood than
before in American history. Be.
cause of oal-mine strikes, congested
freight conditions, and abnormal de-
mands for coal by war industries
and transport ships, nearly every
city faces something like fuel fam
inc.
If the farmer has wood to sell,
therefore, now is the time to market
it. OF course, farmers should not
strip their woods so as to menace
their own future supply of fuel, but
whenever any farmer has more fire.
wood than he can reasonably use,
both patriotism and self-interest sug-
gest prompt marketing.
On many farms a great deal OF
burnable wood goes to waste that
could, with little forethought, be
utilizel. For example, everywhere
timber il being or has recently been
cut, the tree tops should be worked
up into frewood and sold. Not
only can this usually be done profit
ably but if taken up by farmers
g morally, this plan will do mucl
to relieve the fuel shortage whicl
now menaces the poor of our cities
with genuine distress.
Where any of us have waste WOOD
on our farms, let's not drive to towr
with empty wagons this winter
