cheerful crouch. as he stood in front Of

across the street at the Post Office De-

Yes. sir. I'm glad it's gone. and I'm
honest enough to say So continued the
happy crouch. IAN this bunk about
no beer. no work has given me. and

Beer Overrated Drink. He Says.
ITO hear some people talk you would
think beer was the end and aim, the
sole, pulsng ambition of all created
beings. When you listen to these ex-
aggera tors you see nation in tears to-
day. Say. do l look as if am about to
dissolve in lachrymal fluid? Are the
people going to float away on a flood
of grief because they are deprived OF
Suds made of hops?
why. to listen to these birds one
would think that the world was com
ing to an end today, and henceforth
| life itself would be of no account
The way some of these fellers carry
on you would think that the sun
drank beer every hour to make him
| shine and the earth took 776,000gal-
| lon swigs every hour or SO to keep
| up the universal motion.
Beer, in these fellers' estimation
| has displaced ether as the medium
| in which all creation swings. and
! without it the universe will put on
| the brakes and come to a sudden and
| decidedly painful stop.
