Uncle Sam is so brOad-mtnded That

II is curious fact about misers
that nearly always they do not hide
their money in one place, but scatter
1t about in all sorts of odd spOts-the
idea doubtless being that in case of
theft only a minor fraction of the
hoard is likely to be discovered by the
robber.
Thus It has happened many a time

thousands of wounded men were

Ralph Bingham, the funny man. He
is Americas premier laugh-producer
and had no difficulty in making the
large crowd laugh Saturday night.
He had good string of jokes but all
clean and wholesome. His songs and
parodies were side-splitters and his
negro dialect stories were rich and
humorous.
He is big good natured man and
his program was a fitting climax Il

lar one is attested by the fact tina
