Monroe McClurg, Jr., general man.
ager of the I'll Tire and Accessory
while a passenger on the Y. g. M. ".
to Clarksdale a few days ago, where
he was going visit relatives, be-
came peeved on account of the lag
gard service. McClurg said a thous-
and things, defaming the character of
the train, paying particular respect
to the speed. The conductor finally
got mad and said: "Well, if o don't
like it get off and walk" Il would"
replied Mr.. McClurg 'only I have a
friend on the train and / don't want
to hang around the Clarksdale depot
waiting for him."
Mr.. Stewart McClosky, manager of
the Ford Garage, must be mentioned
in this column, if no one else, for he
said yesterday he had learned that
when the Lord made woman beautiful,
He also made them foolish. He made
them beautiful so the men would love
them and He made them foolish so
they would love the men.
P. E.. Schilling, of the Shcilling Au-
to Company, who sell Studebaker
cars, once lived a rather care-free
life. He had been spending his time
with a group Of interesting high
stepping fellows. He told his better
hall he had reformed and from then
on he turned over a new leaf, threw
up his former associates and COM
menced to live the "bread n milk
life. Just a few weeks G he was
touring the county in his car, when
something vent wrong, which is out
OF the ordinary for a Studebaker, and
Re had to remain in the country until
midnight. On returning, he found his
wife waiting for him. 81 guess you
wondered where l was" said Mr..
Schilling.
"I did, so l wired all your former
friends to see if you were there" she
replied, "and got the same telegram
from each and every one" Here they
are. On each telegram was the state
ment: Don't worry, Mr.. Schilling is
spending the night with u.s."
The Hupmobile car is sold here by
the Pitchford-Lundy Automobile Co
You know more about a Hupmobile
than l can write. Hence We'll not
take up your time on this remarkable
car today. Charles Pitchford, one OF
the proprietors, is entitled to the
large business he is getting, because
he is progressive, tells me that last
month chickens were SO high here
that a he knew had So and
she didn't know whether to buy a
chicken for dinner or a feather for
her hat.
While in your city this story was
given me on w. K. Clements, your
well-liked and famous high class ga
rage, auto accessories n everything
man. He was attending Kindergarten
and the kindergarten teacher said to
him:
"And what is your name little
boy?"
81 don't know" replied Clements.
"Come, come; what does your mo-
Their call you when the cakes are
done?"
Clements frightened up, "she don't
call me then, I'm there!'
Ed. Note-Same way since he's
grown up, "He's there.")
Louis Post was a confused BRIDE
groom. He's not that way now in the
garage business and is prepared to
take care of your wants. Here's
the story on him: The guests were
seated around the table for his we'd
ding breakfast, when someone said
that he make a speech. He showed
his unwillingness to do so and blush
ed. They continued until he rose awk-
wardly and stood beside his bride, un--
consciously placing his hand or her
shoulder, and said: Ladies and gen.
tlemen, this has beer thrust upon
me-"
He was interrupted by laughter and
sat down, more confused thar ever.
