drives his own Ford.

tlon1ng that Mr.. Phillips no longer
drives his own Ford.
Mr.. Davis is possessed of a great
curiosity. We agree with Mr.. Davis
that it is very battling to determine
how Mr.. Pons can so completely cen
ceal his whereabouts after dark in
such small town as Madisonville5
We deeply regret to learn that Mr..
James Moore has severed his connee-
tions with the Emergency Fleet Cor
poration as Assistant Resident In
spector. We will greatly miss Mr..
Moore's charming personality and
able assistance and sincerely wish
him success in his new undertaking.
We have been hearing the chips
clinking through the wee hours Of
the morning. We are inclined to
believe that this is the reason why
Mr.. Dietrich is beginning to bear
such great resemblance to GLOOMY
Gus
A month ago Mr.. Roland Ladreyth
was one of the most enthusiastic
Ford owners in the Parish. Is it
not funny what a change of sentd-
ment a few punctured tires will
bring about?
The atmosphere or something else
about Madisonville has been guilty
of causing large carbuncle to bud
on the neck Of Mr.. John Davis. We
deeply sympathize with Mr.. Davis in
this hour of his great agony, butt VIC
cannot understand why DR.. Vcrdier
has prescribed the water wagon. We
fear that Mr.. Davis Will socr begin
to sing ''I Don't Want To Iet Weli"
The present fatted conditions of
Mr.. Jim Moore, Assistant Resident
Inspector Of the Emergency Fleet
Corporation, bears a great test:sica-
tion to the health producing a,laIi-
ties OF st. Tammany parish. How
ever, with his ravenous appetite ;Iim
could have easily gotten IA in; the
Sahara Desert, and owing to the
number of times he requests a !sec-
ono helping of his tablemates, they
often wish he were there.
We are glad to see the EmG- ,sacy
Fleet Corporation Machinery install
ldtion Inspector, Captain Carlson,
baik on the job, having fully rs.1v
cred from his recent illness
ii is commonly understood that all
mot orists advocate better rosas.
hc1 &C the mentioning in previJrs Ia
sIes OF The Farmer that many peti-
ticIs we're made for the improvement
oe the road between Madisonvili,, and
CCrtngton. Evidently, Mr. Ed. r.
Malloy is not in sympathy with t3e
n.otement, as he was obse.ved rid
ing in ditch on Thursday morn
ing, January %. From this 1t would
appear that Mr.. Malloy prefers wet
and sloppy path.
We welcome the addition of Mr..
f ]. McDougall to our Office force
He has recently been discharged from
the army, where he had elevated
himself to the rank of First Lieu
tenant Mr.. McDougall will have
complete charge OF our Pay Roll De-
partment.
Mr.. H. D. Vinet, Assistant Plant
Guard Marshal for the Emergency
Fleet Corporation at the Jahncke
Shipyard, when asked why he was
not married, replied because no one
ever asked men," Go easy, DAN the
girls in the future will claim the
privilege heretofore enjoyed by the
men. Do you remember what the
little lady in white said at the gate,
Don't be talking that way around
here"
Mr.. Richard says his Hudson is a
good car, except that the engine
misses. We always thought that the
motor was the most essential thing
in car, but it seems not as Mr..
Richards For Sale" sign brought a
favorable offer from the Canning
Factory.
Isn't it strange how such things
will happen? Several weeks age
Mr.. John L. Jones, of Covington,
sights and it seems as IL Mr.. Jones
took in 'too many sights for, after
purchasing his ticket to come home
he fell asleep in the depot Gas the
people in Crystal Springs do when
they wait for the train), and upon
awakening, found his hat gone. Be-
HeVing that it had been stolen, Mr..
Jones at nee began walking up and
down Canal Street in an effort to
apprehend the thief After, many
hours of fruitless search, crestfallen,
he boarded the train for Covfngton.
II any one should hannen to see MT.
Jones' hat, please notify him.
