COME, ALL YE FAITHFUL

This is the last issue of the Cancels Back that will appear.
 By the time the next publication day of this great amicus populi will have rolled around, we and our reader will have been incidental victims of the GREAT UNDOING. We will have be- come whatever is supposed to become of us when the place on which we have been accustomed to hang our hats collides with the place on which others have been accustomed to hang their hats.
 Squoosh!
 Just exactly what is going to hap pen and how it is going to happen is not certain. After looking over the family atlas, we have concluded that it can. be likened to what happens to ripe tomato when a curious boy heaves it against brick wall.
 How do we know it's going to hap pen? Why, some scientist some where or other said so. If he had only said so and let it go at that, we wouldn't be so prone to believe him. But the newspapers PRINTED it!
 That settles it.
 That settles it.
 Anything and everything that ap- pears in print is truth. Gospel truth. Anyone who has ever read a daily newspaper knows that And it wasn't the newspapers that said so. It was the scientist himself said DO. We've got to believe it. No way out of it. Whatever a scientist says, cannot be disputed.
 Real Harmony Here
 Scientists are all that way Always have been. When one of them says so and so is the fact of situation, all | the others agree to 1t and accept the l statement as an axiom upon which to work. Look at Columbus. Columbus was scientist. The minute he sat down and figured out that the world was round and announced his theory | to the rest of the world and his fellow scientists, they all agreed with him ] Historians are somewhat in error when they say that he took a couple of ships and sailed the oceans to prove that the world was round.
 Free World Tour
 He didn't have to prove 1t. All he got the trip for was as a sort of ar award for discovering the world was round.
 And so it is in the case of this scientist who has figured out that the worlds end is due in Arizona some time next Wednesday. The paper. printed the story of his discovery a. a sort of reward. And to prove tha be has faith in his own prediction we'll bet that he refused to accept an, pay for writing the stuff for the paper because he knew that he had no mor' use for money, with the end of tn, world so near at hand.
