NEVER CERTAIN.

ldonno Evergessen Jinks is full
of "guesses" and of thinks" he's
never sure of anything and
seems content with maybeing."
When asked for facts he ought
to know he either answers Il
donno, or makes a maybe or
a guess with no degree of
certainness.
It's often wisdom. sure enough.
to say Il guess" and throw a bluff
but he's the stoutest of men
who can't be certain now and then.
The gUessitied uncertain guy is
never rated very high. for folks who
wants results will seek for men
who know whereof they speak.
ldonno links, as l have shown.
has no snap judgment of his own;
his views are never well defined.
so none respect his guessful mind.
