TRUE YARNS AND
REAL INCIDENTS

The party was just swapping little
yarns and incidents that had come
under their notice or Of their own ex
perience. Said Colonel Albert Green
law, department commander of the
Maine American Legion:
II was in Boston sometime ago on
military business and in uniform.
Another officer and myself sat down
| in a shoe shining emporium to have
| our boots polished. We were rather
| pressed for time and said to my
| friend, in order to spur the boys on to
hurry, that I'd bet him a dollar that
I got the best and fastest shine.
That started a race between the kids
and it so happened that my lad An
! ishod first. 1 looked the job over
and discovered that the back of the
heels had been overlooked, so said
to my kid:
Say. don't you shine the backs
of heels in this town.?
And quick as fash came back the
retort:
"Oh, a good soldier never looks
behind"
Il wilted and the boy got his ex-
ira tip"

Governor Milliken was at Athens
fair the other day and among others
u gentleman was introduced to him
with the remark that the only possible
thing that could be said against him
was that he was a Democrat. The
Governor in reply remarked that that
was all right. for we "have to keep
some for seed" and the man and all
his friends laughed, approaching the
joke
