Everybody in Hogville thought Sile
Sims had developed into a wonderful
trader when he traded year old spot
ted calf for a used automobile, but as
time fits by, longing for his calf
back, can be noticed on Sile' 8 face. He

run more than few steps at a time
and it seems to be growing rapid,
worse.

Sile Sims Fails to ''Make Good
Sile Sims, who was hired a week
ago, beginning Monday, by Bub Smooth
ers. the Hogville grocer, as saleman,
has been fred off the job. There has
since been a great deal of explaining
done by both sides as to why Sile
failed to "make good.' Sile has told
it that Bub is not conducting a lcgi-
innate business and that salesman, it
mattered not how honest and frank, he
tried to be, could not have the conf
dcnce of a customer owing to the fact
that they had been deceived so often
by Bub, in his past dealings with
them. When Bub heard this. he said
the reason he fred Sile was, that he is
no salesman; that he is now confident
if he was placed on a main thorough
fare in hell to pcddle ice water at bar
gain prices he could not sell a cupful.
