There is a pathetic echo Of an old IL

the unmistakable evidence OF public

President spoke rarely in favor Of the

Making a Hit

A friend whose name | do not
mention had tried for years to
gain renown: he tried all ways
to win attention, and set folks
talking in the town. But all the
chances seemed against him,
none yielded to his smile or lure !:
the pent-up Uticas, they fenced
him, and kept him painfully OBJ
scure. He wrote fine odes and
none would read them, men only
laughed to see him soar; he
made high talks and none would
heed them. and people voted him
a bore. And when he'd failed in
projects twenty, and was to
humble walks resigned, fame
came his way, and came a-plenty,
and now he's in the public mind.
He is the pride of every voter,
and men discuss him near and
far-the man who does not own
a motor, the guy who has no
choo-choo car. When strangers
visit in our city we show the
pesthouse and the Jail, ye editor,
so wise and witty, the banker
with his bunch of kale. We view
the local legislature, the court
house, with its doors ajar, and
then produce that freak of ma
ture, the man who doesn't own a
car. WALT MASON.
