ENJOY ENTERTAINMENTS

Does your town endeayor to secure
interesting lectures and concerts for
the entertainment of it's citizens? Of
course you will all give such a public
effort your hearty support. But you
must do more than pay for a seat, if
the permanent success of the affair is
to be assured. You must show your
self to be one of the citizens repre-
senting an intelligent audience. Don't
attempt to appear specially informed
on subject which you know nothing
about. There are some people in ev-
cry audience who know exactly what
they are talking about with respect
to the performance. There are 9TH
ers who think they know, which is
quite different matter. The follow
ing incident shows how ludicrous ig-
norance may make person appear.
A lady attending a concert, said to
friend, Il think the acoustics in
this hall are terrible" The friend re-
piled, Nov that you speak of it, l
do smell something sort of funny"
It you don't understand the matter.
say so frankly and evade such blum
der. No one knows everything in the
world. you know. If you have not
had time to become familiar with the
subject of the entertainment, get what
you can out Of it, and leave uncer-
tainties for verifcation at home later
on. Don't be one Of the people who
force performers to style an audience
as "Unappreciative, dense, and lacking
in sense of humor" One of the ways
of measuring your town is thru crit
icism of the type of public entertain
ment which yeu want, and the recep-
ton which you accord it.
Wood County reporter. [volume] (Grand Rapids [i.e. Wisconsin Rapids], Wis.) 1857-1923, 1920-01-29
DON'T OVERLOOK FACTS

How often we hear the expression
"Oh, you must overlook that in Mrs,
So and So. That's just her way" But
Mrs. So and Sos way shouldn't be
overlooked. She should be called to
account for her bad temper or her
absent mindedness or whatever it is
that makes her act so queerly at times.
There is no reason for her to be con-
stantly excused by her friends and
they are doing her an injury when they
continue to excuse her. 1t is probably
lazy habit ST. has fallen into and
she should be Jerked out of it by
having a few of her valued friends
take offense at her actions instead of
constantly overlooking them.
Wood County reporter. [volume] (Grand Rapids [i.e. Wisconsin Rapids], Wis.) 1857-1923, 1920-01-29
HOW TO BE A BORE

Talk about yourself and your fam
lily to the exclusion of other subjects.
You are clever, a little more so than
other people, and it may be that your
friends won't find it out unless you
tell them about it. Tell them of as
many clever things that you have done
as you can think of and then, in order
to impress it on their minds, repeat
several times the same stories. An
other good subject of conversation is
your various ailments. Describe each
one infinitely and if you know any
thing about the ailments of your par
ents, throw that in for good measure.
When you have done this, if you have
any friends left, start over again.

when WORK KILLS

Many people will tell you that work
never kills any one. But it does.
There is a certain pace that men
travel unat requires wordsworth of a
peculiar kind-work that leads inev-
itably to disaster.
That is the work that has dissipa-
ton as it's goal.
The young man who spends hours
chasing the wild orgies of the bright
lights is worker. He tolls diligently
in his search for new thrills, for the
sordid and seamy side of life, for the
skirt" that smiles when he mods his
head.
His brain is ever on the alert-seek-
ing, seeking, seeking-and at each step
his vitality becomes weaker and
weaker.
In time he becomes old in his youth
his frame but an empty shell, his mind
conglomeration of selfshness and
debauchery.
1t requires work to go this pace
work that leads to the open grave.

care beautiful women stupid" That
is the query propC Lnded by some d. f.
over in London, and now it has foated
across the Atlantic to stir up the d.
f's. over here. Of course the answer
of every sane married man would de-
pend upon the personal appearance of
his wife, and of every lover upon that
of his best girl. Beautiful women stu

ventional lifting of hats and morning
salutations. These attentions are
taken for granted. But l do refer to
such things as the showing of an old
man into the street by a crowd Of
careless young girls coming down the
sidewalk, six or eight abreast. An
other example is the man who is
street hogger with his car, whether
he is driving or parking directly
across some one else's path. A COM
mon annoyance, which almost every
one except the individual indulging
objects to, is expectorating on the
street whenever and wherever the de-
sire prompts. This practice is danger
Gus to the health as we'll as to the
personal comfort. Then you all know
the determined lady who becomes an
animated windmill in a crowd churn-
ing up millinery and ribs alike. Often
she has a large brood of children
who roller skate into all the timid
old ladies and paw over all the store
commodities on display. There is the
professional gum chewer who loves
to stop and talk, threatening to stick
you to her bodily with each word she
utters. Another street nuisance is
the person who consumes a banana
bulkily and allows the banana peeling
to rest on the side walk for some un-
wary passer-by.
Such nuisaHces as these make a
street a dirty struggling, ugly sight,
and mark of retrogression in the
existing conditions of our city
