Take things always by the smooth
handle. "
10 If angry, count 10 before you
speak; if overangry, count 100.
! This platform strong enough to hold
Democrats, Republicans and Nonpar
tisans; suffragists and anti -suhfragist*:
vets and drys.
Old stuff! Surely! Jefferson wrote
it in 1925. But, in general, it is still to
be put into practice by most people.
