Thus gamblers go their giddy

A little pleasure of this sort
helps one over many a hard place

JUST FOLKS

KEEP GOING.

When things go wrong as they sometimes will,
And the road you're trudging seems all up hill,
When the funds low and the debts are high
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh'
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest if you must-but don't you quit.
Life is queer with it's twists and turns,
As every one of us sometimes learns
And many failure turns about
When he might have won had he stuck II OUT
Don't give up, though the pace seems SLOW
You may succeed with another blow
Often the goal is nearer than
1t seems to faint and faltering man,
Often the struggler has given up
When he might have captured the Yictor's cup,
And he learned too late, when the night slipped
down,
How close he was to the golden crown.
Success is failure turned inside out
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And YOU never can tell how close you are,
1t may be near when it seems afar;
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit
It's when things worst that you mustn't quit

THE PLUTI5.

Three years ago, in Estes Park,
/ met an oil-well millionaire, and
life for him was just lark,
without a trouble or a care. His
was the finest car in sight, for
his own use designed and built,
and when he went to roost at
night he doubtless had an ermine
quilt. Naught was too luscious
for his blood, he had the price,
and then some more; his royalties,
IN ceaseless flood rolled in, like
breakers on the shore. But Yes

Washington, the street manifesting
unusual interest in incidents at

Excerpts of President Hardings
address were issued by the news
tickers during lulls in trading. The
views of the new chief executive
regarding the country's abnormal
expenditures, reimbursement of war

responsive chord in the financial
district.
Other developments included adj
vices from the Pittsburgh district
indicating q further letdown of OPP
erations in the steel industry. an
advance in oil prices on the Pacific
coast and the firmness Of foreign
exchange.
Among the minor happenings
were the passing of the Stromberg
Carburetor dividend, which occa-
stoned no surprise, and more wage
reductions, the latter extending to
one of the large mail order houses
of the middle west. 4
