Upper or lower?" asked the agent.
Whats the difference ?" asked the

is higher than the upper. The higher
price is for the lower. If you want it
lower you'll have to go higher We
sell the upper lower than the lower.
In other words, the higher the lower.
Most people don't like the upper, al
thought it is lower on account of it
being higher. When you occupy an

A New Dodge.

In seeking to create criticism of the
Harding Administration for not re-
plying to notes from the league of ma
tions the internationalists are trying
a new dodge and one which will be as
futile as the others. Secretary Hughes
is very automatically carrying on his
correspondence concerning information
al matters with the powers themselves.
To enter into correspondence with the
league would be quickly seized upon
by its supporters as recognition of
its authority in diplomatic matters,
and the United States does not recog-
nize the authority of the league in any
thing. The attempt of the league to
take hand in the proposed disarma-
ment conference is another example
of the pestiferous propensity of the
league officials to interfere. The
quicker that old corpse is buried in
quicklime the healthier the atmosphere
will be for sane deliberation.

Then another cloudburst happens
And we don't know what to do.

The commissioners don't try,
To stop the raiufalls of each day
He thinks they own the water,
That falls down from the sky;
And makes his little road so rotten.
Just the one that he goes by.
1t is surely gratifying,
We have folks staunch and true;
When we have flood.

They pull their coats and help you

They have them everywhere;

favorably reported the resolution, al

orizing the President to invite foreign
nations to participate in the exposi-
tion to be held at Portland, Oregon, in
1925. 1t is probable that the resolu-

law. 1t is anticipated that foreign ex-

success of the affair, as they have on
similar occasions in the past.
