| friend. 1t shows how big buSlnesS
 man who uses his li'l ol' bean can pull
 stunts that a small business man
 couldn't get away with even if he
 should think of it:
 | Hennery was getting his tires from
 various rubber factories, and each
 casing came wrapped in paper and | tied with twine, several castings to a crate. Each inner tube came in box One day Hennery took his little foun- | tain pen and figured out as how 1t cost him ten cents apiece to take the | paper off a casing and take the inner
 tube out of the box and put it in the casing. So he dictated a letter to each of the factories from which he
 was getting tires advising them that | thereafter the castings were not to be | wrapped, nor the inner tubes put in l boxes, but that an inner tube should
 be put in each casing. He also in- l formed them that tire shipments must
 be made in crates, certain number
 in each crate, and even drew exact | specifications of the crate, specifying | just what size it must be, the length
 and width of each board, that the
 crates must be screwed together and
 even designated the size of the screws
 and where each screw hole must be.
 All but one of the factories accept
 ed the conditions. The one that didn't
 was notified not to bother about send
 ing any more tires.
 When the tires began to come in their crates, Hennery not only saved
 ten cents on each tire by not having to unwrap it and take the inner tube
 out of box and put it in the casing,
 but each crate had the floor boards
 for four Ford cars, just the right
 width and length, with the screw holes
 just where they belonged and the
 screws furnished.
 If you look for reasons why Hen
 nery is rich, that is one of them, and there are plenty more.
 Sam Diamond tells about two Jews and an Irishman crossing a deep swift
 river in a boat. The boat began to sink. The Jews said they couldn't swim. AS the boat went under the
 Irishman struck out for shore and, after hard swim, managed to reach there. To his great surprise he found the two Jews who couldn't swim sitting on the bank. "How did yez git here when yez couldn't swim ?" he wanted to know. "Oh, we just kept on talking" they explained.
 Bill Switzer shipped a carload of pinon nuts to Detroit and started in to sell them. He was advised that they couldn't buy them unless they were shelled. "The devil you say," Bill retorted. "If they were sheIled wouldn't sell them"
 Bur Kelly and Wild Bill Simson were down south of Ash Fork in a Ford. A very good friend-ah, there are such few friends!-gave them a | quart of booze that hadn't been di- luted a-tall. They started for Ash Fork just after dark and hadn't gone far when the yhad a blowout. They 1 added a drink apiece of the booze to 1 what they already had absorbed, built | bonfire to give them light to | work by, changed the tire, took an- other drink apiece, cranked the car and climbed aboard. After they had | been going along nicely for awhile, | Bill noticed the engine speeding up | and changed into low to go down hill | under compression. After a while he threw back into high and as they seemed to be going little too fast for safety, he threw into low again. When he went back to high he killed the engine. Bur got out to crank and then tried to find out about how near Ash Fork they were. He noticed the embers of what looked like camp fire. Then he got suspicious. He went around behind the car and dis covered that they had been riding an hour since fixing the blowout with the jack under the rear axle.
 That feller I. B. Koch is the gum dingdest autioneer! When a feller kin git $11 fer a medium sized cake by splittin it in sections an selling each separately, he's got the profits a sandwich man makes out of lofe of bred beat to a fraZzle.
 r. H. Nelson says the laziest fellow he ever saw was sitting in his store when the funeral procession of his uncle passed by. His clerk told him it was passing and he said he was sor- ry he wasn't sittin' in the right place to see it.
 Joe Frohmiller says he knows a lag fer man who, when Joe saw he was standing on a live coal and told him about it, asked (which foot?"
 Gettin' an awful lot about Ford cars in this bunch of rawlings, but can't help telfin' bout Jack Wilson's reply when asked how much one had to know to run Ford. Jack said one doesn't have to know much of any thing to run one, but when he can't run it he has to know helluva lot.
 Dear c. C.-Who invented the loose eaf system ?-B. w. Dawes.
 Not certain which one it was, Der . lie, but it was either Adam or Eve.
 Hot weather like we had last week 1 gets all the yaners going. Course We don't believe a word of their stor- es, but, as there may be a grain of 1
