UNCLE DUDLEY'S COLUMN

It is doubtful, however, if it will
ever be placed on the market where
the users of motor cars can take ad-
vantage Of it at reduced cost. The
oil and gasoline interests are too rich
and powerful to ever allow such disas-
trous competition with their industry
to exist.
Periodically we hear such reports.
and motorists become enthused over
the possibility of cheaper fuel for
their engines.
Then the project goes the way Of its
Predecesso1sIpossibiy through strangu-
lation-and the public continues to line
the pockets of the oil barons.
The great American throat is not so
parched as it was. 1t is becoming
wetter every day.
Statistics from Washington state
that in 1921 every man, woman and
child in the United States consumed an
average Of forty-nine gallons Of milk,
or nearly a gallon week per capita.
nation that consumes gallon of
milk week per person will surely not
suffer to any great extent as a result
of that "eerrible thirst.''
In time it may become corpulent--
even fat.
The happer has had great run for
her money.
She has been observed of all observ-
ers, the admired Of all admirers and the
cussed of all cussers.
She tapped herself into fame and
now she is on the verge Of Tapping her
self into oblivion.
But there's reason.
Americans like sensations-those
that are spicy, but brief. We haven It
the time to pursue any one sensation to
a great length. There are too many
others waiting to edge in.
The fapper was sensation-for a
time. But she tapped so strenuously
in season and out, that she became
wearisome to the public, and now she
is about to become nuisance. Soon
she will be Tapping only for her own
admiration,
But she was quite worth while. She
furnished US few thrills and was the
object of many new jests-an Of which
is necessary in the average American
day.
We will bid her adieu without regret.

The road to success is not boule-

Many a man has fought his way to
the top of the ladder only to have the
blamed thing collapse: =,
All things come, to him who waits If
he reaches out and grabs them as they

When man and his wife agree on
every subject one of them does all Of
the talking.
spooning in public by married people
covers up many an ugly scrap behind
the scenes.
And why should Europe be begging
for American loansa Our rich tourists
are juicy picking.
Congress is tinkering with the tar

It's difficult to blush upon occasion

Some old skinfints drop penny in
the collection box and expect to reap a
dollars worth Of blessings.
The most insignificant person can
easily attract attention by snoring in
church.
In admiring some of those spiffy
bathing suits illustrated in the maga-
zines one should remember that they
are not intended to be worn in the
