And Did She Miss Him While He Was Aw2y3
From the Galesburg Republican-Register]

and having served the period OF his en-
listment he was discharged and later
married at Bridgeton, N. j.. and this
visit is the first time his wife and baby
have visited the Galva relatives.
The gathering proved a very pleas
ant event to Mr.. Hultgren as it gave him
opportunity to see and meet the intimate
friend OF years ago.
1T is said" take it from story in the
r. .. S., that three or four other business
houses were victimized but no record Of these
has not been found
II two negatives make an affirmative what's
the answer?
IN WHICH THE SPLIT INVENTIVE PRIMER
Is BORN AND HAS ITS BEING.
Dear Mac: Did you know that there are
many seemingly smart people who don't know
a noun from verb or recognize inhnlttves at
ALL split or intact?
Talking to someone that thought deserved
to become member of our Greenwichian cir
Gle, he surprised me by confessing that he
could unknowingly demolish sentence so
completely that dynamite would have to be
used to assemble the pieces and throw them
into their proper positions. With sincere con-
Germ he regretted his inability to grasp our in
fnitive problems but hoped that prolonged
bombardment against such cranio-cerebral
density would some day bring results.
What with moving, and birthday parties,
and slight attack Of melancholia last week,
know that You need rest. So with your
kind permission. will gladly attend to this
poor duck myself. shall call him Peter, as
1t Is one Of his four middle names that no one
has ever heard Of.
Now Pete, suppose you were to run.
This is very difficult to visualize, of course
With such port1y dimensions to contend with
and the dignity that goes with 1t all oozing out
from every angle-curve. I meant would be
| a we'll nigh impossible feat. A lively magma
ton, however, is wonderful thing One is so
resourceful in a world of imagery, and build
ing material there is cheaper than ever. So let
US suppose that to ru would be physical
possibility in your case.
Those two words are married to each other
Pete. But an interruptions word, in the form
OF an innocent adverb, will often wedge its way
| between this devoted couple and this Is what
we think is both pathetic and ridiculous You
will admit that you could never say, Il expect
to gracefully run. Even with a hint OF
/ establishment Il expected to gracefully
| run, would sound preposterous.
TO wait is another interesting example
You never liked to, know, but there have been
! experts at it. Still I'm sure that Woodrow
never. never beat his breast and CRIED "T @
watchfully wait must be my motto"
Another expert waiter can be found in one
! OF the Victory Cafes in Topeka. His extraordi.
nary personality has given this plain little
grub shop an air Of distinction. Imagine the
! courtesy of Don Quixote. the uncanny subtlety
of the Lone Wolf and the charm Of Valentino
and there you are. Result is that Just as soou
| as he begins to deferentially wait on YOU
your pocketbook starts to squirm and finally
rolls over in violent siege of hernia
To love is the first thing you learn in
Latin class. 1t is really too complicated to
dwell upon in column of this kind except tf
say that to dearly love even dog is wrong
according to our present strict rules.
II you still feel dazed in the matter, Pete
shall have to call Mac and the others to youI
aid. I'm through. WINNIE
| EVEN if Pete muffs the simple explanation
OF the simple infnitive he ought to get kicl
out Of the general content of Winnie's contri
butid Il. PHYSICALLY, Winnie, puhsonally We
thank you from the b. o. o. h. for coming te
our rescue on such a distressingly wahm day
