JEALOUSY

It's the most hedious thing the average news

after quarter century of observing and experience
Newspapers probably are. to a certain extent like
human beings. for they made up by creatures
that claim TO be human (though sometimes they are
not treated as such by folks). and it may be
possible that the makers of newspapers know more
about the operations of certain people, lodges,
churches etc. than Others. which is but natural
and by the way cannot be avoided in many re-
spects, because some people just naturally won t
tell anything to a newspaper.
