AND -
PHILOSOPHY
By Uncle bud.

Uncle bud Says: bad pennies
may return, but the good ones
generally stay gone. When
woman has to make excuses for her
husband, he is usually the poorest
one Of the lot"
A one-legged man has a hard time
getting there with both feet.
If some men had to live by their
wits they'd be lucky to exist.
No one can measure the weight
Of an idea-some of them are too
light.
The highway to success is always
less crowded the nearer you ap-
proach the goal.
A woman can put more in a trunk
than the average man can put in q
box car.
Moonshine whiskey is like a
mule-you can't tell how hard a
kick it has by merely looking at
it.
The childless woman always
knows more about how to raise
children than does the mother
But some way no one ever takes
much stock in her theories.
Pat had been hailed into court
for the first time-and the exper-
fence was a novel one indeed
So when he was asked if he wanted
to challenge any of the jury,
he answered: "O'im a little bit
out of thrainin' but Oh wudden't
moind taking on that little guy
wit the pug nose"
An Indiana town once had a
lot Of signs printed and posted
all about the town The signs read
People who come to H--never
leave" But the signs are up no
more since some transient wag added
a postscript to the sign: What an
ideal cemetery"
A grade teacher had been pro-
NOTED to the position of English
teacher in the high school. She
was discussing her new duties
with the superintendent and
remarked: ITS going to be 50
hard for me. You see, / have al
ways used lots of slang and now /
won't dare to use it any more"
Slang" calculated the super
intendent, believe me Alice, you've
got to cut that out now or it'll be
curtains for your

Fine Gathering at Commercial
Club Supper.

One of the finest gatherings of the
kind in many aday was the supper
and smoker by the Commercial club
in the gymnasium of the Presby-
terrain church Monday evening.
Sixty-two persons sat down to the
bounteous supper provided by the
clubs committee and served by the
Boy Scouts After the repast cigars
were passed and Marion F Reid,
president Of the club. introduced the
speaker. Rev. Axel Pearson, of
Ironwood. Many of those present
had heard Mr.. Pearson before, but
they were none the less delighted to
hear him speak again. for Mr.. Pear
son always has a message that goes
right to the point. He spoke on the
Anne and purposes of a commercial
club or organization of the kind,
an address which he
delivered to a gathering of Ironwood
Rotarians several weeks ago. He
delivered stirring address that was
well received.
All in all the affair swas a grand
success, thanks 10 the efforts Of the
committee and to the members in
bringing friends, Many expressions
that a gathering of the kind should
be held often have since been heard.
