Ralph Paine, whose posthumous
novel, I'm Zanzibar" was recently
published, once had a job in small
grocery that catered to the negro
trade employed in nearby sawmill
Molasses was a favorite commdity
and the job Of getting sufficient
containers for it was a problem until
young Paine advocated paper bags
which worked so long as the customer
was careful in carrying them.
One night the store was crowded
with negroes who had come for their
weeks supply of molasses. Two of
them got into an argument. Instead
Of drawing a razor, one of the ne
groes swung his bag of molasses and
burst it on the others head. The cx-
plosion touched off a general riot
AS police described it, '"That store
rained molasses. Every niggers' wool
was full Of it," Ensued rapidly ra-
zors, police, complete wreck of the
store, and unjustly, it would appear,

A YANKEE CONTRACTOR VISITS
EGYPT
Supposing the Sphinx falls pray to
erosion
In a couple of decade perhaps,
And, after rumbling and muffled
explosion
Is tumbled in utter collapse;
Is that any reason to trouble or
worry
OF even for missing a meal?
We will rear new Sphinx in it's
place in a hurry,
A good one, Of concrete and steel.
supposing the pyramids crumble as
under
AS the old things eventually must,
Will we stand round the ruins ex-
pressing our wonder
That it took them such ages to
bust?
Not we; for new stones and supplies
we will wire,
And these .tottering tombs Well re-
place
With beautiful new one, three hun
dred feet hlSher
And taking up ten times the space.
Old Cheop's no doubt drew the foolish
deduction
(His faith in himself was sublime)
That he was whiz at the art of
construction,
And his fame would endure for all
time.
But most of the stuff that he built
is now rotten,
And soon it will totter and fall
For the ruler who soon will be wholly
forgotten
Was not such a bear=cat at ALL
But when we show up with our en-
gines and winches,
Folks will see what we think of
the past,
We will figure in feet where he fig
ured in inches
And the work that we put in will
last.
The sands of Sahara will blossom
with wonders
Stretching over it mile after mile
All put up to stay, and without any
blunders,
In the good old American style.

the mans wages.
When the cook had received the
increased money at the end of the
month he said, "Why have you paid
me more?"
Because you have been such a
good cook" his employer replied.
Then you have been swindling me
all these years." said. the Chinese.
