7 We talk about the jazz blues songs
land everything else that attracts the
human eye and rouses emotions OF the
people. Some people say these things
should be discarded because they are
detrimental more than helpful. If you
look into the matter with a fair mind
Won will not agree with such state
ments. They forget that there is an
advantage to every disadvantage whe-
ther visible or invisible. To treat any
subject rightly one must look at it from
both sides, the right and the wrong, in
diligently, and bring in his decisions.
We have no idea why men argue on lit
tie things they do not understand and
try to put something before you to make
YOU think they understand. The jazz
and blues songs are all right in their
places. They are pleasing to those who
like them and annoyance to those who
do not like them. Therefore we should
be careful how we speak about those
particulars when your friends are wrap
ped up in them.
The jazz has meaning, also the blue
songs. They speak words and paint pic
lures unknown and give relief to some
thinking that the fancy is the real.
They are detrimental to those who are
not able to reason, and make the one
leave his or her job when they hear the
music. AS was walking through a GER

knocking the blues, but when they make
an impression like that they are detri-
mental When one is helped or receives
information out of them they are help
full. Otherwise detrimental.
Jazz is taking everything, not only
in dance halls but churches as well.
Everybody likes jazz. Even when a
song is played in church without jazz
the pastor will say there is no pep or
life in the song
Jazz has meaning also, takes the big
ger end of that fellow who follows the
deal on down and fails to reason. Jazz
makes helpful and non-helpful express
sions, which in terms or return make
impressions the same.
1t is all right if you know the mean
ling and can analyze and is able to judge
and put things in actions after brief
summary of the details.

jumped the creek and went toward

with their dark brown eyes, shifted,

heads away, pointedly aloof. The

She looked at him QuizZically. She
was frankly surveying him. He noted
that she was about six inches shorter
than he was-which made her five
feet six = that she was at once
slim and rounded, that she had a
short straight nose and a mouth that
was neither small nor large, neither
full-lipped nor narrow, a round chin,
a dimple in one cheek. and that her
eyes were the exact color of the lu-
