Karl r. Koerper, editor of the

lowed by pastors of various sects,
and the purpose is the elimination
of the whisker regime in religion.

are heartily in favor of the idea. 4
The most opposition Is from be-

that are to be replaced by the
smooth, unfurrowed brow Of youth
Koerper, enthusiastically in the
lead, insists that:

How can you be sure that the one you

Nothing about the loaf itself can guide
you. To all appearances, two loaves may
be practically identical. Yet one may be
at the very top of the scale in point of
nourishment, the other at the very bottom.
No wonder you are often puzzled to
know which of these many competing
breads you should select!

the entire country from coast to coast

A delegate from California, in half

"Say, old man. said the friend when

newly arrived one. "Say, don't make

My Fauorite Stories
By lRuiN 5. coep
Remote From the Real
Centers

Distances, as someone has so aptly
said, are all relative. Also, much de-
Ponds upon ones point of view.
There is the story Of the Texas cow
boy from beyond Brownsville who
made trip to Dallas and upon his
return stated to a group of his friends
that he didn't believe he'd ever 90
Up North again-he didn't care for
"the way them Yankees lived"
Also there is the little yarn relating
TO the Death valley prospector who,
having made strike, paid his first
visit to Chicago and Endorsed the
place by saying:
"She looks to me like she ought to
make permanent camp"
But of yarns of Shis sort the one ]
place first in my own gallery of
standard favorites has to do with
Wyoming ranch foreman who was
sent east by his employer in charge
Of carload of polo ponies. He was
gone four weeks. When he arrived
back at the ranch he wore an air Of
unmistakable pleasure and relief.
Gee" he said otis good to git
home again. SO fur as I'm concerned
I don't want never to travel no more"
Didn't you like New York; asked
one of the hands.
"Oh, It's all right In its way" he
said, but l don't keer for It,"
whats chiefly the matter with
itY
"Oh." he said, cts so dad blame
far frum everywhere"
