FIvE. COUNT EN-, five rumors
Me had occasion TO trace to then
Nirs last week.
All discreditabae to persons OF
to institutions.
All found TO be absolutely with
out foundation.
Three were apparently the result
of pure old righteousness.
One was the result OF a misinter-
pretation Of a very commonplace
occurrence with which the party
relating the rumor was just no
familiar.
And the fifth resulted from moth
ing more or less than a miSunder'
standing.
III we must have rumors-
Why can't they relate some
thing good about people and things
why must they always be gloomy
nasty. disagreeable sort OF THINGS
Just as easy to think up a pleas
ant lie as TO think UP a disagree
able one. IS II not?
Personally. we advocate neithel
the pleasant nor the nasty rumor
The truth Is plenty good o.
plenty bad.
AS the case may be.
WORLDS FAIR in Chicago ir

And We note In q Valley con
temporary that Florida Is planning
A citrus exhibit.
Why not?
And why should not the Valley
be planning a citrus exhibit?
why let Florida and California
act as il they were the only citrus
raising sections?
why not show them up with
some luscious Valley grapefruit?
IT'S time to be thinking about II
Things like that just do not hap
