SAYINGS OF POOR RICHARD, JR.
As Reported BY Victor ROsewater

Industry and Thrift are two virtues
which have no substitutes.
For sustaining the WagewOrker's s
self-respect and continued useful
ness, an ounce of employment is
worth a pound of dole.
The business depression afflicteth
both free-trade countries and pro-
tective-tariff countries, creditor
countries and debtor countries,
wet countries and dry counuias-
verify, by all tests, our Uncle
Samuels family fareth easier than
any of their overseas cousins.
Radio broadcasting warneth the
wordy political orator to look to
his terminal facilities if he would
avoid cloture.
AS a slogan, Law. Observance"
should wear as well as Law En-
fOrcement."
Balanced budgets provide talisma-
mic benefits only so long as held
in balance. Wherefore, it behOOV-
eth us not to let public eXpendi-
ture outrun public revenue a mo-
ment longer than absolutely nee
essary.
Attention to thine own affairs re-
maineth for thee a safer guide
than minding other folks business
unlimited to do so.
Milford chronicle., 1931-10-30

Parent-LoOk here, my boy, you
are in the second grade and still
can't count over 10. What will be-
come of you? Junior-Aw, don't
worry Pop. I'll go into one of those
businesses where they advertise,
Nothing over 10 Cents"

No matter how deep William Bee
be descends in his diving bell he
finds the water blue.
