bank, and he gives me 81 for the
actual groceries they eat. That
doesn't pay half, but I don't mind
that. 1t leaves them $3.50 to
spend.
The girl is always pouty and
dissatisfied. She goes out every
afternoon to window shop and
tries on clothes she knows she
can't get. She comes home and
Sneers at our furnishings and tells
what she is going to get. I hope
to God she does, and soon.
Now she has got it into her
head that she wants to rent my
double and put in some furniture
her divorced sister has stored
some place. She says, You had
as well rent to us as any one"
That reads well, but would never
get the rent, and I have got to
have the rent or none of us will
have a place to lay our heads.
My wife is soft and she says
better let them have it or we will
get a bad name for being trouble
makers. I will let them keep their
room, and my wife bought them a
little table and set of dishes so
they could eat alone if they want
to. However, I won't have the
girls kin eating here with me.

who has a job or who is very
much worried about it either.
I'll be darned if I let them have

Answer - You are neither low

the rest Of your family lacks. IN
less some one keeps a firm hand or
the purse strings, there won't be
enough money to go around, and
you'll have a load which you car
not carry. II they haven't sense
enough TO figure this out for them
selves, then you will have to SET
your foot down on their foolhardy
plans and let them think what they
will.

families with a rod of iron. 1t &C.

Time Changes Men

The people Of the little town of
Gainesville. ILL.,. have what they con-
slider a strange story to tell the
world. But 1t is q perfectly natural
one when we stop to consider the
things which make people that
way" whatever the way may be.
It concerns one Corum MCGEE. who
was known as wild one during
the period Of his youth.
Old churchgoers can remember
when, during services. q bird flew
into the Gainesville church. Corum
MCGEE whipped out pistol and took
a few shots at 1t: paid $50 for dis
turbing the peace.
Again he started . watermelon
sind fight which fingers in the me-
nory OF the town as quite an affair.
His brother rode q horse into
church, but everyone blamed Corum
for putting him up to It.
The finale Of Corum McGee's early
church going came when he. his
brother and two others thought it
would be great Joke to burn up the
church organ. They did. The dea-
cons were enraged and filed charges.
A long-suffering town applauded the
action OF the jury which sent them
to prison for year. No one ever
thought any good would come from
Corum MCGEE. He was an incurable
roughneck.
That was six years ago and time
has wrought changes.
Gainesville is having big revival
now and people come from far and
near to hear the vigorous preacher
Eighty have hit the sawdust trail
already. The revivalist is Corum
MCGEE.
The same bent for raising hell"
In church still guides him but 1t has
been turned into new and more con-
structive channels. He breaches with
the same fire and energy with which
he used to play destructive pranks.
There's some sort Of moral in that
Many a case OF cussedness is only
misdirected energy.
