Example of Appreciation

Example of Appreciation
THAT appreciation of the value of a sense Of
humor still persists is reflected by the annual
report for 1887" now being circulated "to stock
holders" by one unnamed company. Here are
extracts:
Your directors estimating their confusion as
80 per cent ahead of 1886. submit the following
report for 1887:
Earnings: We are as much at sea about earn
ings as you are, owing to the fact that none of
the company officials has been able to deter
mine with any degree of certainty what the
corporation owes the Government in taxes, levies,
assessments. penalties, etc.
Ground for the new $75O,OOO mental hygiene
plant will be broken next spring. This building
is necessary for the care and rehabilitation Of
company officials and experts who have gone mad
trying to figure out how to raise operating costs
and sell goods cheaper"
Whatever else you lose, don't lose your sense
of humor. No clouds ever lasted forever. Re-
member, 'this too. will pass"

Dear Washington
By Helen EsSary

1talys representatives, gracious and entirely
unruffled, are likely to have the same effect on
a wavertng mind. It takes strong will not to
catch bit Of their national contagion and think
that "Mussolint is one Of the greatest men in
history"
It's all very confusing. But it makes for highly
civilized behavior. It's good diplomacy and it's
amusing. I salute It.
