this matron. After praising and
fiattering her and telling her what
a beautiful model she'd make, and
especially what an intelligent wom-
an she was, our Eastern city slick
er got her to invest $7S5.00 in a
fake shoppe which was supposed to
be in fine Colored section of New
York Sugar Hill, to be exact). To
come to the point-our matron
mortgaged her very lovely home to
get this $7S5 that she so foolishly
squandered. At this point, seven
months after she mortgaged her
home, she's found out that there is
no shoppe and it was all hoax.
She didn't suspect the city slicker
until two months ago, when he
stopped coming to the house lat
certain intervals he had reported to
her about the progress of the
shoppe supposedly having come di-
rectly from New York and in real
ity he had just been down in Iowa
all the time).
Her problem is this: She hasn't
told her husband about any of this
and the man that holds the mort
gage is clamping down on her for
his money. She'll have to tell her
husband mighty soon. What do you
think he'll say or do? viii he leave
her fat? That remains to be seen
anyway, we hope her luck.
Well, I'll have to be hurrying
along, but III be lookin' your way
again soon.

Hello Everybody:

Mothers Day Lament: This par
ticular mother MRS. B. M re-
ceived beautiful box of plants for
Mothers Day, all adjoining and
sweet. In the afternoon she went
downtown (if you must knOw-to
buy some shoes) and before going
locked Fido and Kitty Purr New on
the porch near the flowers. On re-
turning home later, she found all
the flowers gone, nipped clear to
the roots, all except the daisies.
Fido and Kitty looked quite indif-
ferent and remained mute on the
subject. Now, why didn't they eat
the daisies? Was it because, as
the old song goes, Daisies Won't
Tell'? Yes, it was!!!
