If the fair board escapes a dam

has the hatchet out for hot dog
dealer at the fairgrounds.
Morsey, who we hear prefers to
be called anything else in the die

fair this week and decided to in
vest in hot dog. He watched the
dealer pick up a bun, admlniste4'
a dose of mustard and hand him
the finished product. Alas, when
he opened it up there was no wei

Morsey doesn't know whether the
hot dog man had a string tied to
the meat and kept using it over ana

However, whatever Morsey lost,
Frank Donaldson collected. Frank
ordered q piece of pie at one OF
the fair booths and when the wait

One last word: it seems to me that

ment those of the other. That this has
been achieved by the comparatively

sition.
Some of the objectors cling to the
Victorian idea that wife cannot
be a wage-earner without lowering her
husbands standing - socially as we'll
as financially. There is also resentment
against the wife who continues with
her job because she wants to keep
up with the Joneses. 1t is true, of
course, that many women and men
do care very much about having what
the Joneses have. and doing what they
do. Sometimes such people are social
climbers; more often they are just
trying to live up to the best pattern.
The contrary extreme of sliding down

avoidance of nice people. for fear of
being thought climber. or from a
feeling of inferiority. is certainly not
conducive to happiness.
