Sc je odlocila, dala sestaviti pro-

Ko je prisel Chicot po odgo-

THE BRIGHTER SIDE
By Damon Runyon-

good-time Charleys for the con-
ventions, and I would not want
my name handed down as that of
the scoundrel who out of prac-
tically a whole lifetime asked
in the name of the Almighty for
about u hours Of decency.
DUT what has really deferred

big thing out of this original
suggestion of mine is the
thought of what the boys would

the booze peddlers and the
booze listers because they

impersonator.
WOMEN, etc. A fellow
w who / know conscientiously
tries to be a good husband was
telling me that when he had an
argument with his wife she in
variably snapped:
"Don't yell at me. Talk lower.
The neighbors will hear you"
So the next time there was an
argument he made it a point 10
talk in g. low voice. His wife
then screamed:
''For Pete's sake, don't talk
in that whining monotone. Speak
up like a man so a person can
hear YOU"
(Women are difficult people
to get along with at times.
Especially married women)
