AS USUAL the editorial dept.
gets things all bawled up. When
they write about the Genthe's and
the automobile biz they must re-
member that Walter sells Plymouth
and Dodge cars. George sells Plym-
outh and DeSoto. Not vice versa or
even etcetera. How about job
boss? Any damfool knows that.
Better watch out that someone
doesn't take after you with
hatchet. Walter Bazily, over on
Fourth street, got Is Of his chick
ems swiped. He says one OF them
has got q. beak like a parrot. I could
understand it if someone SWITCHED
one of his ducks cause this Is open
season for quacks.
Better get your pants pressed
for q week from tonight. The Jay
Gees are going to honor you Tor
something. What or why seems to
be the big mystery. (See, I'm a
good humor writer, too)
Some guy who wants to get some
place stole the steps from one OF
Al Herron's new homes. You oughta
look into this. He's good account
II: the id dept. and We mustn't bite
the hand what feeds us.
Too bad about that Antoine street
kid who ran away from an accident
i'm Ecorse. Cops nabbed him before
he coud crawl under the bed.
You missed it, boss. A wopper
OF q brawl at the Log Cabin. One
sailor got bounced over the bean
with a beer bottle. When you write
the story mention that it was
Strohs. Nothing like plugging the
ad accounts. (See, I'm the kind OF
a guy you need on the editorial
staff. never miss a chance to ring
the cash register)
When you pass out the orchids
toss in bunch for Mary Nick
out at 764 Riverbank. She's not
scared of tough eggs. Saturday
night a coupla buns tried to Snitch
her purse. Mary let out one lusty
holler and you shoulda seen them
scran1.
You are not supposed to break
that story about your bringing q
rocket firing warship here until
the okay comes from the Navy
Don't look now but the story about
the ships coming to Detroit broke
In city papers on Sunday. Ha, ha
they blitzed you.
That new Element dame in edi.
torial sure packs a mean type
writer. The boys at city hall won'
be picking up her lunch checks fol
a long, long time. Skinny thing
amt she.
Let me know when you are ready
to move into your big, new office
I want to comb my hair and veal
a clean shirt that day. Do we have
to knock to get in. or are you ;
rich mans son just working fo
the sake of democracy?
I know what they are going t,

Test Qualify Of Victory Garden Soil
by DEAN HALLIDAY
Released by Central Press Association

DO YOU know anything about
the soil in your Victory garden?
Upon its composition and fertil-
ity depends the success or failure
of your Victory vegetables. Why
not look into the matter?
Take one or more representa-
tive soil samples from the garden
area and have them analysed. The
accompanying Garde raph
shows how to take a soil sample.
In most states gardeners can
have their soils tested without
charge by merely sending SAM
pies and data to the state agri-
cultural experiment station
Helpful information concerning
a soil includes: 1. The type: clay,
silt, sand or muck loan along
with a color description. 2. The
degree Of acidity or alkalinity.
8. The quantities Of available
PHOSPHORUS and potash. Nitro
