WEEKLY QUOTATION: Most
of the misery which reclamation
of blameless actions. or the OBJ
struction of honest endeavars
brings upon the world is inflict-
ed by men that propose no ad-
vantage to themselves but the
satisfaction Of poisoning the ban
quet which they cannot taste, and
blasting the harvest which they
have no right to reap".-Samuel
Johnson.

WHAT THE HEP CATS ARE
SAYING is that a certain
good looking lady who has just
come to town and another whose
been around a little while longer
is getting to know a lot of people
and if they don't watch out
a. lot of people will know them
and that's what the Hep Salts
mean when they look up and
see a good looking gal coming
and say, All, man, she's don run
out.

somebody wrote the book which
they didn't think of until they'd
read it and what the folks in
tended to say what did the writ
ing :. just read two new books
and all | got to say is
they're all right . j.. one of them,
sorta poetry like is NORTH STAR
