OF course, there are always those
most fortunate Cor should / say un-
fortunately individuals who are
faced with the bleak and dreary
prospect OF another hard and strer-
uous days work, upon arising, all
on 4 Saturday morning. Although
this prospect may seem to forpode
q dismal day, there Is always q cer-
tain amount OF monetary conpen-
sation involved in the proposition.
And although those of us who are
still fun and fancy free" on Sat-
urdays may scorn the mere sugges-
ton OF work or Job, I'm sure we
all still have the utmost respect for
those crisp, green objects called
dollars" which those more indus
trious souls receive as recompense
for their services.

tarry longer in consideration OF the
person who has a job to LOOK ior-
ward to every Saturday. whether
with enthusiasm or not, as the case
may be. Instead, let us concern
ourselves with the adventures and
misadventures of typical mass OF
human protoplasm, during an aver

A survey of convention battles in
other populous counties showed the
loyalists with % delegates clearly in
