land) Daily Mail contains a
tid-bit which refers to our own
London, Ohio. Seems that a
Daily Mail reporter in New
York telephoned many of the
Londons here in the United
States and asked about any
Coronation plans we might
have. London's Chief of Police,
Bud Clark, is quoted as saying
II know of nothing planned
here, and if there were any
thing, I'd sure know. Say,
when is this Coronation any
way?"
London, Kentucky, was next
on the list and the town clerk
there, a Miss Tuggle, was
quoted as saying, mo srh,
Abs afraid we don't plan
nuthin' for that Coronation.
Anyways, the mayors away
sick for several weeks and we
don't do nuthin' without him."
Mr.. E. Jahr of London, Wis
conSin, is said to have said,
"We're all Norwegians and
we're not much interested in
what's going on in London,
England"
The article then quotes one
Ollie Sola of London, Mime
sofa, We've done nothing
here, we're too busy farming
our land"
It was the same answer in
other Londons-Arkansas, In
diana, Oregon, Texas and
West Virginia or SO the
Daily Mail says. Personally we
think that the so-called re-
porter" who sent the item in is
Just the dream of some office
hoy. Matter of fact, we don't
think Miss Tuttle of London,
Kentucky, says, "Ah's afraid"

PEOPLE
National survey reveals that
there are 25 million home
owners. in the u. S. and that
the average American family
is made up of 4 and two-tenths
persons. At our house, the
two-tenths of a person is US
ually referred to as Dad"
HOLY MATRIMONY
Usually, the man of the
house meets a marital crisis
with a firm hand--holding
box of candy and a handful of
flowers! And another thing
the biggest hazards on a golf
course are not necessarily the
WATER hazards.
KID STUFF
my, N.Y." said the lady to
the little girl, Sixteen child
rem in your family. 1t must be
terribly expensive for so
many"
Little girl, I'VE don't buy
them, lady, we just raise
them!"
SiGN-O-TIMES
Nice lady sent this ina
florist has this sign on the
back of his truck These
flowers aren't for you but
unless you drive carefully the
next load may be yours!"
(Thanks to Mrs. Davis.)
RELIGION
Heard tell of an old west
ern sky-pilot who. rode into
real bad town. He remarked
on the lack of churches as
compared with the number of
saloons. Old prospector spat
out a cud of tobakker and
unused, "Wa-al, there may be
some that love the Lord
around here but hits a fact
that they shore as hell hate
each other!'
LIkkER
And speaking of liquor,
(who was?) our good friend,
Old Haywood Snugg, presi-
dent of the local unit of Alco-
holics Unanimous, says that
he went to the doctor the
other day and the doc told
him that the demon rum might
be his ruination.
Haywood asked the medico
what the report showed and
the doctor answered, "Hey-
wood, old boy, it would seem
that there is a small percent
age of blood getting into your
alcohol system!"
REMINDER
Just to spoil everything, we
remind you that a vacation is
a proposition where you get in
the pink by going in the red.
OUCH!
Gable. "I want to marry
you. Mable."
Mable: But have you seen
my mother?"
Gable: yeah, but I'll marry
you anyway"
LAST WORD
A detour is the toughest
distance between two points.
