TWO WIVES
By william Henry Huff

When Sarah's husband lost his
job
Through no fault Of his own
And Joined the biggest idle
mob
The world has ever known,
She kept a smile upon her face,
Nor did she hang her head,
But soon went out and found a
place
Where she could earn their bread.
When Polly's husband lost his
job
Because his firm went broke,
She said. you know l never
shirk
When work Is to be found"
And then she said, "If I must
work
I I. don't need you around.
Now Poiy's home is broken down
And Polly's morals, too.
For in the toughest spot in town
She's with the toughest crew,
| While Sarah lives in sumptious
style
In luxury and love,
/ And angels look on her and
smile
From Heaven up above.

Biggest Pen Pal Club
Has I Million on LIST
In 164 Countries

COPENHAGEN, Nov. 26.
(NANA) youth since World
War II has become increasingly
interested in what goes on in
other countries, declares Den
marks ex-schoolmaster, ex-in-
ternational footballer and pio-
neer Scout, DR.. Even v. Knudsen.
THE proof of this" the doctor
told me, "is that since 1945 hum
dreds of thousands of boys and
girls have asked for pen pals
abroad"
DR.. Knudsen should know, for
he is the founder of the worlds
biggest pen friendship club with
2 million members in 164 coun-
tries. On a rough estimate post
Offices all over the world sell an
extra A million stamps year
because of him.
This year the club is celebrat-
ing its 25th anniversary. And to
mark this event DR.. Knudsen will
publish the first "Pen Pal An
nual" to tell the story of the Or
g2niZation.
Just Pays For Itself.
This is no money-making
racket. The scheme just pays for
itself no more. It's aim is simply
to promote international under

under IA, or any one over 81, but
essentially with YOUTH" he re-
lated. "All they have to do is to
send two five-cent international
reply coupons from the nearest
post office. They are then sent
the name of q pen friend chosen
at random from among many
thousands of other applicants.
THE name of each is also sent
to three other boys or girls in
different parts of the world.
Those who wish can specify the
countries where they want pen

pals, and whether they wish to
correspond with a boy or a girl.
Most prefer the opposite sex!"
Apart from the war years the
plan has been snoWballing along
since 1926, putting English boys
in touch with Chilean girls,
Americans in touch with Indo-
nesians, and, says DR.. Knudsen,
"the international language is

and then he added, "and vision
