MONEY
Of all the people in the
world, we have never heard of
a lawyer going bankrupt.

After watching two lady"
wrestlers, kick, gouge and bite
each other, we have begun to
wonder about the So-called
weaker SEX.
OUGHT
Before someone else does,
we'd like to point out that a
man who gets plastered on
homemade likker is merely
stewed on his own juice.
ADVERTISING
See by the papers that lead
ing lipstick manufacturers
will spend $2O,0OO,000 for ad-
vcrtising next year. This is
the highest price ever paid for
lip service. Perhaps this is an
other Smear" campaign?
WASTE
We would like to have a
picture of the wastebaskets
in Madison county these days
which would show the am
mount of "boxholder" mail
which is thrown away. This is
really throwing money down
the drain. Our own mail is
loaded with this stuff, much
of which we doubt ever gets
read. In our years of news
papering we've yet to see a
newspaper thrown away with
out being read. Our customers
pay for the paper and they
read it. Cost of "boxholder"
ads are said to be cheaper but
newspaper ad at least has
the distinction of being read
and is not forced" down the
prospects throat.

Heavens! Is there no end to

GOVERNMENT
The government recently
granted some western Indians
their rights. If this thing
keeps up, the Indians had bet

clan might want to give the
whole country back to them.
FREEZE
A fur coat is most always
bought with cold cash..
GOLF
Wonder what it feels like to
miss a putt worth S95, 900?
That is what we saw on tele-
vision the other night. AS it

game?

Christian Science
|LessOn-SermOn

How spiritual understanding Of
mans scientific unity with God
overcomes fear and establishes
harmony will be brought out at
Christian Science services tomor-
row.
The lesson Sermon entitled
Doctrine of Atonement'' includes
the following passages from the
Bible (Psalms 81: Is III:
70 Lord, open thou my lips; and
my mouth shall shew forth they
praise. For thou desirest not sac
rnlce; else would / give it; thou
deilghtest not in burnt offering. The
sacrifices of God are a broken
spirit: a broken and a contrite
neart, o God, thou wilt not de-
spise."
From "Science and Health with
Key to the Scriptures" by Mary
Baker Eddy the following selec-
TONS will also be read (2O2:3):
The scientific unity which exists
between God and man must be
wrought out in life-practice, and
GODS will must be universally
done"

Hopes THEY'LL

LONDON R - Do dogs 60 to

thinks they debut if they don't
he won't want to stay there.
Judge Tudor Rees gave the opin-
ion yesterday in hearing a claim
for damage against Mrs. Lucy
Prosser, former tenant of a house
in suburban Banstead.
Mrs. Prosser said she bred dogs,
but after complaints from her
neighbors she agreed not to let
them in her house.
"But that is like shutting out a
member of the family" said
Judge Rees. ''What is the use Of
having such a faithful friend if you
cannot have him in the house."
eff answering fidelity and un.
failing affection are passports to
paradise all dogs will have hon.
ored places there" he added
"And if l do not find dogs in
paradise, it will not be paradise
for me and l shall probably apply
for transfer to the other place."
The judge found Mrs. Prossel
responsible for the damage to the
house but added: 81 do not blame
the dogs"

Church of Rock Bazaar Set For November Ii

The Woman of tie Church of the
Rock met last Monday evening
with Mrs. Ralph Noble, 907 White
head Street. The main question
with which they were confronted
was the conflict in the date set for
the Bazaar.
They were informed that the
School Band Tag Day had been
set the same as that for the Ba-
zaar, November 13.
The Women decided that since
this date had been chosen some
two months ago that they could
not change it. The Bazaar will be
held at the Chapel, 535 Francis
Street, Nobember 13.
Family Night Oct. 70
The Women are sponsoring a
Family Night dinner each month
also and the next one viii be next
Wednesday, October 20 at $50

This event has proven very popu-

them an opportunity to visit and
eat together once each month.
Each family brings a covered
dish which is shared with their
neighbors. Mrs. Ruth Evans and
Mrs. Sally Padgett are in charge
of these dinners.
