Ga TOWN
DISPLACED

Our own idea of a displac-
ed person is man who, while
still in golf clothes, stops in
to a fancy dress shop to pick
up package for the wife.
OVERHEARD
Overheard In a manhole: 1T
isn't the principle it's the
prejudice of the thing that
gets mer'
ADVICE
And to you girls who would
throw yourself at a man =
don't forget to take very care
full aim.
REGIME
Heard one about an Indian
prince who decreed that no
one was to shoot wild animals
in his country. Soon the
country was overrun with wild
beasts and the people rose up
and overthrew the prince.
This is the first case on rec
ord where the reign was call
ed on account of game!
LOVE
If you want people to love
you, always ask them ques-
tions they can answer.
HAPPENING
Cop: How did you happen
to hit this man?"
Motorist: II didn't hit him.
I waited for him to cross after
the light changed and he
fainted!"
TAXES
Tax Inspector came across
a question as he filled out a
form. Disposition of taxpay-
err" asked the QUESTIONABLE.
The tax man wrote - Very
meant"
LOGIC
The fox is a willy little ami
NAL because he knows that he
can only be skinned once.
LIVING
The most unhappy people in
the world are failures with ul-
GERS.
FACT
A florist is one person who
is firmly rooted in his busi-
ness.
LAW
The Englishman slows down
when he sees traffic signal.
The American merely checks
his pockets to see If he has the
amount of the fine.
BUSINESS
We suggest that big stim-
ulant for the moving business
could be accomplished if the
movers would build a fine
house in every community in
the land and give it away.
In this manner thousands up
on thousands of people would
move in a chain reaction even
more expansive than a cobalt
bomb.
DEAD ISSUE
Statisticians estimate that
over a billion dollars per year
are spent on funerals. It ap-
pears that the high cost of liv-
ing is interdependent on the
high cost of dying
VACATION
Taking the children to the
country for week can often
turn out to be narrowing ex.
perience especially If they
are uncultivated.
MARRIAGE
Father is busy man.
Whenever he gets daughter
off his hands he has to start
putting son-in-law on his feet
if he can still get off his
knees.
DAFFYNlTioN
An egotist is guy who
knows a good thing when he

AGE
You're getting on, brother
when you start to pursue
learning and stop trying to
learn pursuing.
HuMNN!
Parishioner: "Can I lead a
good Christian life on 80 dol
lars a week."
Reverend: "Son, that S
about all you can dot
HAPPINESS
Uncle Willie had lived with
a man and his wife for al
most ten years and many
vas the time that the couple
almost split up because of
him. 1t was a relief when
Uncle Willie died and on the
way home from the cemetery
the husband said, Dearest,
If I had not loved you so
much, / could never have put
up with your Uncle Willie"
Wife shrieked, What! Why
all this time I thought he was
YOUR Uncle Williel"
LAST WORD
If you want to drive while
drunk, make sure you have a

TWO AREA MEN CHARGED
WITH SPEEDING
Postmaster Urges Early Mailing To
Insure Delivery By Christmas Time

Checking the progress on his
Mail Early for Christmas" cam
paign, Postmaster Schlechty pre-
dicted today that the 1855 pre-
holiday season will be a real rec
ord breaker as he noted the mount
ing flood of Christmas cards and
gift packages.
The Postmaster went on to say
that the mounting volume of
Christmas mail makes it doubly
important for everyone to help on
the Mail Early for Christmas
program He warned that pack
ages mailed to out-of-state points
after this week may not be deliv-
cred in time for Christmas. He
said that the flow of Christmas
cards is running about normal but
parcel post is definitely behind
schedule and suggested that all
out-of-state parcels still to be
mailed should be sent by air par
Gel post, and pointed out that
Christmas cards addressed to the
most distant points should also be
air mailed.
Postmaster 'Schlechty reminds
us again that all gifts should be
wrapped securely with plenty of
heavy paper and tied with strong
cord. Write legibly or better yet
print the recipients full name,

street address, zone number, city
and state on all mailing labels and
Christmas cards. Send all cards by
first-class mail and be sure to in
clude your name and address on
the Christmas card envelopes.
Keep in mind that gift packages
may not be sealed, unless the re-
turn address and this notice ap-
pears: Contents, Merchandise -
May be opened for postal inspect
ion." Christmas seals and do Not
Open Until Christmas" stickers
may be Us ed but always place
them on the back of your gift par
cells or Christmas cards, leaving
the address easy to read.
Try to bring your parcels to the
postal windows before 1000 AN.
or between 1:30 and $3.50 PM. to
avoid the noon hour rush.
In conclusion. Postmaster Sch
lechty says, Remember that the
mail carriers are working late
these days and it gets dark early.
Leave your porch light on and
make sure you full name is on
your mail box and see that your
house number is readable and in
plain sight. Observance of these
suggestions will insure a Merrier
Christmas for everybody"

New Charge Filed
On Own Testimony

Morgan Buford, of Cincinnati,
was acquitted by a Madison Coun-
ty petit jury Friday of charge of
driving while intoxicated. The
charges were filed against Buford
by the State Highway Patrol on
February 6, 1855, when he was ar
rested in a parked auto nine miles
south of Plain City on U. S. Route
az, according to the report.
Buford's defense was based on
the contention that he had consum-
ed a portion of bottle of liquor
in his auto after it had stopped and
that therefore he was not guilty of
drunken driving. The jury brought
in a verdict of not guilty.
Following the verdict, Common
Pleas Judge Gerald A. Baynes an
nounced to Buford that a bill of
information had been prepared
against him by Madison County
Prosecutor Forrest E. Sidener,
charging him with a violation of
Section 4301.64 of the Ohio Revis-
ed Code, which provides that mo
person shall consume intoxicating
liquor in a motor vehicle" In his
sworn testimony, Buford had said
that he had consumed the liquor in
his car Buford pleaded not guilty
to the new charge. The section of
the code which Buford is now
charged with violating provides for
fines ranging from SOS to 5000 and
Imprisonment of from 10 days to
three months.
In addition, Buford was cited for
contempt of court. The Cincinnati
man was originally scheduled to
appear on Thursday, December 8.
When the defendant appeared on
that date, the court took notice
that he had been drinking suffici-
emily to cause ''noxious odors" to
be noticed when he took the stand.
Judge Baynes continued his trial
until Friday.
Buford was represented by the
firm of Crabbe and Tanner, Lon
don attorneys.
On Monday, Mr. Leo Daley
court bailiff, apologized to the
court and members of the jury for
any remarks he might have made
following the trial which were con-
sidered offensive by any who
heard them. Mr.. Daley was said to
have commented on the outcome
of the trial.
