LIVING

1t says in the book that you
can't buy friendship. But what
of the politician who buys"
votes with subsidies and with
the taxpayers money too?
SELLING
A Chicago auto dealer is Of
fering deal wherein you can
buy a car AND garage in
the same package deal. This is
the first time that we have
ever heard of an automobile
accessory with overhead doors.
HUH7
Our idea of widespread at
tention is a fat lady wearing
shorts.
GOLF
And then there's the one
about the two Texas golfers
who were found playing golf
for a country club hole!
FALL
This is the time of year
when Junior, who has been too
tired to NOW the yard all sum-
mer, dons forty pounds of pads
and attempts to knock his
brains out over a egg-shaped
bah no bigger than his head.
FACT
"A chain is no stronger than
its weakest link" so how can
the human do any better with
one missing altogether?
WISH
We wish that the fellows
who name hurricanes would
continue on through the alpha
bet especially so that
names beginning with x, Y
and z could be used.
SUGGESTION
Why settle for just being
difficult when, with a little
more effort, you can be impos-
sible?
SPEED
Police are having a time
with the high-speed autos.
Seems that the drivers don't
hasr the siren at the speed of
sound.
RICHES
The reason so many success
full people forget the friends
they had when they were poor
is because they didn't have any
friends when they were poor!
MARRIAGE
We heard about guy who
spent so much dough trying to
impress a sweet young thing
that he had to marry her for
his money.
GRUEsoME
Latest fashion in Italy is
white lipstick, Only thing we
can say about this gruesome
fashion is that it may do away
with a lot of red faces. And an
other thing we aren't In
favor of the new little boy
look which is said to be the
fashion choice this year. Meth
er are we in favor of the lit
tie girf' look. We like the
big girl look and think that
when all the ballots are in the
big girl look will win-hands
down.
CURED
The psychiatrist asked the
newly cured patient what he
proposed to do now that he
had been pronounced sane.
The little man replied, We'll,
since I've passed the bar exam,
I may become lawyer. Too,
/ have a degree in engineering
and thus / may get a job with
an aircraft company"
He then fell into deep
thought and finally blurted
out ION the other hand /
NAV become an electric fan"
PoLLYTlcRs
See where the citrus grow
ers are asking for subsidies to
bolster sagging markets. We
suppose some wise guy will
dub this maneuver - lemon
aid!"
CARTOON
Friend of the column sent
us a cartoon clip showing a
crotchety ole geezer debating
his will to his lawyer. Says the
old boy And ] leave my
entire fortune, in fee simple, to
nv faithful dog, Spot. And
now go out and buy me a dog
that has spots"
SELLING
Your local newspaper, Wher-
ever you live, is your towns
best argument for your town.
IT is the best medium to keep
local business local. Every out
of-town sheet offers merchan-
disc for sale which competes
with your own sales. Your To-
cal paper is your best defense
against out-of-town competi-
ton.
LAST WORD
A Go-Getter is guy who,
never having heard that II
can't be done, goes out and
does what the pessimist thinks
Is impossible.
