"a Town


A guaranteed annual wage,
a guaranteed annual bonus, a
guaranteed annual vacation
with pay, and a guaranteed
profit sharing plan are ok.
but what this country needs is
guaranteed annual promise
from the Man upstairs that the
boss doesn't go broke in the
meantime.
DO 1T NOW
In order to promote eff
cheney in his business a big
wheel posted hundreds of DO
It-Now" signs about the prem
ises. Friend met him on the
street some weeks later and
remarked, Harry, you look
terrible. What in the world is
the matter with your"
Harry pondered and replied,
well, it's those damned signs
/ put up down at the plant.
Two days after l put 'em up
my secretary ran off with the
chief clerk, the janitor eloped
with the chamber maid, three
typists went to South America
and the office boy punched me
on the nose"
OUCH!
And then there's the one
about the want-ad that ap-
peared in a midwest newspa-
per Lady with trailer
wants to meet man with car.
Object =. to get hitched."
$64 1000 QUESTION
AS the man in the Cadillac
convertible rode past, the lit
tie dirty-faced boy yelled :.
"Hey stupid! Which question
did you miss ?"
MARRIAGE
Man over in Paint township
asked for a divorce on the
grounds that his mother-in-
law always came for a visit
during the holidays. Judge
told him that he didn't think
that it was unreasonable for
her to do this. Man said to
the Judge: Ordinary holidays
would be alright but she also
comes on Bastille Day, Elec-
ion Day, Grounding Day,
Valentines Day, st. Swithin's
Day and she'll probably be
here on Resurrection Day!"
OUCH!
And then there's the one
about the nudist camp that
went broke when it got too
much in arrears!
MISTAKE
The greatest mistake being
made by Americans is that
they think they get something
for nothing when they get it
from the Government.
LIVING
1t is foolish to resent grow
ing old-you may even be de-
MED the privilege!
FACT
It is our contention that the
majority of "self-made" men
had the aid and counsel of
numerous other persons who
do not consider themselves in
the self-made category.
CHRISTMAS
Again this year we are do
ing something little different
at Christmas time when we
put on a free movie for as
many kids as we can. The idea
is purely for the entertainment
and edification for the youngs-
ters who will someday become
subscribers to our newspapers.
This idea is perhaps long
range good will promotion but
ii isn't our sole reason for put
ting on the show. 1t is really
our way of trying to make as
many kids happy for a couple
of hours at Christmas time as
we can. The good will is there
but fun is the important thing
right now.
NEW YEAR
There is hardly anything
that will take the sting out OF
a New Years resolution quick
er than a short memory.
PRICES
When we see something adj
vertised at popular prices"
we cometimes think that it's
merely the management talk
ing to itself.
AGE
Age does have its compen-
sations. AS you grow older
fewer and fewer things have
enough impact to make your
conscience hurt.
HAZARD
Friend of ours tells us that
his idea of a traffic hazard is
drunken Indian driving a
motorcycle in hail storm.
LAST WORD
A gossip is one who tpYs
about others; a bore is one
who talks about himself. But
a brilliant conversationalist is
Just a guy who talks about
