There is nothing to justify pes

THE question is whether we can

The Importance Of sound mon

that a decline in textile business

The major problem Of the

Alternative to Indirect Control
Is Government Control
More recognition should be

sound money and the tendency
to believe that a new era can

DR.. Brown. who arrived on our

"One day In class he hauled

for think or opine. Another word
we used was 'catterwampus,
meaning crooked, not fitting or
out Of alignment.
AFTER DR.. Brown finished with
me ! became more particular IN
my choice Of words"
This would seem to indicate
pretty definitely that "copacetic"
or its variant "copusthetic" ante
dates Bill Robinson's use Of the
word. It also indicates that DR..

The queen Of clubs was opened
and Mr.. Heinsite won with the
ace and returned the jack. Mr..
Abel won the second trick with
the king Of clubs. He reasoned
soundly that. on the bidding, the
ace Of spades was much more
likely to be on his right than
on his left.
Since the Jack and ten of
spades were also outstanding, it
stood out that spades should be

good enough.
At trick three Mr.. Abel led to

played the ten and the queen
won. Another diamond was now
