.MY AUTO 'TIS OF T11KK
o
My auto, 'tis of thee, short road to
poverty, of thee I chant. 1 blew a pile
of dough on you three years ago;
now you refuse to go, or won't, or
can't. Through town and countryside
you were my joy and pride, a happy
day. I loved the gaudy hue, the nice
white tires new, but you're down and
out tor true, In every way. To thee,
old rHtllu-bux, came many bumps and
kuocks, for thee I grieve. Badly the
top is worn; the whooping cough af
fects thy horn, I do believe. Thy per
fume swells the breeze, while good
folks choke and wheeze as we pass by,
I paid for thee a price, 'twould buy a
munition twice; now everybodys yell
ing "Ice" I wonder why? Thy mo
tor has the grip, thy spark plug ha
the pip and woe Is thine. I, too, have
suffered chills, fatigue and kindred
Ills, endeavoring to pay my bills,
since thou were mine. Gone li my
bank roll now no more 'twould choke,
the cow, as once before. Yet, if I
bad the mon, so kelp me John
men, I'd buy a car again and speed
ome more Auto Link.
He Wa Proptor of the Town
Not loug ago, the story runs, a trav
eling salesman visited a certain
mall town and sold the proprietor of
Its general store an order of Jewelry.
When the Jewelry arrived It was not
a represented, and the merchant con
sequently returned It. But the whole
sale house nevertheless attempted to
collect the bill . and drew a sight draft
i on the merchant through the local
bank, which returned the draft un
bonorud. The wholesalers then wrote to the
postmasted about the flnunclul stand
ing of the merchant and the postmas
ter replied laconically that It was O.
K.
By return mail the wholesalers ask
ed iiim to collect the account and they
received the following; reply. .
! "The undersigned is the merchant
on whom you attempted to palm off
your worthless goods. The undcrsign
i ed is president and owner of the hank
i to which you sent your sight draft,
i Tbe undersigned I the postmaster to
t whom you wrote, and the undersign
I ed 1 the lawyer whoBe service you
sought, to obtain your nefarious bu
siness. If tbe undesigned were not
also pastor of the church at this
place tie would tell, you to go to hell,

I There is a shocking shortage of pa
per, no doubt, but the shortage of
I Ideas is even worse. Our opinion of
I good reporting is the old-fashioned
! Origsby Junction style, thus:
"April the middle,
Fit as a fiddle.'
"Ray Lounsbury ha lost a horse."
"Constable Sheely is hunting dogs"
"The meat market will be open
next week. The other one burned."
"Percy Montague 1b going to
