Weather Vanes and

Poets have often alluded to us
poor mortals as "sailors on the
Sea of Life." They have , neg
lected to say that . we muse keep
our sails trimmed to the trade
. winds if we expect to get any-.
where, but of course that Is an
unpoetic fact. Once we are be
calmed our beautiful sails become
limp and our creditors become
urgent.
. When we see the importance of
keeping' our little craft In the
trade winds, we appreciate a good
weather vane to tell- which way
they are blowing.
