DADDY'S A LIE ONE
A very small GIRL of our acquaintance, was at CHURCH a few
Sundays ago and the MINISTER happened to be one of the OLD
FASHIONED kind and he preached a REGULAR old fashioned
SERMON which made quite an IMPRESSION on the young
MISS. 'For a long time after getting HOME she was very
THOUGHTFUL, but finally she UNBURDENED her mind about
a FOLLOWS: "Mother, there isn't REALLY any DEVIL, is
there ? He's just like SANTA CLAUS, isn't he ? He's DADDY."
And that causes US to remark that when the YOUNGSTERS
begin to talk about SANTA CLAUS ifs time for ELDERS to
begin to THINK about him, and the Capital Drug Store.
Moral: When, you come here to do your gift shopping well try
w . like the devil to please you. ,
