Estacada State Bank Officers Sandy Basket Bailers Here Friday We are adding a New Department which will be known as the GOOD AND DAD MANNERS. And tha B ra n d Used in the P r iv a c y of the Hi me Circi«. There tire three so. is o f lnuniiera— good, hud ttntl the sort that ure used in the privacy of the home circle. The lust named sort are usually the worst. Good manners seldom come naturally to any mule. This is proved by the fact th at they must generally I k * hurn- mered into small boys with u large, ro- bust cane, the flat of the hand or the reur side of a hairbrush. As the boy grows to manhood he displays Bis n a tive bad m anners by telling his wife w hat he’d like to say to the tiresome folk who oorne to call and the peopl* who give parties which he is expected to attend. His early training, how ever, prevents him from exhibiting hla bad m anners in public. Occasionally a male child Is blessed with good man- nerg from birth, but he usually expires with exceptional thoroughness shortly before or immediately after hla fifth birthday. Men with bad m auuers are generally very successful in life because their competitors and opismentM lose their tempers, thus making It easy for the persons with the bad m anners to de feat them. Before a bad mannered per son becomes wealthy he is known as a selfish boor. Afterward he is said to be eccentric. There is grave danger that while a bad munnered fierson is still In the boor class some strong minded and strong m ussed individual may resent his bad m anners and spread his fea tures hither and you over his face with a few brisk and well directed blows of 0 pair of No. 11 fists. If one cares to run the risk, bad inuuners are great things on which to gamble.—Kenneth L. Huberts in Life.
