In fact, a lot of it is downright bad. But nobody even thinks to question or to criticize.

From where I sit, it’s a heap more important to be a poor fiddle player, than not to play at all. More important to be a part of the American scene— with its commu nity music, home entertainment, friendly glass of beer — than to hold out for professional perfec tion. (Besides, I like to play the fiddle—even badly!)

"S c iW .S U f NOW TH ERE’S ALWAYS PLENTY OF HOT WATER!" Lucky kids! Lucky family! An automatic GAS u a ter heater has just been installed in their home. N o more waiting for hot water whether it’s fo r Dad's shave, the children's baths, or Mother’s dishes or laundry. Day or night, they have only to turn a tap to get all the clean hot water they need — and presto! just like magic, the blue gas flame heats more water quickly, ready for the next turn of the t a p . . . all automatically, too. The whole family’s pleased, too, with the economy of GAS water heating — just a few cents a day for a continual and abundant supply of hot water for all of them. t4<j meaaute paaaca E V E R Y B O D Y LOSES even Me old people «do a te exploited Ay il l lacA eu f NEW A UT OMA T I C DEFEAT THIS MEASURE WITH THE DECEPTIVE TITLE V 3 T E 315 X N O o n N O V . 5 J Paid A d v e rtis e m e n t C o m m itte e A g a in s t JN în c o m s T s « .
