This Is the statement of Lothar W. Faber, one of the leading pencil makers of the world. Why should the American use four times as many pencils as the European? Mr. Faber says the prime reason Is waste. The American throws away a pencil when it Is only half used. He cuts off a lot of It In unnecessary sharpening. He Is thoughtless, careless. The European holds on to the pencil to the last frac tion of wood and lead. Tried It on the Wife. The other day Jones heard a good conundrum and decided to try It on his wife.
