PLEASE DON'T KID US (Oregon City Enterprise) i Have you noticed the delightful shortage of busybodics with the pro gress of the age? What has become of them and why have they stopped be ing busy about other people's busi ness? Their meddlesomeness was probably due to lack, of Interests of their own. Life has now become more complicat ed, more hustling, and broader, and tho narrow little souls who had noth ing to do but eop out front behind their curtains at Life as It went by, sit up and take notice. Kmpty-handed and empty-minded Women have been set busy In Industry, In welfare work. In club life. In politics and havo less tlmo to chatter and to criticise. Resides, wo have more entertain ment to take up the slack In our In terest These busy bodies can them selves drive a car across country, ptay golf at the country club or revel In the plots of the movies. Two things make the busybodies bun less: they have less spare time to devote to It. and, living In a glass house, they ship throwing stones. Who aays the strenuous age Is all deplorable?

" ' That chap who says there is waste motion in all human activities should watch a small boy with a cone of ice cream. Nobody can understand just how silly and dangerous spooning is except those who did theirs twenty years ago. At this rate it won't bo 200 years until all the people have politi cal jobs and make a living by taxing one another. Even in his fright the average householder has time to feel a lit tie complimented wheu he hears a burglar downstairs. A wife is a person who asks you to have some more coffee just as you reach the climax of the story you are telling. Isn't it a violation of the Washington treaty, or something, for our navy to use the rum runner as a sparring partner! A contemporary asks what a third party will stand for. So far as we can see, there doesn't appear to be any limit. An optimist is one who thinks matters might have been worse if wc hadn't begun to elect senators by popular vote. A born leader is a man who can fondle a popular prejudice in his bosom until people get the idea that he made it. The advantage in having a second husband is that experience in Correct this sentence: "The husband brought three unexpected guests, and the wife smiled happily as she greeted them." It is much easier to deal with successful men. They don't think it necessary to be ill-mannered to prove their importance. There is a strong man in Indiana who lifts the front of his car, but as a general thing you can't keep up a front without a jack. Correct this sentence: "He was a poor man and felt out of place iu the fine restaurant,. but lie tipped the waiter only a dime." -.- The dyspeptic may learn what things he can't eat and let them alone; but when he finds something he can't drink, it's too late.

TOBIAS Gangling came around anil gathered up my cow, and took her to the village pound, where she's in durance now.. As soon as I cati raise the price I'll go and pay her fine, for every hour I miss her twice, that good old cow of mine. Old Gangling's had it in for me, he's hated me with vim, since I chop ped down a banyan tree he said belonged to him. lie's waited long to even up, and see his throats come true, and make me drink the bitter cup that holds the wormwVod brew. And shall I go with bitter words and roast him for his trick, with language that would scare the birds and make my pastor sick I Oh. shall I, an avenger dread, tramp down on Gangling's toes, and punch his weatherbeaten head and tweak his ears and noseT Such ven geance always is a fluke; when someone sears my hide; I find the heaviest rebuke is kindness well applied. So I'll approach this Gangling wight with kindly quip and jest, and treat him so absurdly right remorse will fill his breast. I'll look for chances to relieve the ills he may endure, I'll cheer him when he's prone to grieve, when sick- I'll bring a cure. With wary hands hell brush the sweat from his repentant brow, recalling with a wold regret the day he jailed my cow.

LESTER Nearly everyone who, spends two cents to buy a newspaier, and every one who doesn't, kno; how to run that newgaper better than the editor. If you do not believe it. ask. One may not be able to write grammatically or to spell correctly, or to think clearly, or knoTr the difference between uews. advertising and editorial, and be icnor ant of everything about the produc tion f a newspaier, but If there is one subject each is cock-sure upon, It is his or her ability to produce a bet ter newspaper than any existent. To give its readers a chance t listen to the words of wisdom that like rain continuously patter upon every newspaper in the form of complaints, advice, criticism and growls, the Capi tal Journal Saturday published its ' brick-bat" pagewhich it is hoped proved as entertaining to readers as to editors. All the "brick-bats" re ceived, except some anonymous ones whose scurrility would bar the paper from the malls, were printed. If a newspaper heeded the bedlam of advice and criticism that constantly besprinkles it, and operated according ly, its history would be similar to the story of the OLD MAN, his Son and the ASS related in Aesop' fables: An Old Man and his Little Boy were once driving an Ass before them to the next Market-town, where It was to be sold. "Have you no more wit," said a passer-by, "than for you and your Son to trudge on foot and let your Ass go light?" So the Man put his Boy on the Ass, and they went on again. "You lazy young rascal," said the next person they met; "are you not ashamed to ride and let your poor Father go on foot?" The Man lifted off the Boy and got up himself. Two women passed soon after, and one said to the other, "Look at that selfish old fellow, riding on, while his little Son follows after on foot" The Old Man thereupon took up the Boy be hind him. The next traveler they met asked the Old Man whether or not the Ass was his own. Being answered that it was; "No one would think so," said he, "from the way in which yoa use It. Why, you are better able to carry the poor animal than he is to carry both of you." So the Old Man tied the Ass" legs to a long pole, and he and his Son shouldered the pole and staggered along under the weight. In that fashion they entered the town, and their appearance caused so much laughter that the Old Man, mad with vexation at the result of his endeavors to give satisfaction to everybody, threw the Ass into the river, and seiz ing his Son by the arm went his way home again. "Please all and you will please none." There Is not room for two policyless newspapers in Salem, run by the con tributing public, vnlorously exploiting the vegetable kingdom, so despite the wisdom so freely showered, the Cap ital Journal will continue to formulate its own policy, fearlessly print the news and print it first, and interpret it editorially in clear-cut and forceful fashion for the right as it is given it to see the right- And those who think that they do not get two cents worth in the Capital Journal will continue borrowing their neighbors paper to learn what Is going on and what it is all about.
