times lately ... that alcoholic are really
sick people. It was news to me. Do you
agree with that statement. Judge?"
OLD JUDGE: "Yea, it's true, Henry. It's no
notion of mine... it's a statement made
by scientists who have studied the subject."
HENR Y: " What did they find out. Judge ?"
OLD JUDGE: "Wen. as I result of their
medical research, they found out that ap

drink sensibly. 5 do so unwisely, at times.
Included in that 5 is the small percentage
known a alcoholics."

Barber's
Letter ' J
The angular, be-spectaled
neighbor stood in the door, mild
ly puffing his corncob pipe.
"I am growing Impatient," he
announced with a nod of bis
head toward Jerry, our brown
gelding, which he had Just rid
den up and tied to a tree.
The much publicized patience
of Job has been greatly over rat
ed. To be patient tor a day, or
even a month, is one thing. But
to remain calmly unruffled
through six years of having your
land laid waste by a horse Is
major league restraint.
Of course there Is another
viewpoint If the neighbor has
grown In grace through these
years of persecution, why maybe
he should thank Jerry, not con
demn him. Certainly we, as Jer
ry's owners, deserve no credit.
Not that we object to character
development. In fact we are all
for it But we believe in free
enterprise; let each man acquire
qualities of character by his
own methods, is our motto. And
we have known a long time that
the neighbor wished to have no
truck with Jerry.
Cooperating like we always
do, w tried fences, both wire
and electric. No good. We then
staked him out, tied him to trees,
fl.ially shut him In the barn.
Still no good. Jerry Jumped over,
barged through, pulled loose,
chewed free or broke out, suit
it J his method to the need.
One thing I must say for Jer
ry, he never tries to shift the
blame for his depredations onto
some other horse. He Just lets
his finger prints fall where they
will and leaves 'em. If he arrives
In the night, he doesn't leave
ome morning. Yes sir, Jerry's
code of ethics may be his own.
but he has one: Like when he
prefers psnsies to carrots, he
Just over the fence and takes
pansies, not sneaking up on them,
like a horse with less character
might.
But there are metes and
bounds to human character de
velopment. There is a saturation
point, you might say. I knew
the neighbor had reached his
when he said, "I am growing Im
patient." A riggin' sllnger was present
at the time. He told the neighbor
he would have to speak Eng
lish, if he was to make any im
pression. "What you need to do,"
he enlarged, 'is to use some log
ger lingo. Scinething mild of
course, seeing there's a lady pres
ent. You might try, 'You keep
your blankety-1 lank nag at home
o- 1 11 blanketv well knock your
so-and-so bloc off. Try this first.
If It falls, I'll give vou lesson
number two."
"But that's exactly what I have
been raying," the neighbor re
plied. "Didn't 1 say I was losing
patience?
Something tells me it's time
we really did keep Jerry home.
