It's nice to wake up and not have to get op. That's why
Little Snooz-Alarmt clock, budget price member of the
wonderful Snooz-Alarmt family of alarms, is so popular.
When it calls, just tap the control bar and go back to sleep
for about ten minutes. Automatically calls again.
Because all General Electric-Telechron clocks are elec
tric, they can't run down during the night, never need
winding, stay on time to the minute. And alarms sound off
for 45 minutes unless shut off. "

Time Off for Good lehavior! Re
cently our city officials started a
unique project. Once a week they
"arrest" an out-of-state tourist.
He and his family are taken
before a magistrate who "sen
tences" them to a day in the city.
The day includes guided tours of
the city and the surrounding
country, with free film and cam
eras provided, special entertain
ment in the evening, and free
food and lodging. Then, before
leaving, the tourists' car is washed
and refueled, and they are presented with a souvenir box of locally
produced items. It's a nice way to make friends for bur little town.

Tk Smoking Habit. My father, who was a heavy smoker, once met an old
classmate and the following conversation ensued:
"Well, J. E., still smoke as much as ever?" the friend asked.
"Ten or 12 cigars a day," my father replied.
"What do they cost you?"
"Usually two for a quarter."
There was a pause for some mental arithmetic, then, "J. E., do you
realize that if you didn't smoke and had saved all that money all these
years you could have owned that beautiful house across the street?"
"Did you ever smoke?" my father asked.
"Never took up the habit."
"Do you own that house?"
"Of course not."
"Well, I do," said my father, flicking an ash and sauntering away.

It Takes Or to Know One. Recently a couple came to my office for mar
riage counseling. It seemed the husband, an Army sergeant, was con
cerned that his wife got a job in a local tavern. Inclined to agree with
him, I said to the wife, "You must realize that such an environment
presents great temptation to a young woman. Men who frequent such
places may make advances or try to date you."
"Yeh, I know," she said soberly, then pointed at her husband, "that's
how I met him." Chaplain (Lt. Col.) L.D., Fort Leonard Wood, Mo.

in an ancient cookbook of mine:
How to preserve a husband: Some
insist upon keeping them in pickle,
while others are constantly putting
them into hot water. Even the Door
varieties may be made sweet and tender 0
by garnishing with patience, well
sweetened with smiles, and flavored
with kisses. Wrap well in a mantle of
charity, and keep warm with a steady
fire of devotion. Thus prepared, they'll "fr
keep for years.
