QUIPS QUOTES Realty in Reality With prices at an all-time high For property being bought, It's easy to determine why A little land is called a "lot." Jeanne Hartman Day A harried mother, plagued by drawings on the walls and in her magazines, thought she had found a remedy at last. She hurried from the store with a box of "washable crayons" and told her children to get to work, they couldn't damage anything permanently any more. Not much later, the children ap peared, looking crestfallen. "Mom? my, we need more crayons. Those last ones weren't so good."

"Now form a circle around me. That's right, keep it tight! Now put your heads down and run with me as fast as you can for the locker room." "What good is that defense going to do us?" a player com plained irritatedly. ' '"I don't know about you," the coach said, "but if we lose the next game, it's going to get me through the alumni safely." Harry Ramsay The best time to save money was about 30 years ago. S.
