i. wm wuhiuk: , I Wednesday afternoon
improvement in th’ movies, th best wmiams Mrs s
one he has ever seen was when he
was a boy. Th’ principal scene, ac-
cordin' to Will, was the baptizin’ of
the Savior, an’ It was in th’ days
when Baptists and Methodists was
considerable rivals. Will sez thet
Jesus was led down Into th' water
by John, th' Baptist an' ail over
th’ house could be heard a sigh of
satisfaction from th’ Baptists pres-
ent and a grumbling from among
th' Methodists. An' then th’ climax
come when John stooped down an'
picked up a handful of water an'
sprinkled Jesus. There was then a
shout of holy glee from th’ Metho-
dists present an’ a angry roar of dls-
appontment from th’ Baptists. Will
sez thet he Is glad thet religious dif-
ferences of this kind have passed,
but thet he still considers this movie
th’ best thet he has even seen, an’
th' most talkd-of.
R. U. Oood sez thet there are two
things thet contribute more too a
man’s success than all of th’ other
things combined. He sez one of
them is a nagging wife who has
ambitions, and th’ other is debt. Mr.
Good goes even so fer ez to claim
thet if a man has both of these he
can’t possibly be a failure.
Will U. Hanker claims thet he left
his home town soon after gettln’
married because his wife was try-
in’ to bring him up according to
two conflictin’ codes . . his mother’s
and his mother-in-law’s, an’ thet
- between th’ two he got into a kind
o' bewildered state thet his wife
hasn’t been able to get him out of
yet.
Ima Wunda sez thet some men
think their wives unreasonable be-
cause th’ women won’t accept th'
-^y*>»"uses th’ men spend considerable
t an’ effort in manufacturing.
Our local preacher sez thet hu-
man nature's peculiar, ez he claims
thet th’ hardest struggles in life
are looked back to with th' fondest
of memories, an’ thet th’ best times
•ar* h' most quickly forgotten.
I. B. Smart sez thet th' finest
piece of furniture he ever owned
was a big dry-goods box thet serv-
ed ez a dinin’ table when he and
Mrs. Smart set up house- keepin’.
