vears ago to construct the Trucksville

is still outstanding.
~~ It is expected that some construction
program to relieve crowded conditions
will be discussed at the next meeting
of the board, in March.
~The solution to the problem of
crowded conditions may be solved, a
director said, by the construction of
additions to present buildings, the

Seen And Heard
By Will Wimble.
[Esussrasanannny
[Elsesussnsanann
Really, I was out of ideas for the ol’
{column when I dropped into the bank
the other day to get warm. “Putting
in or taking out?” inquired the faceti--
ous Myles Kelly, just as if there was
any doubt about it. Twas then that
Myles handed me a little booklet, well,
well, there it was; the material I want
for the column and I was all set for
another day. And I think it is rather
intergsting ‘matter.
For instance, there is a little article
telling how to worry efficiently. So
many persons blunder into popular
pastimes without knowing. You should
do your worrying now, for statistics
show that 90 per cent of the things
people worry about never happen. And
it may help you to know that worry
kills more people than war.
Then another article that is of inte:-
‘est refers to the “bull” and the “bear”,
but how many know the derivation of
these familiar terms? Well, a “bull” is
one who operates in ‘expectation of a
rise in stocks, or in order
such a rise. A “bear” is a person, who
sells stocks or securities for future de-
livery in expecting a fall in the mar-
kte. “Bear” in this sense was probably
used in allusion to the proverb: “To
caught the bear.” The ‘bears’ and the
raise prices are now said to be so-
called from the bear’s habit of pulling
down and the bull's of tossing up.
And the famous last words of our
presidents. John Quincy Adams: “It is
the last of earth. I am content.” James
Buchanan: “0, Lord, Almighty, as
Thou Wilt!” Grover Cleveland: “I
have tried so hard to do right!” James
Garfield: “The people are my trust.”
Harding: “That's good. Go on,
some more.” (To Mrs. Harding,
was reading to him.) Benjamin Harri-
son: “Are the Doctors here?” Thomas
my daughter to my couatry.” James
Madison: “I always talk better laying
down.” William McKinley: “It is God's
Way. His will be done, not ours.”
Theodore Roosevelt: “Put out the
light, please.” George Washington: “It
is well.” Woodrow Wilson: ‘I'm a
broken achise. But I am ready.”
v
And now, if you don’t like this stuff,
I'm sorry. But don’t blame me. Blarme
Myles. As I have stated, it was he who
gave me the book from which the
above excerpts are copied. He may
have a kick because of my frankness,
and you may have a Kick, too, but I
haven’t, the book didn’t cost me a
cent.

I got a letter the other Nay from a
reader asking us to explain what de-
valuation of the dolla: means, we wish
to state that we haven't the remotest
idea.
We are also trying to find out what
it means but cannot understand the
explanations of business men and
others who claim they know but prob-
ably don't. It's clear as mud to us.
But we do understand the devalua- |
tion of some stock we bought at $10 a
share which is now selling for $2 a
share and have an idea that maybe the
same thing is happening to the ‘dollar.
On our desk this morning was note
signed by “Valves in the Head with
Knee Action.” which said, “Come down
and see me some time.” Now who do
you think wrote that.
But in case it was from an automo-
bile salesman we know, we wish to an-
nounce that we are not a prospect for
