Talking.

There is a regulation in the British
navy that forbids officers to speak dis-l
couragingly to their comrades con:
ecrning any enterprise that they may

what a depressing effect is produced
when anybody speaks in a dishearten-
(‘tl way about the efforts they are un-

~' ' kin . ' ,
dtxdsinggle man who talks in a dis-
courugud way about an existing situa-
tion can do more harm than an attack
from :. pmverful enemy. The man who
says, "It. can't be done" is the enemy
of i \try naval and military force, and
h must be silenced or eliminated if
n I dy of men are to accomplish re-
Bulltuis the same in civic life. It would
be u wonderful thing for a community
like the Norwalks if all the folks who
keep throwing cold water. and saying
that this or that desirable and possible
thing can not be accomplished. could
be eliminated or silenced. There
ought to be a Itacit understanding
among people of a community that as
that kind of talk is so harmful. they

When you observe that 17,178 new
books were published in our country
during the last two years, you realize
how few books out of the total the
average person has time to read. To
wade through~ail of them, you would
have to read nearly 24 volumes a day.

Considering that very few of the
total are really worth reading. it's all
for the best that readers are pressed
for time. The trouble is that, in the
labyrinth of new books. a reader is
rather dazed about which few to per-
use. Newspaper editors sense this.
and the old-time book review depart-
ment is returning to favor.

The census shows America has over
three and a half million widows. You'd
vhax’e lost money if you had been bet-
ting on the total without knowing it.

How many of those widow's and.
their children were left amply provid-
ed for when the man or the house
passed on? 7

YOUR Rm

BY BERTON BRALEY '

s

 

A young man out in a theatre.
To watch the actors play,
But he coughed so loud that the other folk.
Couldn’t hear what the actors did Say
The usher did come down to him .
And said, “You’ll have to leave."
And as the young man left the place
These words .he seemed to sneeze.

_ Chorus

“Always wear your rubbers.

That's what my mother said.
But I would never listen

And now my nose is red.
‘I wish that I had harkcned

To what my mother told.
“Always wear your rubbers,

And you will not catch cold."

A young man met a maiden,
Whose pumps were made of suede,
Her stockings, rolled below the knee,
“silk were thinly made:
He said to her, "Oh. little girl.
You'll get a cold in your head.
I'll marry you and teach yen what
My dear old mother said."
Chorus
"Always wear your rubbers,"
My mother said. and she
Most surely said a mouthful
' In those kind words to me.
Oh, darling. hear the warning
My mother wisely told.
“Always wear your rubbers
And you will not catch coldi"
