A Startling Sale of Women s Fur Fabric C
Editorial
Met Mr. I. B. Gloom com
ing to work the other
morning. "Good morning,
Mr. Gloom, how are yon
today?"
"On, I'm fair. But the
world is all wrong. Nothing
but trouble and fighting
and strikes. What are we
coming to next?"
Just then we reached our
Corner and were glad to
escape further wailings and
sobs.
Of course "times" are
not what might be called
fi'ormal. but this world is a
grand and glorious place in
which to live.
When you stir up a mud
bottom pond it takes some
time for it to clear up.
This earth mound has
been badly muddied for
five or six years. Don't
expect it to clear up over
night. But it WILL clear
up again, and it will be a
still better place to live
in when it docs.
