It's Easv Enough to
-3? y - y w
Questions.
(By Wj H. Dugdale.)
It is easy to ask questions, "
But to answer them all is a task;
If you note it is rather amusing
The curious questions they ask;
Some fellow will asK you in earnest
Where Gain got his wife long ago,
When you tell him that Nod was her birth
place He'tfaskyou "well, how do you know?"
M talking of the good old days when
grandmothers went to prayer-meeting
instead of the "movies," and say
ing they were brothers living in High
Point and on a visit to their "Uncle
Copple" who lives a few miles below
Linwood, two prepossessing young
men walked into the livery estab
i lishment of Mr. Brindle, of Lexing
ton, some days ago and asked for a
horse and buggy. They were hand
somely fitted out by the obliging
proprietor, and upon paying in ad
vance and driving off, pleasantly
Thev ask vou whv street cars don't hurry.

And men when they meet never do; return by Linwood for the flag-raiS-
It's because the men have something better, jog exercises scheduled for the next
But the girls, well the thing's up to you . morning
..... - j -
They ask you why watchmakers' dummies
Are always a quarter past eight
And ask why the girls with new bonnets
Will manage at church to be late;
Why the girls at the telephone station
Will insist that the line is in use,
Why a messenger boy never hurries
And always has got an excuse.
They ask why tonsorial artists
Have poles painted red, white and blue;
Why men who have plenty of money
Appear to have plenty to do.
Why Mayor Tate does not order a "curfew,"
Why last week we had so much rain;
Why a man steps in front of a trolley:
And if murderers are all insane.
They ask you why air ships ain't floating:
Like ships out at sea in the sky;
They ask you why people that's wicked .
Should live while the good ones must die:
They ask you to tell where is Heaven,
Why people say whiter than snow: '
They ask you to give a description
ut the place where the wicked will go.
They ask you why Jona selected
1 he whale as a place of abode:
They ask you if Paul ever married,
And if honeyand milk ever flowed.
They ask you if Solomon's temple
Was bunt without hearing a sound:
If Aaron's rod turned to a serpent.
If the body of Moses was found.
The next morning's sun arose and
so did the flag at Linwood, and so
also rose the spirits of all the sur
rounding community of Linwood,
and th" day was slipping into night
before it began to pry itself into the
consciousness of Mr. Brindle that
the "Jones Brothers" had been at a
different kind of raising they had
raised his horse and buggy.
The clicking of many telegraph
keys and the taking down and the
hanging up of many telephone re
ceivers revealed the information
that the last seen of the "Jones
Brothers" was a glimpse of them
driving "Old Mack" at a S. 0. S.
gallop toward Salisbury and the set
ting sun.
AS TO CHRISTMAS PRESENTS.
Do not think of cutting down
your Christmas presents. Give
freely according to your means. If
your heart is heavy for the agonized
people ot Europe you need not be
frivolous in giving. But whether
the giving is joyous or in in the
minor key, there never Was a Christ
mas when the obligation to give was
more pressing. .
A general contraction of Christ
mas present making tnis year would
unquestionably have far reaching
disastrous effects.
It would mean to manufacturers
and jobbers heavy unsold stocks;
to retailers it would mean shrinkage
of trade and disappearance of profits;
to the transportation interests it
would mean the loss of regular an
nual business; to the wage workers
it would mean widespread lack of

pitiful to think ot the eagerness with
which scores of men and women
must look forward to the Christmas
flurry as a hope for earning a few
They ask why the city officials
Don't put in new sewers right away;
They want you to go into details
And tell them the cause of delav:
They ask you what code is adopted, .
And what it contains that we need;
You can only politely inform them
1 o apply tor a copy and read.
One man cannot answer these questions
Aitnouyn ne oe wise as a sage;
He may study from morning till evening,
From infancy up to old age.
They think if they want information
It requires no thought on your part,
You can give it without hesitation
For you know all the answers by heart.
Don't you think it's wiser and better
To take down the books from the shelf
And study their contents a little
And answer these questions yourself?
You will find what an effort is needed,
And will get some idea of the task.
And then you won't wonder whv people

Congenially asserting that they
bore the reliable name of Jones
days' pay. How much more pitrfui
would it b if this hope were defeat
ed. Wise givers will naturally adapt
their Christmas remembrance in
this troubled year to the prevailing
temper. Utilitarian considerations
will be likely to guide them to an un
usual extent But it is to be hoped
that the inspired trifle will nt be
entirely dropped out of currency.
The money spent filtering back
over the counter through the. chan
nels of trade to the starting place
will help in some degree, great or
little, a long line of anxious capitalists
and workers, great and small, to
weather hard times.
At is the genial privilege and joy
ous duty of all to relax Jtheir purse
strings this year for Christmas pres
ents just as far as prudence wilj allow.
