Wednesday, March 3, 1937 THE FLESHERTON ADVANCE THE REASON A MYSTERY A husband had hard a funny storj and decided to toll it to his wife. The Blory Btarted with the question, "Mary, why am 1 like a mule?" But the story got wrecked rijfht there. She said, "I don't know why, George, but I know you are." Now we won- der why some men are like mules? But we also wonder why some women are forever taking the joy out of life by saying embarrassing things and b> their silly gossip making life hard for others ? He who in the end counts is he wlio refuses to take the count.
