[| Wednesday, October 25, 1939 THE FLESHERTON ADVANCE To put a rod through a curtain with- out catching the material, place a thimbk- on the end. Dora: "Agnus married a self made man, didn't she?'' EUith: "Yes but she compelled him to make extensive alterations." Po8tma.sters have been warned to be on the lookout for attempts to mail anything which looks like gold to the United Slates. It's so long since the average person ha» seen any gold in this country that the post office people , may need a special course of instruct- ion. An Irishman, hearing a rumor that hi^ bank had su^ended payment, rushed around to withdraw his money. "How would you like it?" asked the clerk, "In big bills or little ones."

The Oumbclls used to sing "Where do all the flies go in the win- ter time?" Wherever it is we wish they would get started, for no matter how many we put out of commission as many more come to the funeral.
