"It is reported herp that a group of THE' BEMIDJT DAILY PIONEER " " Laugh With Us— Not At Us— H The Country Gentleman He ‘stopped, coming out of the Elks club, and paused to flick a bit of dust’'from his coat lapel with a languid fin; er. i With g gfilf-hid smile he watched | a local millionajre’s son pass through the portals of the club. It amused him to witness the uncertainty with which this new member of the club looked about him. His father, for;| more years than he could remember, had frequented the club, and he bade fair to follow in his father’s foot- steps! He stood hesitating; should he go to the Coffee Shop or to the Mark- ham first? Suddenly he remembered. He had to go to the Coffee Shop; he didn’t have enough milk in his wagon for the Markham. —Can You Beat It?7— Too Loud “Oh, my,” said the flapper at the soda fountain as the straw in her 'soda pecame bent, “my sucker’s broke.” “Hush!” whispered her escort. “You needn’t tell everybody about it. even if I am.”” —Can You Beat It?— Pays to Advertise, A wiseacre tells us that the wicked part of the movies, depleted by the; censor, comes in handy, to make up the poster illustrations for the ad- vertising on the billboards. —Now You Know— Beauty Not Skin Deep + When you see the pictures of some of those “big city’" beauties in the Sunday feature scctions, aren’t you glad they publish the pictures of the beauties. only? The old saying that beauty is only skin deep should be revised at once. A lot of it is on the surface only. —But Not-on the Level— Can Carry It With You . A new clothes washing machine Jjust invented weighs only six pounds. The advantage in this, of course, is that you can carry it around the house to wherever the dirty clothes happen to be. And then it ought to come in handy for the fellow who has only one shirt. —If,He Can Find It— Save the Coupons . The Pionéer is offering a swell dic, tionary to its readers at the cost o handling and three coupons clipped from the paper. Here's a chance for a certain local girl to get a dictionary at a small cost. This girl recently asked us the meaning-of “legacy.” We find that “legacy” is that which you inherit, and has nothing to do with short skirts. How could you in- herit short skirts? —Yes, How Could You?— i Plain Enough | i Dear Twentieth Century—During the past summer and fall I noticed a ! large number of scarecrows in far- | mer’s fields in this community, but I never saw any dressed in women’s clothes. What is the reason for this? —U. Nome. " 1 Well, it develops that the farmer dogfln't make scarecrows out of wom- en’s clothes for the simple reason that he wants the crows to see them. —You Have No Chance— } They Won't Let Him “A good merchant always stands back of every article he sells,” a lo- cal buying crank informs us. That | makes us wonder if bath tub dealers are included. —No Harm in Wnodering— Old for His Age Dear Twentieth Century: Aeccord- || ing to the standards of weight I have read on various public seales, I am || too short for my height. What should | I do?—Heavyweight. o _ The cowrse of remedy is something. like this: The fellow who. is too short for his weight, must wait until he's tall for his age. After which he can reduce to his height. : —That’s Simple Enough— NEW YORKERS MAY FLY | TO MOUNTAINS NEXT YEAR| Saranae Lake, N. Y., Nov.,za— iwealthy New.

He wanted to see a re- tailer buy a short loin of beef and then watch the retailer sell the porter- He thought this would make a good story. The head of the market took the reporter into the “cooler” where he showed him. a high class side of beef, With a wooden skewer he marked off the short loin and said, “That is only 8 per cent of the weight of the whole side and it is selling for four times as much as this piece (and he marked off the “chuck,’ which is about one-fourth of the side of beet).” on'in the wholeaale price of various de of beef is caused largely by ) between consumers for the choice ps prices for those- cuts relatively high; an 4 demand for all pafts of the carcass would beuefit: producer, - packer; retailer and consumer.
