MAN SINGS BUT LITT The spirit of music prompts man te whistle and sing in odd places. It's a cartoon fallacy that a man hums “Rockaby Baby” when walking the floor with the first-born. But who has not listened outside a bathroom door and heard amidst the splashes from the tub the voice of a man who never dares sing in front of his family, raised in the luscious phrases of some ballad mellowed in the acoustics of the tiled room? Listen to the halting warblings of the man between swipes of his razor. He also sings. The spring time brings the merry hum of the lawn mower, But lke the piccolo's shrill note above the rumble of the kettle drums in the orchestra, one hears the whistling of the man at the handle. What do they sing? Tell me 4 man’s favorite song und I’ tell you when he was wed, says the Toledo Blade. The man in the tub, the man with the razor, and the man behind the mower all are humming the pop- lar ballads of their courting days. songs, the ones they hummed meaningly and feelingly over the piano on Sunday nights after the girl's parents had retired, were the For these lust songs they ever learned. | Heroism seldom receives an quate reward, although if one desired to gro.ephilosophical about it might tritely affirm that heroism Is its | own reward, says the Christian Scl- *nee Moniter, But the case with which this paragraph ts concerned was one iu which the real reward was given. Miss Rilla Conrad of Pittsburgh had such # keen sense of hearing that she detected a break In the rall when a fast pussenger train was passing over it, She reported the matter, the rail was fixed—probably forestalling a wreck—and the railroad began to wonder about a rewurd, Would they give her gold? Would they give ner diamonds? The mind of a genius solved the problem, and they gave her —a new spring bat. The word snob is not, as many be- lleve, mere slang, but it is of respec- table, yes, even of distinguished ori- gin, for it is the abbreviation of two Latin words, sine nobilltate, meaning without wobility, This term was once used to indicate English university students who were not of the nobil- ity. pretensions of these men brought the word into Ul favor, for they aped the manner and clothing of the nobs. There ave nobs and snobs in our schools and in soclety today, not by accident of birth, but because some persons recognize true standards of gentility and others do not. Tie The New York Globe has discovered | a rich man who wants to put his wealth to use, but Isn't sure of the best way. He has usked his readers for suggestions. They are many and various. They include homes for the aged, endowed hospital beds for the poor, housing at cost, scientific re- search, technical education, health clinics, educational films and scores of other projects of benevolence or up- lift. Nobody has yet suggested the best use of all, remarks the Washing- ton Times, which is for the rich man to put his money to work making jobs for the people who can do their own uplifting best when they get earned incomes, News thet a salvage syndicate has started work in an English harbor where one of the galleons of the Span- ish Armada Hes beneath 80 feet of | sand, is rather thrilling. It is not so much the ingots of gold that may be hidden in the old vessel that stirs the imagination, but the mere idea of hav- ing one of these historic warriors of the sea brought again to light. Who knows but that other vessels might He in waters where they may be found?

Nowadays a married man needs to be about six times as rediable to measure up to his increased responsibilities, Those latest jumps in the price of Liberty bonds are reminding a whole lot of peopic that it would have been better to hold on, In this weather a person at least knows why he is paying good money for coal. Now it appears that they do not even wear “Teddy bears” any more. ade. | one | A Word About CEMENT FARMERS contemplating improvements will be in* terested to know that cement may now be purchased very reasonably.
