Perhaps you iieed the dollars for gas and rubber tirgs, for farthingales. and collars, and Koonice and lyres; perhaps you need the shilling, the. kopeck and the groat, that you may make a killing in long jim-swinger coat. The more you mneed the money, the nobler is the deed, when you, serene and sunny, hand out the chicken feed; to put a better steeple upon the village kirk; to help de- serving people, oppressed and out of work; to still the bitter wailing of children in distress; to aid the poor and ailing through life’s bleak wil- derness. I purchase raiment gaudy, an outfit all complete, to decorate my body, my whiskers and my feet I spend all kinds of plunder each vear on Auto Row! I buy the choo- ing wonder that shows things how to go. The sort of joy that spend- ing imparts so quickly flec:' It soon has found an ending, it's tran- sient as a breeze. The joy of giving lingers as long as I'm on deck; it reaches to my fingers, 1 feel it in my neck. It yields a glowing glad- ness to know I've carried aid, to some one soaked in sadness, dis- couraged and afraid. To give and keep on giving, to shovel out the dough! Tt adds a joy to living*that tightwads never know. (Copyright) WALT MASON. TWO MINERS ENTOMBED. Shot Firers Are Believed Killed at Terre Haute.
