Evening Republican, Volume 16, Number 11, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 12 January 1912 — The Eyes and the Nose. [ARTICLE]

The Eyes and the Nose.

It was Pat’s first attendance at a meeting. When the chairman announced as the result of a- vote that there were 42 noes to 21 ayes. Pat began to fidget in his seat and then got up and started for the platform. “Sit down, there!" yelled the chairman. “No, begorra!” said Pat, “not until I look this audience in the face. I want to see them humans what has more noses than eyes.”—Judge’s Library.
