Evening Republican, Volume 18, Number 189, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 12 August 1914 — Be a Spizzerinktum. [ARTICLE]

Be a Spizzerinktum.

“What Is a splxxerinktum? I have just been called that and I want to know,” the question is usually pat to some dispenser of information by an inquirer whose chin is held high and whose Ups are compressed into a straight line immediately after the inquiry. But if you would see that facial expression transformed into delighted amiability, watch it as the answer is given. “A spisserinktum la a person who possesses initiative, > vim. vigor, efficiency, intelUgent persistency and an overmastering will to succeed,” comes the explanation. “Oh, thank you; thank you many times—slang la so expressive that it’s always interesting, and spisserinktumS is a rather pleasing word, don't you think so?” effuses the individual who a few minutes before looked like Huerta considering a jpopMltlflß to abdicate.
