FLASHLIGHTS

It’s a proud thing to be an Amert tan nowadays. ‘ -•- *'”*** ' The chap who depends on luck has a mighty fickle friend. Mighty few men can lose an argument without losing their tempers, too. Young men should remember that he who is once a cheat is always suspected. ““ ’• It sometimes gives a man a jolt to discover that a very pretty girl is also sensible. The time to be a friend is when the other fellow would be absolutely alone If you didn’t go to him. e One of the things a young man ought to be told is that if he cheats one man he wins the distrust of many. .Everybody admits that life is a game of give and take, but too many people want to be on the takers’ side. It doesn’t make any difference how rich a man is his wife can always find something In him to find fault with. Women may like to be flattered but we imagine that they must often get mighty tired of the guff that some men hand out Whenever we bump into one of those strong-minded women we always congratulate ourselves on having selected one of the other variety.
