While one can wear his old straw hat. It is impossible for him to bum Inst winter's coal. Straws show which way the wind blows those days, even if the straws are woven into hats. It is hard to convert to bolshevisin a workman wearing a $2." silk shirt and driving his own car.

Industry can be depended on to adjust itself if every man who wears overalls in his regular business will keep them on for a series of mansized working days.

Occasionally a letter of congratulation suggests a recognition of the ln t-t-itable rather than any great sentimental enthusiasm. A Mexican politician desiring contributions to his enxnpaign fund avoids embarrassing obligations by simply robbing a .pay train.
