But not that b'' , y who staided c. viilent aigument last week .hen his teacher told him that two and two make four. —It ain’t so,” he told her and offered to prove it. And h> did prove it, the vety next day. when he came to school with two jackrabbits and two c’oe rabbits his father had given him plus all their recent off-

spring

"Two and two makes twelve," j he proudly told the teacher," and | you can’t tell me no different.'’ Whereupon the teacher could give him no better reply than '•don’t US' the d-ublt negative: - ’

One of the workmen here, who | xl.so owns his own homo, go*, rood and mad about it. He came

"You are .supposed to be a ,mart guy.” he said. ‘ You news-

"Now I ask >ou. does it make sense what these town fellows lid? Is it honest to raise asseSsnents and then tell the cockeyed world they don t raise taxes? "Ain’t that just one of the many things that's wrong, with jhe country? Ain't that w,hat'« driving people to Join the Reds" It don't make no sense to me. “Well, what's your explana-

tion?"

There are many other indications that two and two don't make four, at least not nowadays. For instance. I can't quite unI ■ erstand how Communism can make inroads in a country of 1 plenty. But that boy with the rabbits might prove it. H • right say that when a lot I if people who hav. to work foi I small wages read about actress- , jts and ether rich women being robbed of foi tunes in diamonds and furs. Communism may multiply just as his rabbits did.
