Page Twenty-six The A arm The Truth About l]ou Did it ever occur to you that man s life is full of crosses and temptations? He comes into the world without his consent, goes out against his will, and the trip is exceedingly rocky. The rule of contraries is one of the features of this trip. When he is little the big girls kiss him and when he is big the little girls kiss him. If he is poor, he is a lemon. If he is rich he is a crook. If he needs credit, he gets it in the neck. If he is prosperous they all fall over themselves to do him a favor. If he is in politics, it is for graft. If he stays out, he is no good to his country. If he does not give to charity he is close-fisted. If he does, he does it for show. If he is actively religious, he is a hypocrite. If he had no interest in religion, he is a hardened sinner. If he gives affection he is a “softy. If he cares for no one he is coldblooded. If he dies young, There was a great future before him ; and if he lives to an old age, he missed his calling. If you save money, you're a grouch. If you spend it, you're a loafer. If you get it, you’re a grafter, if you don't get it you're a bum. If you re a lawyer you’ll wish you were a manufacturer; if you're a doctor you 11 wish you were a salesman; if you're a dentist you'll wish you were a merchant; if you're a preacher you'll wish you were a banker. Oh! What's the use?? DO YOU REMEMBER? Do you remember way back when I told you The Tale of Two Cities when The Story of Elaine” tells us about the “Coming of Arthur who Travels With a Donkey and in which The Idylls of the King are Gareth and Lynette and King Henry the V is the notable character. He takes The De Coverley Papers to Guinevere ' and “She Stoops to Conquer The Tatler” who told us about “The Passing of Arthur? Don: What did she say when you turned off the switch and kissed her? Virden: Said she felt as if she never wanted to see my face again. Rastus: Liza, what fo' yo' buy dat odder box of shoe blackin?” Liza: Go on, dat ain’t shoe blackin; dat’s my massage cream.
