HEAR HIM HOLLER.

My father says the paper he reads

ain't put up right, ne finds a lot of fault, he does, pcrusin' it all night. He says there ain't a single thing in it worth while to reafl,.. And that it doesn't print the kind of - stuff the people need. He tosses it aside an' says it's strictly on the — r, » ?

But you ought to hear him holier when the paper doesn't come.

He reads about the weddin's and he snorts like all get' out. He reads the social doin's with a most derisive shout. He says they make the papers for the womenfolk alone. He'll read'about the parties, and he'll fume and fret and groan; He says of information it doesn't have a crumb—— But you ought to hear him holler when the paper doesn't come.

He's always first to grab it, and he reads it plumb clean •'through. He doe-snn miss an item or a want ad —that is true.' ; ■rie says, *They* don't know what we .■:■ want—the dura newspaper guys, I'm going to take'a day sometime an' go anil put'em wise; Sometimes it seems as though 1 they must be deaf an' blind an' dumb," But you ought to hear him holler - when the paper doesn't come.
