SNAP SHOTS
BY REV. W. H. FAUST
Breach of promise suits are not so
numerous as divorce cases. Therefore,
courting couples are happier than tlie
married couples.
Debts, boll weevils and bad roads put
the wrinkles in lots of fellows faces
these days.
The thinking machines of men are
peculiar. They enable a fellow to
harbor malice a year and forget a kind
ness in an hour.
Serious sickness is a matter of grave
concern to the doctors, patients and
undertakers.
About all the credit a fellow can get
from business men now is credit for
good intentions.
The folks who are so precise and
prudish that they use limb for leg.
will have to stall when it comes to
boot binders.
When an automobile stops it stops,
hut when an aeroplane stops she rops.
See ?
Ladies in these days of short dresses
should make fine candidates—they
have so little to conceal.
When a farmer insists that he has
seen a snake milking a cow it is time
to ask if lie uses home brew'.
Abuse Turks and rich fellows all
you please hut plenty of money and a
harem is some men's idea of happiness.
Backbone, common sense, industry
and sticktoitiveness are badly needed
in these days.
More men seem to be coveting their
neighbors’ wives these days than the
houses of their husbands.
Lots of fellows wear patched shirts
and 1916 model V in order that
their wives may ride in 1921 model
cu rs.
The proposed $75,000,000 bond issue
to build Georgia Highways ought to
pass. The roads are doggoned rough
in many places. If you don't believe
it just ride anywhere nowadays.
