Every week we read those sharp, often timeless, barbs on the editorial pages of our grass-roots newspap-j ers. W. Henry Davis, publisher of the; Fork (N.C.) Hornet, is one who can; turn them well. He has just supplied i some samples and offers them “free to all concerned.” Perhaps you’d like to look them over: "Naked truth is evolution in the raw.” "Aviation thrills but one drop kills.” "Fate is often blamed for what fools do.” "People who are unkind are the wrong kind.” "He who loses his temper loses more than that.” "Truth is a mental cathartic that always works. "When beef becomes scarce, bull remains plentiful.” "Some dogs are pointers and some men are disappointers." "A well spent ‘past’ comes in handy for future reference.” "It takes plenty of sense to get by without knowing anything.” “A fool hardly can be expected to outgrow his affliction.” "Since ‘money talks’ we presume that hush money’ whispers."—The!
