The Night After Christmas
TK T,f ^ n!gbA t'Ur
The wind was whistling a tuuu of
woe on the window sill** Turkey
bones were in the garbage can, aifd
everybody had either the headache or
the stummick-ache.
The tie and the pair socks Bill
and Jim sent had been examined and
round to be "xeconds" and were then
poked into the bureau drawer for
safe-keeping. After taking several
doses of soda for the purpose of
stimulating my digestive organs, I
proceeded to sit myself down in iny
easy (payment) chair," and was
ft 8eat of ?>y britches by
the ( hoo-choo" train old Santa Claus
had brought, and then and there, 1
selected another resting place.
oi1 *,W.?XS feel 80rry for 0,d Banta
Claux, The night after Christmas."
There, right before my eyes on the
floor, was the big china doll that he
paid $4.98 for with 1 leg and 1 arm
missing, and 2 eyes that formerly opened
and closed had been poked back
into the open space, and only 2 holes
were left.
The jumping jack had jumped his
last jump. He had been wound too
tight and his jump-spring had busted.
The "Spirit of St. Louis" had a broken
propeller, and the doll carriage
had only 3 wheels left. Mutt's heai
and Jeff's arm and leg, respectively,
were gone and about forgotten.
The set of knives and forks I
bought for my wife were "Smith's
1922" instead of "Roger's 47," and
somebody seemed displeased, but did
not openly admit it. The pair of
pajamas I received fitted "her" better
than they did me, and I kept on
saying nothing. *
Raisins and oranges peelings were
everywhere. My nice new (1926) #uit
had candy-hand prints all over its
lapel and front. My hat was being
used for a basket. Two fire-crackers
had been shot directly tender me,
and I could taste the sage and onions
that "they" put in the turkey dressing.
(The thought came to me that i
Christmas, After all, was only a short
space of time used for, the purpose
of stuffing one's abdomen unmercifully,
and absorbing bank accounts).
I was nearly a sick man from every
viewpoint.
I became weak and weary about
8:20 p. m., and proceeded to retire.
I rolled and tumbled and worried and
groaned' and counted sheep till
about 1 a. m., and then -went to sleep,
and slept intermittingly for nearly 40
minutes. I am always glad to see
Christmas come and go.

I am authorized to say that Woolworth
will not sell goods on the installment
plan beginning with the
New Year, but this good store will
continue to., sell you a dime's worth
of stuff for 10 cents, all cash. But
speaking of hard times:
You can always tell when a man
is paying for his car by the month.
He orders 50 cents worth of coal at
a time, a beefsteak purchase never
runs over 15 cents, he faflr out with
nis .preacher and stays away from
church, he decides that the Salvation
Army is the bunk, and that the
Armenians ought to go to work and
stop begging their living semiannually.
Our service club is certainly doing
some wonderful work in this community.
At our last luncheon, we
talked 30 minutes about helping the
Boy Scouts, and at the luncheon before
that, we talked 40 minutes about
donating 20 dollars to the poor of
the city, and at the luncheon before
that, we talked 50 minutes ,about a
permanent summer camp for the un-^
^er privileged boys, and we are planning
to do more talk at our next meeting.
Aunt Cindy (Uncle"Joe's third wife)
got pretty badly bunged up last
Wednesday night. After she had
finished milking three cows, and slopped
the hogs, and bought the day's
washing in off the line, she went out
to cut some wood -to cook supper
with, and stumbled over one of Uncle
Joe's rabbit gums and her head
struck the axe, and a great gash was
inflicted just above her right eye.
Uncle Joe, got pretty mad at Aunt
Cindy and told heir that she ought to
have been looking where she was
a-going.

America's Finest
THERE are many good chilled plows
made, but only one Avery. In many
important ways it is above any comparison.
Since B. P. Avery designed the first
Avery plow in 1825, great strides have
been made in plow building. Avery always
has been aHeadcr. Today every
scientific and manufacturing improvev
meat is found in Avery Chilled Plows,
and in addition are many advantages exclusive
to Avery. Avery repair parts are
always genuine because protected by
patents. They are guaranteed to fit perfectly

same number, and because perfect-fitting
cannot work looae and seldom break.
The Avery "lock that locks"?found
only on the Avery?holds the plowshare
in place no matter how long in use; and
relieves the strain on the bolts. Guarantee
tag?as shown?Is attached to every
Avery Chilled Plow. Thousands of farmers,
wherever chilled plows are' used,
say they never knew perfect plow satis*
faction until they got an Avery.
Let us demonstrate Avery Chilled Plow superiority
to your satisfaction.
