MYSTKKIES OF MODERN TIMES
..A few days ago, our firm received
a car of hay from a shipper located'
just exactly 1H3 miles, us the snake
crawls, from our warehouse. tor
hauling these 11 tons of hay, the railroads
charged $100.33 and the shipper
received $04.2.'$ for the car of
" ii"
hay. In it any wander that they
aint hauling nothing much?
. , So far the "now deal" has not bean
a misdeal to anybody except the
crooks. We have beer a-plenty and
it's amazing where the money comes
from to buy it, but 1 haven't seen a
single (or married) person ahy of
enough cash to give the 3-point-2
stuir a quaff. Really and truly, it
tastes sorter like 'beer.
..If the cotton farmers succeed with
their endeavors to grow another big
crop, the R. F. C. might as well make
plans to cam|> in the south for at
least 3 more years. The government
is helping the farmer so's it will have
to help him again next year and
mebbe the year following. Nearly j
all of them are plowing up the path
to the backhouse and planting it in'
cot ton. . 0UC11!
. Times do change something powerful.
1 came across u second mortgage
the other day (in my safety
deposit box) for $5,000.00. The fellow
ahead of me held a mortgage for
$3,000.00. He took over that tract of
land in 1920. It was sold for taxes

last fall. The house and barn on it
cost 92,500.00. Thene'a something
wrong with our currency or there was
so moth my badly wrony with me and
that other fool who loant our money
on this farm.
..Rubber bathing suits are upon us.
1 rubbered hard enouyh at last year's 1
models. These new designs can be
carried in a compact or a vest pocket.
It slips over the head and shoulders
and adjusts itself to the body, and it
I will even show up a wart on your
anatomy. The flesh -colored patterns
ait* very deceptive indeed and many,
many men will bo disappointed when 1
they Anally Ami out that "she" actually
has on a bathing suit.
. 'l*o ta xpa.\er has noted with much i
interest and concord" that our law-'
I ^ 1I
making and tax assessing bodies have!
(so they say) cut expenses from 25 j
to 50 percent, but neither taxes nor!
the tax levies have been reduced. In.
other words, if you were to gel your!
2 legs .and your I head cut-off, you'
weigh just exactly the same numberi
of pounds that yoif weighed before,
you got hurt, yet. you wouldn't have
nothing left but your arms and body.
That's politics for you.

"1T7"HEN Super-Shell used to cost extra, a
* lot of people naturally got along without
it. It was the big, expensive cars that
stopped oftenest at Super-Shell pumps.
But not any longer! Today Super-Shell is
for sale at the price of regular gas. In price it's
everybody's gasoline. In performance it's still
a premium gasoline. The same surging power
in high. The same hair-trigger starting, the
same flashing pick-up.
Its anti-knock qualities are actually better
than when you paid a premium for it?better
than those of any regular-price gasoline. If
this seems too good to be true?in all fairness,
just try a tankful and judge for yourself. *
Golden in color for easy identification?
Super-Shell is SUPER-FUEL. Pay only the
"
regular gas price. At all Shell stations*
If you prefer an ethylized gasoline, buy
Super-Shell Ethyl ? an improved gasoline
with ethyl added. A double-premium gasoline
at a single-premium price.
"I like ? premium ftasollne. You're only
ftot t" drtre my La Salle once with SuperShell
In the tank to see why. That's certainly
good news about the reduced price."
Rklftefleld, Conn.
"I haven't finished my flrat tankful of
Super-Shell yet, but my Chevrolet never
ran like this before. You could atick back
the S* extra and I'd atlll buy It."
