MAKING CONVERSATION I heard two old farmers "Just-atalkin" on the street corner the other day. They woro making Conversation So Utile conversation amounts to anything except talk. Very few of us impart anything worthwhile when we open our mouths. The following is just about what transpired between those two dirt farmers: Mr. Jones: 'Mx>oks like rain." Mr Brown: "Yep, but wind's from \\rong direction " Mr. Jones: "How's your wife's put?" Mr. Hrown: "O. K , 1 recon. AJjt^t heard no complaint lately." Mr. Jonos: "What you thlnRf of tho war ijn Germany?" Mr. Hrown: "Well, the Progressive Farmer says the Pinners would of licked them Ru-shlons If they hud of let them alone." Mr. Jones: "If the It-layona don't help Hitler, Kurope and Prance will whup him." p Mr. Brown: Notice tolfacco, aln't no cheaper while the farmer only got half price for last year's craps." Mr. Jones: "Well, you don't expect them cropper-rations to do anything but rob us, as usual, do you? Gimme chaw." Mr. Brown: "Who do you think will be our next president?" Mr. Jones: "Franklin Delly-no, if he runs. He's the only man In polltics that ever done anything for the lK)orfolks, but rich folks don't like him ... 1 was for Cordeel Hull till Cotton Kd came out for him." Mr. Brown: "Bought your fertyllfce yet? Aint It high tho?" Mr. Jones: "Yes, had it hauled last week. Pity we can't get along without so much sacked sand." Mr. Brown: "Gosh, thar goes a mighty purty gal: I'd like short dresses If I wasn't so old. so says my old lady. t i < Mr. Jones: "How you like your ; new preacher?" ;. Mr. Brown: "Well, he'll do, but he talks money, money, money In every t sermon t." Mr. Jones: "What you think of our L'ounty politic*?" Mr. Brown: "Thin la the year to clean out everything and atari In unsw.,'!, Mr. Jones; "Tuxes luive Just pbout et us up. Ain't wo got a legislature tho?" Mr. Drown: "Dono any plowlnK yet ?" Mr. Jones: ' "A little, but It was too wet. Tills Is going to bo tho sorriest trap year since 1892." Mr. Drown; "I'll have to bo going. Tho old woman is in tho dlnip storo, See you again' soon. "Good-bye." Mr. Clones: "Good-bye." A HAPPY FAMILY I discovered Happy Family No. 1 last week. It was my pleasure to visit in the home of Mr. and Mrs. Jones. Mr. Jones is a farmer. He owns 42 acres of land, 2 milch cows, 2 mule^, 1 wago"n, 1 model A Ford, ft children, 1 wife, and a live-room house with reasonably modern furnishings including electric lights and water works. Mr. and Mrs. Jones buy and sell for cash. They raise some vegetables and chickens and he has 6 bee-hives. Mr. Jones is the teacher of the { men's Bible class at the little coun-' try church near him. His daughter, Susie, plays the organ. Mrs. Jones' Is tiie president of the local missionary society. The two boys sing in the choir. Ettle, their oldest daughter, is married. She and her husband live nearby on a 31-aere-farm, which they are gradually paying for. They live at home and board there. What they need they buy ... if they have tho money. What they want they don't buy unless they have the money to pay ofr it with. Nothing but sickness or death will keep the Joneses from attending church every Sabbath. > Mr. Jones votes at every election and tries to pick the best men. ^hen no "best men" are running for office, he says he shuts his eyes and votes a full ticket. The Joneses take a daily newspaper and 5 selected maga-l zines. The entire family drives to the county seat once a week and takes in a good movie, choosing al-1 ways one that the children should see. I Each person in the family have to earn his or her own money for this trip; if you can't buy your own ticket you stay at home. But up to now <! none of them have stayed at home. c Every night and every morning fain- ' ily prayer is held after a chapter ? read in tho Bible. Each member of the family takes turns in conducting the worship. Mr. Jones does not want pny more I land. He is not interested in making d any more money than enough to live f on comfortably and lay up a little r each month for a rainy day. He loves c his neighbors and speaks highly of 8 them, and so does Mrs .Jones. He J extends favors where favors are need-ied and deserved, but he. rarely asks favors. He has no broken terraces or gullies of Bermuda grass in his fields. * He plants at least 4 new fruit trees every year. He keeps his house and * premises looking nice and wherever ^ he goes he carries a smile and a good ^ word for everybody. The Jonses really and truly know how to live. p Minister Dies In Chair For Slaying! Treuton. N. J., March 29.-i~The Kev. VVali-ey Dworeo&i, 13-ycar-old Polish Baptist minister and first clergyman to ho executed In Now Jersey's electric chatr, stalked to his death last night, mumbling "Holy Father, h^vo my soul." The Camden pastor, condemned (or scheming the strangulation murder of his daughter, Wanda, 18, so ho could collect her life insurance, was pronounced dead six minutes after ho entered the tiny death chamber, preceded by a chaplain. Dworockl was convicted last Octo- t ber 5 of hiring Peter Sohewchuk, 2t- t year old circus rousubout and former ( boarder in the Dworeoki homo, for a small fee to' kill the girl so the father t could collect between $5,000 and $6,000 j insurance. ^ Shewchuk will bo tried , next month. ------ .
