The poodle population of Holly
wood is 9,876. * The baby population is
2,645. There are 876 pet monkeys and
bahboor.a and chimpanzees in that
community. If babies could be sub
stituted for poodles and monkeys and
baboons and chimpansees ard other
jungle pets, there would in all proba
bility be a fallirg off in divorces of
something like 75 per cent. Those
high-stepping right riders don’t con
sider matrimony any more sacred than
passing the buck.

I find that the hew currency is just
as hard to get as the old, and while
we are aware of the fact that money
talks, none of the larger bills have
seen fit to speak to me so far.
The farm board will hold its first
meeting in a few days. If it can get
the full co-operation* of the corn
borer and bad weather and the boll
weevil ar.d the potato bug and the
fruit fly and the sharp-shooter, it will
succeed admirably in helping the
nearby farmer get a better price for his pro

A rank communist who gets his
orders from the Third Ir.tematmal
and practices the policies of bolste-

form of government and expects to
make America his home, is as much
out of place as a mad-dog at an or

Mr. Legge, (Gosh, what a name),
chairman of the farm relief board,
seems to think that cotton is already
too high and that no relief is needed
in that field of agriculture. That’s ex
