What happens when 1 we?wise to the game,' tney are playing?. Then the worst word that they can say about us is too good for us. All of the bad talk that enertnes ? have circulated ahout usf they- thpn give expression to. They go into so mPch of our .private, affairs ;is- w? have made known to them, and they go from place to place to paddle these things about'us.
