. . Open Your hind - Not Your Mouth ( contributed by a reade.r) A lot of saps get themselves into trouble by _blowing their stacks over nothing. Most of the time they're up .in . the air because of something they think somebody said about the:qi.. Only usually they .thought wrong because .nothing was said. -People with brains avoid this pitfall by thinkil).g before they open their Y§.PS, and - especially - by counting to ten or even a hundred before letting temper get the besto<ff them~ Rumpus Euchre Eleven tables gathered for play on March 30th.

I just ran into "herry Ivlilly11 again and say was she mad. She was so mad I thought she was going to burst her buckle. Fearing that she was about to commit a homicide on my person, I offered her a stick of chewing gum which she accepted as a token of peace. I then· ventured : "Please don't hit me and I'll promise to be good." ";,it down and shut up you ·dehydrated runt," she siiapped and bursting into tears she proceeded to tell me all her troubles. \Jell folks here's the sad, sad story. It seems that in last week I s paper someone wrote an article about Ivien Janted. Since then poor 11Eerry Iviilly" has been bes1~ged by~ you guessed it, "men". She has gone out with punks who drove lip in.Tront of her house and "beeped" the horn, expecting her to come flying out of the house as if the king had just driven up. She has gone out with drunks who vomited all over her brand new seven dollar mini- _skirt. She has been serenaded by married men who told her thaf they were really · singl·e, or that they' were divorced, or that their wife didn 1 t really understand them,' or that they were going to get a divorce and marry her, or that they couldn't get a divorce until the children were grown up, - but in any case they were madly in love with her and wouldn't she let them love her. She has gone out with iron vforkers who showed her their stamp collections. She has gone out with office boys who showed her their tattoos. She has gone out :,rith men who stepped on her feet,wh en they danced with her, instead of on the floor . She has gone out 1-Jith men who told her about all their other girl friends and about all their expeniences with all their other girl friends . .She has gone out with men who wanted to prove that they loved her. She has gone out with men who wru1ted her to prove that she loved them. She has gone out with men who solemnly said that she was the first, the last and the only girl that they ever loved. She has gone out with men who wanted her body but not her soul, her soul but not her mole, her mole but not her mind, . her mind but not her emotions, h.er emotions but not her contentment. Some wanted her joy but not her sadness, some wanted -her successes but_ not her failures, some wanted her kindness but not her anger. .After "herry Lilly" had told me all these things she laughed - I laughed, she cried - I cried. Then thinking I had won her sympathy, I said "ah 11herry hilly, " what will you do now"? " But she reached into her purse, exchanged her switch blade for a finger nail file and calmly began to peel an orange. Staff New Credit : W. LaForme, S. Shantz Six Nations: A. & W.
