Hansen Garage TREMONTON on brevity, possibly because it is rare, either in speech cr in writing. Loquacity is a besetting sin; volubility afflicts a multitude; garrulity is a scourge. Consequently terseness of speech is the more favored. Then, too, it is art to be able to speak or write in terse strong sentences. Abraham Lincoln was not especially given to epigram, but he was often He seldom wrote long letlaconic. ters or made long speeches. His famous letter to Mrs. Bixby contains 135 words. His Gettysburg speech is composed of ten sentences and 273 Both of his inaugural adwords. dresses were brief. His longest speech, the one delivered at Cooper Union, New York City, was not much over an hour, and this was exceptional. Lincoln's letters for the most part were exceedingly short, sometimes to the point of brusqueness. Many of them consisted of only two or three sentences. To a long drawn out letter inviting him to participate in a certain lawsuit a letter that was unnecessarily long and tortuous Lincoln replied by indorsing the voluminous document with these words, "Count me in. A. Lincoln." IT IS A PRETTY CUSTOM Good old St. Valentine, who died a martyr in Rome many centuries ago, must stand as a guardian over the celebration of his day to keep it from moderu defilements. Little or no at tempt has been made to modernize this quaint old anniversary sacred to lovers. For weeks the stores have displayed the pretty little tokens of the type which have served as lovers' gifts for generations. Even the delicate, lacey creations so dear to the hearts of swains and maidens of a century ago, still persist, little changed in form. Instead of beine- "jazzed up" to meet the spirit of our age, St. Valentine's Day has become even more refined. The ugly, sometimes malicious conceptions known as "comic valentines" have almost disappeared. Those who still recognize the day seem to cherish only the tenderer emotions. Of course for those who would make more lavish gifts the florists and the confectioners have a variety of suggestions, but the little greeting cards still carry the message of love and perpetuate a pretty custom. - You can tell a sport model at a It has nine colors instead of glance. seven.
