Crazy Stuff BY GOODWIN A Pleasant Grove school ma'am had been telling her students about George Washington, then asked the question: "Can anyone tell me which Washington was a great general or a great admiral?" The small son of a fisherman fish-erman raised his hand and answered: "He was a great general, I seen a picture of him crossing the Delaware, and no admiral would put out from the shore standing stand-ing up in a skiff." An epitaph from Westminister West-minister Abbey, on John Gay, the Poet, is said to have been written by himself. him-self. . "Life is a jest, and all things show it; I thought so once and now I know it." This stuff you sold me might be all right for some things," said the bald headed head-ed man, "But it ain't brung back my hair. Look at them bumps on my head". The druggist looked at the label on the bottle, "Great Scott," he gasped. "I've made a terrible mistake. This is bust developer." She has an ermine coat and a foreign car, A ten-room flat with a built-in-bar, And she does it all on thirty per. Believe it or not, it's the truth dear sir, Yet five years back, some teaching hick, Flunked this gal in arithmetic. arith-metic. One of our local bishops attending Commencement exercises at a Salt Lake college, was apparently abashed at the toilettes of the ladies as they were extremely ex-tremely decolletee. After looking at the group with an opera glass one of the Party exclaimed: "Honestly, "Honest-ly, bishop, did you ever see anything like it in all your life?" "Never." replied the bishop. bish-op. "Never since I was weaned."

PRIMARY PENNY DRIVE SUCCESSFUL in the service know where Utah is. True, there are quite a number num-ber of proposals pending for post war planning and the hoped-for construction deriving therefrom that will furnish the hoped-for employment. But at the end of the two-thirds mark of this session, ses-sion, none of them have been put into law. For the past number of years the school people and all those concerned with the education of Utah's best crop have been determinedly de-terminedly trying to solve the question of financing Utah's fine educational program In a way compatible with both the educational educa-tional desires of the people and the ability to pay of the taxpayers. taxpay-ers. None of the measures calculated cal-culated to accomplish those desirable de-sirable ends have even gotten beyond committee consideration. And as the twenty-sixth session ses-sion got into its forty-third day Monday, both houses had sifting committees to tell the lawmakers which bills they could or could teen representatives, or better, the majority of either, can tell from now on out what laws the lawmakers will have a chance to pass upon. Moot questions of civil service, retirement privileges, tax ceilings, ceil-ings, post war aviation, highways, high-ways, appointments to various state commissions, salaries, sale of liquor by the drink or otherwise, other-wise, control of Jlvestock on the public domain, fishing and hunting hunt-ing opportunities, the care of in mates in public institutions, these and a lot more of equal interest in-terest are out on the limb which the sifting committees can decide de-cide to saw off or leave dangling. Of course, if the legislature decides to pet at all of this business, busi-ness, they can make mighty worthwhile determinations. But so far as the record now shows the possibilities have far outdistanced out-distanced accomplishment. Governor Maw finds himself In a not enviable position be cause even the joint appropria tions committee gave his money bill, last week presented, scant courtesy. What the senate will do with his recommendation of appointments seems destined for equally Impolite consideration. Partisan politics again last week Jumped into law making consideration. In talking about liquor legislation, fiery young Senator Mitchell Mellch of Moab declared that the story now should be "Morals and the Gov ernor," rather than as during the late campaign "Morals and the Mayor". Representative Tom Rees, loquacious Salt Laker put in a bill that would do away with all political parties by simply simp-ly forbidding any and all state or county or municipal employees em-ployees from holding office in partisan organizations. Friday was the last day for the Introduction of new bills without either getting the consent con-sent of either house or suspending suspend-ing the rules and few bills can be expected to get such favored treatment with the result that the 500 bills thus far presented will have to be about enough, if not more so! But the spade committee work has been done on most of them with the result that both houses are now in a position to dispose of bills Just about as rapidly as the sifting committees release them to the floor for consideration. NEW HOME NURSING CLASS TO BEGIN A new Red Cross home Nursing class will begin in Lehi the early part of March, it is announced by Red Cross officers. There will be room for twenty-five ladies to take the course, and those interested are asked to contact their Relief Society president pres-ident immediately.
