The bioprnphers of Abraham Lincoln tell u3i about his frequent, use of humor. Some members of his cabinet could not u n d e r s t a n d t h e reason for his resort to the relaxat i o n o f a g o o d 1 a u g h. In many rave situations facing the government he would be found reading a funny story or tell-, ing a joke, It was L i n c o l n ' s s a v i n g "grace.' rt is doubtful if he could hav-e -^jived through some of those trying £ilmes had he not been able to see-the v'ijbuBJ'drous side-of things. ; " •% 'As every cloud h^s a silver 'lining, many a vexing problem has Its fun* side, If we can onl^f see it, PCT- |jhapt this explains why some persons ;„;'*re able to endure great hardships with sort of Indifferent attitude and. fre-y iX^uenlly with a smile.: "Fool's luck," .Home call It--not so; for humor dispels • the mists and enables us to see our problems In a clearer light. The person who is tod seriously minded many times studies a problem from a onesided point of view and his judgment becomes distorted. Have you ever noticed the effect of humor .at a-lecture? The audience has been held at a tension for some time, • joke is related, the atudience relaxes and Is now ready for another argument That audience is not ublike our dally experiences. We are keyed up to a high tension, nerves are taut and our thinking likely to be cloudecT. The grace of humor breaks the tension, we relax njn.i--Tf|(li0renewed vitality, are J to besin 'again. . - Some persons say that, humor cannot be cultivated. That is not true. . A.person can develop the sense of. humor just like any other mental attitude, some ;With more success than others but all with pome degree of progress. Study persons until you discover the humorous. eccentricities Of their natures. Try to see a situation from the viewpoint of the "other fellow" and the funny side may be more easily discovered. Our troubles never seem so serious to others as they . do to ourselves. Bead books which portray humor. Nothing is^more contagious than a good laugh. When an audience begins to laugh, though you may not know the reason, instinctively you •mile and may even join the crowd. Humor Is many times more convincing than argument. Presentation of the ludicrous aide of a situation has won many a debate. Wit demands Imagination; but humor, the opposite of pathos, demands reason and reality. A sense of humor may help you to win your battle and solve your problem; for: "Good humor Is the clear blue «kj •if the soul." , / C WNtrni Newspaper Dnlon.

Carpenter Corporation, al~ most gets a raise for punctuality during eight years' service. On (he morning designated for his raise, he comes In late. Old.J. O. Carpenter fcna iasufrt •* order that the first one in late that morning is to be fired. This makes Jones eligible for the raise and for being fired at the same time. Pretty ftiss Clark, a stenographer, comes in lafe and is fired. She takes it with little concern and is reading the paper M her desk when she notices, from a MiM photo, that Jones looks exactly like Killer Mannion, escaped convict, Songster and murderer, for tefcom ker« is a $25,000 reward offered. NOW OO QN WITH THE STORY The likeness was indeed startling. So much so that Arthur couldn't quite realize he wasn't Killer Mannion. He was to realize It very well -i-and soon enough. At lunch time, he sat In the restaurant scanning the picture and reading every little Item concerning Mannion. One of the other customers, too. was readirtg the newspaper. , He looked once, then again, at Jones. Then back to the newspaper. The customer's hair did everything but Stand on end. Just when this discovery • had caused said customer to, figuratively, lose some ten years of his life. Miss Clark walked in and over to Jones' table. •"Mind if I Sit with you?" "Mind! Of course. Jones didn't mind. My goodness! Meanwhile, other customers were noting that surely here was Killer Mannion sitting in this very restaurant. Bill lit a cigarette. "I've been ...canned and I feel like celebrating." "Canned!" Jones was shocked. " he liked It or not. And he dldnt like it. Would you? "There's no use playing ga-ga^ Mannion," said Spencer, the District i Attorney. "We've picked up Bugga 1 Martin."^ •< "Buggs Martin? Who's he?*; asked Jones. Spencer raged. "If you think you're going to gain anything by--.** "Mr. Spencer," said an aide, "J. G« Carpenter's outside." • s "Show him In. Who Is he?" Jones sighed with relief. "That's my boss. He'll Identify me." » * Old J. G. stormed into the rootiu "What's the idea of dragging me down here Without an explanation of any sort? I'm a busy man, and' Spencer took his arm. "I'll only take a minute of your time, Mr. Carpenter. I Just want you to idetf tify somebody. Take a good look at this man. Do you '.now himl* "Never saw him in my life." Jones was almost tearfuL "But,- Mr. Carpenl#tr, I work for you." "Says Tie works for you.** said Spencer. A' "Maybe he does. We have a largef office--over a hundred clerks. Wail a minute--he does look a bit famil« iar at that." "Certainly,'* said Spencer. "H® would. If you redd the papers this morning*--" J. G, was puzzled a moment, then his eyes widened. "Why--why. It?® Mannion. Killer Mannion!" Instinctively he backed away. In another office. Detective Boyle irked on Bill. It was a nrst-clks* grilling. Nothing but the best tor the moll of a killer. 'What do you wanta stick to k' guy like him for?" questioned Boyle. 'He's got a dame in every town. Travel was to Bill something more than postage stamps. (Posed by Edward C Robinson and Jean Arthur)'! "Yep. Aired ---ozoned -- walking papers--fired r-discharged." People were beginning to'leave the restaurant--hurriedly. Jones, completely unaware that he was sensational, was unperturbed except by Bill's predicament. . "But that isn't fair. I came in late this morning, too." • - Bill was vskeptical, "Quit your kidding." "Yes. 1 did. honestly. About half in hour. And J. G. had given orders to fire the first person who came in late--sb it should've been me. I'll take it up with Seaver right after lunch." "You'll do nothing of the sort," said Bill firmly. The frightened customer had gained enough of his wits to sneak quietly into the telephone booth to summon Police Headquarters. The order went through Headquarters like a spear-head through butter: "Rush it! It's Mannion!" 1 By now, the conversation had turned to travel. It usually either tqrns to travel or the weather or a sale on gowns, if the conversationalists are women. But Jones was saving stamps of all manner and shape, so in this round-about fashion did travel intrigue him. Travel was to Bill something more than postage stamps. Airplanes. * Boats.. Kiddy 'cars. Anything that Could go. That could get places. Jones had just gotten to an interesting anecdote about a Shanghai stamp, when he was rudely interrupted by a very officious voice, t "Come on. stick 'em up! And be Quick about It!" ^ierely the Police, but they were InMftent. -- ones looked up into the Small bore of a tommy-gun. "Why, you're making a mistake. 1--" . "Wait a minute!" snapped Bill *THis name is--" "Shut up!" barked Detective ^toyie. "All right, boys--frisk 'em." Jones tried to Speak quickly. "I'm not . Mannion. My name Is Jones. I'm a member of the Y. M. C A .'Here.'I'M show you my card--" He started to reach into his inside poi kct for the card. He didn't quite make it. for somebody mistook the motion for some- • thinp more ominous in that a gun pUMbt be the result.

' Turn State's evidence and I'll per-'^ sonally guarantee you can beat thai rap." i Bill sighed. "I'll take cheese." Detective Howe actually breezed | Into the Toom. He pulled Boyle ( aside. Something mysterious was! happening. The two detectives talked . in low tones for a moment, then' Boyle made his way back to Bill, i "Well, baby, it might interest you to know that Mannion's just c^n« fessed." >• "No!" "Right In there, this minute," said Boyle. "Tch! Tch! Tch! Just think of * that! Well, I guess the jig's up." "Sure it is. But not for you, kid. Not if you want to play ball." "Can you imagine that heel squealing?" snapped Bill. "Yes, and he says you drove the dM.th car," said Boyle. He did?" Bill grabbed Boyle's arm. "Lieutenant, I'll talk now. I'll tell you everything! What do you want to know?" Boyle was triumphant. "Well, about that Bloomingdale I^ank, stick-Up--it was Mannion, wasn't, it?" .; "Yep--Mannion." i- They brought Buggs Martin in t<? see Jones. Buggs didn't want to go,1 for Buggs was very afraid of Mr; Mannion. He had no taste whatso» . ever for Mr. Mannion. But when*" he saw Jones surrounded by police and with very little likelihood of his having a gun. Buggs felt more se-| CUre. . " "Hello. Mannion." "My name is Jones," shouted Jones. "I guess mine is Mickey Mouse."i Buggs' courage was mounting. "So you broke out to get me, huh? Sorry to disappoint you, Mannion, but you haven't got a chance now. You're sunk. You'll burn for this, and I know a lotta guys ain't gonna . cry. Me in particular." Buggs lifted two long fingers with intent of shoving them into Jones' eyes. "You double-crossin", yellow- bel-'. lied' -" • -j!. Two policemen grabbed Mr. Mar- . tin. In rhe other room, Mr. Boyle continued to prill Bill. "Now. about that .First National' Bank at Harrisburg?" "Mannion did it," answered Bill; "And the Evanston Job?" ' "Mannion,"' •"'And the. Expre'ss Company job at Peoria ?" "Mannion."'
