If he slips away to see his girl one or two evening* a week he is a gadabout. If he never notices the ladies, he is stock-op. If he is quiet, he doesn't talk enough -- doesn't know enough to make suggestions. If he is quick to make suggestions, he is full of "hot air* and "too fresh." If he ever faffs to hear the alarm In the morning, he is a lazy cuss. tt his tests ace lower than th<\ creamery, he doesn't know his business. If they ire higher than the creamery, he ought to tell the creamery where to "head in." If he forgets to clean his shoe*, he »s slovenly. If he is particular about hit dress, he is a dude. If he doesnt partake of certain foods, he is ftnicky about his eating. If he eats some of everything, he eats too much. If he doesn't say the Holstein is the best breed, he is a Guernsey man. If he doesn't say the Guernsey is the best breed, he is a Holstein man. If he mentions a good Jersey his father owned, he is a Jersey man.
