A Hoosier Chronicle

CHAPTER XXI
29/33

The only man I know that I'd lend money to without security is a Jew.

Let's not jump on people just to hurt their feelings.

And besides, we don't any of us know much more these days than old Moses knew.

And that fellow who writes the little two-line pieces under the regular editorials--he's too smart, and he ain't always as funny as he thinks he is.

There's no use in popping bird-shot at things if they ain't right, and that fellow's always trying to hurt somebody's feelings without doing anybody any good." She opened a drawer of her desk and drew out a memorandum to refresh her memory.
"You've got a whole page and on Sundays two pages about baseball and automobiles, and the horse is getting crowded down into a corner.
We"-- he was not unmindful of the plural--"we must print more horse news.
You tell Atwill to send his young man that does the 'Horse and Track' around to see me occasionally and I'll be glad to help him get some horse news that is news.
