You need not stop complaining about the humidity just because it*s winter. You can, of course, complain about the lack of humidity if the ■ house is hot. If you wish to avoid any trouble along this line, just help some of the sheep-raisers this time of year. After a few night sessions of taking care of lambs, you don't notice either the humidity or the lack of it. Then, if you’re not thoroughly satisfied with the heat of the house, get yourself up early enough to help feed the cattle. Your hot coffee will taste better at breakfast.
There used to be a Thrift Week, but little has been heard of it lately. It might be that too few people took enough notice of it. Some fellow said that he never had enough money to keep track of, let alone be thrifty with, so perhaps it would be rather silly for him to celebrate Thrift Week. If you insist that the observation of Thrift Week be revived, I would suggest that you celebrate by tying a nickel in the corner of your handkerchief. If you do this whenever you have a spare nickel, some day when you are in financial striats you may find that you have three or four nickels.
