LINES AND ANGLES
...by... TED OSBORNE . . . KHJ
Th' teller who borrows money borrows trouble. Th" feller who lends money don't have t' borrow trouble — he has it already.

There was a young fellow from Ga.
Who was taken to court as a fa. The judge gave him ten,
In the San Quentin pen;
"Where," he said, "they wall lodge you and ba."
Opportunity knocks at least once at every man's door, but sometimes th' man is such a knocker himself that Opportunity can't make itself heard.

Was.

Too much o" somethin' is nearly as bad as not enough of it. I know a woman who cleans her house so much that it's nearly alius in a mess.

A satirist is a feller who discovers a lot o' things about hisself, an' says 'em about somebody else.

Most people think a rabbit
Is cowardly and frail. And yet, though he is timid,
No cook can make him quail.

It'd be easy enough t' be content with little — if nobody hadn't no more.
* * * B-achelors A-re C-haps H-aving E-nough Luck
O r brains to

S-ingle.

Ev'rybody in th' world has his faults, but th" main dif ference in folks is whether they're ashamed of 'em or proud of 'em.
* * *
Th" word "Save" simply knocks the "L" out of "Slave."'

Love is a good deal like philosophy. Th' more a feller has of it, an" th" less he talks about it, th" better off he is.
