Then some one the idea of sending the receipts to Lear employes in service. More swear boxes were added in other departments. Swearing is definitely on the decrease, hut, strangely, swear box receipts continue to increase, Such things as bad war news, bad weather or a defeat of (he local high school team, account for some of the increase. However, the swear boxes now contain more nickels, dimes and dollar bills than pennies.

Apparently, every time the boys even think of cussing, they think of what a lot more cussing the boys in sen ice have a right to do, and drop in the extra coins. FOR QUICK Real Estate with L.
