Worrying Won't Win

This is a humor book. The inimitable Abe and Mawruss view the war from their practical, humorous standpoint, to the delight of all readers. American politics and European statesmanship in the idiom of the garment trade are as funny as a sedate business man in a masquerade garment. Morris Perlmutter said to his partner, Abe Potash, as they sat in their office one morning in September, 'the English language is practically a brand-new article since the time when I used to went to night school. In them days when a feller says he is feeling like a king, it meant that he was feeling like a king, aber to-day yet, if a feller says he feels like a king it means that he's got stomach and domestic trouble and that he don't know where the money is coming from to pay his next week's laundry bill. Czars is the same way, too. Former times when you called a feller a regular czar you meant he was a regular czar, aber nowadays if you say somebody is a regular czar it means that the poor feller couldn't call his soul his own and that he must got to do what everybody from the shipping-clerk up tells him to do with no back talk.
