George Ade Date: 10-18-2005 By: murdock	I noticed while reading Excelsor you Fat Head Shep often refered to George Ade so I went out and found a book Permanent Ade. It's an interesting read of short stories written back in the early 40's or so which makes the writings from that time in society. Some witty stories but what I liked most and looked forward to after each story was "The Moral of the Story" Ade has a funny way of writing these.	6

He has been compared to Will Rogers, and Red Skelton,(another Hoosier). Much of Shep's works can clearly be seen to mimic the earlier works of his predecessor, (intentionally or otherwise). While Ade died in 1944, his books can still be found at Amazon.com, etc............. In Hoc Agricula Conc In Est Spittle Louk
