The Debating Society.

"a debating society" explained re-
porter YOU see it's this way. Sup
pose there's a new bill introduced in
Congress putting a tax on canary birds
as pets. The citizens wait until they
find out whether the Commissioners are
going to support the bill or oppose it and
then some citizens association decides
to take the opposite view. Then they
challenge the Commissioners to debate.
The challenge is accepted and the
trouble begins.
THE citizens discuss the various
species Of canary birds, their breeding,
their most musical notes and the best
canary seed to use. When the time S
expired and the airs full of feathers,
the Commissioners thank the citizens
for their courtesy and the Commission
ers announce they will take the matter
under consideration. Then few days
later the Commissioners inform the pub
lie that they adhere to their first opinion
and believe canaries ought to be taxed. =
Don't they ever change their minds?'
