George Fitch. humorist, does not
forget keokuk in his late contribu-
tons to Golfers, Some Side Swipes. .
Mr.. Fitch has been talking about the
cities which reek with superlatives.
Then he talks about the cities, each
one with its unapproachable, in which
y takes much pride. Among these
cities is keokuk with its big power
mouse, described to an Albany man,
as one in which his state house might
De mlslaid." Red Oak, Iowa, home OF
calendars, is also touched upon in
this same paragraphs.
The following is the way Mr.. Fitch
looks at the cities which are next to
the large cities:
Behind these larger cities come
smaller ones, each with its unap-
proachable in which it takes com
iorting pride: Los Angeles with the
greatest interurban system: Seattle
with the most Titanic city engineer;
Butte with the largest smelter: Grand
Rapids, first in furniture: Indianap-
ohs, supreme in speedways; Dayton,
1he cash register and aeropIane
metropolis: and Columbus with the
most magnificent colored hotel major
uomo in the world, no weights barred.
And behind these swarm hundreds

ais with a holy calm. Moline, Ill.,,
