HOOKWAY
Won Out In His Argument
Over Name Of A Street

Councilman Hookway, recently re-
turned from journey to the ex-
tremes of East Burgess street, pro
voked merriment at council meeting
Monday night by continually refer.
ring to 'Dobbin" street in a speech
wherein he set forth the demands of
certain residents of that section for
sewer. -
President Clutter stayed the i'm
pending uproar of laughter by ex-
planning to Councilman Hookway that
the street in question was designated
as Durbin street and not by the name
Of the old family horse.
Undaunted, Hookway informed the
president and members of the coun-
Gil that the official signboard of the
street bears the inscription "Dobin''
and, although it may have been let
tered by an illiterate, the sign can be
interpreted in only one way by those
whose dealings have not brought
them into intimate contact with the
various highways and byways in the
city of Mt. Vernon.

PORK BARREL
Opposed by Ashbrook, who May Re
sign Craftsmanship

Washington, Feb. 29-Representa-
tive William A. Ashbrook of Ohio is
in what might be called a pickle. He
is chairman of subcommittee No. 4>of
the house committee on public build
ings and grounds which has jnrisdic-
ton over the framing of legislation
making appropriations for public
buildings in eleven states-Ohio, Ari-
zona, Arkansas, Illinois, Louisiana,
Maine, Nebraska, New Hampshire,
New Jersey, Oklahoma and Wiscon-
sin.
Ashbrook has taken the ground that
an omnibus building bill at this time,
when preparedness calls for such a
large outlay and when the country is
thoroughly aroused against the pork
barrel, would be unwise.
The other four subcommittee,
each representing a collection of
states, are busy making plans to
spring leak in the pork barrel. Ash
brooks subcommittee never mas met,
because he refuses to call it together.
Today there are indications that if
Ashbrook doesn't call his subcommit-
tee together he probably will have to
relinquish the chairmanship in favor
of some one who will.
81 am going to consult Speaker
Clark about it," said Ashbrook, "and
I shall probably decide upon course
then. I suppose that l shall have to
resign the craftsmanship. will not
help to frame a pork barrel bill and
will not vote for one after it is
framed. So guess I am elected to
get off that subcommittee"

Mcmahon Finds
Brother Spirit
In Frisco Poet

When p. Maurice Mcmahon wrote
his poem The Prudes' some weeks
ago and gave II to the Star-Bulletin,
he was destined TO more than local
lame. Over In San Francisco some
enc picked UP the copy and knowing
Macs love for poetry sent him back
the following verse from the San
Francisco Bulletin OF September 20.
The local bard says that there is
so much similarity between the
thought expressed In his own produc-
ton and that or the San Francisco
papers poet that he is inclined to
think the latter must have had some
such experience as did McMahon--a
call-down on the beach for appearing
In swimming trunks. But here are
the verses: T.: Ill.,.
In the face OF each dissenter, H.
I'll invade the civic center
With dozen mother hubbards
: So you cannot see the nymphs;
Every leg shall have stocking.
So the sight will not be shocking
If our city dads and others
Choose to steal a furtive glimpse.
And as far as / am able,
shall dress each desk and table,
And the Naked Truth shalt tremble
II enc lone square inch she bares;
In the sacred name of Virtue.
There1l be nothing left to hurt you,
For I'll even drape the legs
(0r lower limbsl OF all the chairs
In these days of reformation, Il
When the slightest indication
or nudity Is banished from
The range OF human sight,
And | see such staneh devotion
To the Puritanic notion
That the body's lovely outlines
Should be hidden from the sight
have reached this firm decision:
] will strive to purge the vision
of my friends and fellow mortals;
So, to serve this righteous end,
Matchless modesty I'll bring EN-;
shall take q bolt of gingham
Whose modest folds will cover
Every sight that might offend.
