George Holden Tinkham is a new
bachelor congressman from Boston.
noted-or at least he ought TO be
noted, and doubtless soon will be
for having the most horrible sig
nature in congress.
When he signs his name it sug-
gests the signature of a careless hen
dashed off hastily in a radish bed.
Only once in his life has Tinkham
ever written his name in a way that
made it even half legible. That was
when he prepared a sample sigma
ture for the purpose Of having a
facsimile made to go on his official
envelopes. Tnkham worked for
more than an hour on that. And
when he got through il was no more
like his regular handwriting than
if he had hired stranger to do it
for him.
When Tinkham first came to
Washington he inadvertently caused
all the other Massachusetts con-
gressmen to answer more telephone
calls than they ever had before. The
reason was this: Various govern
ment departments kept receiving
letters from some Massachusetts,
member whose name they were I'M
able 10 decipher, and they were
obliged 10 call other members to
learn who it was that signed his
name with his foot.
Today Tinkham's secretary wisely
typewrites the congressman's name
right beneath the signature. In that
way anybody who receives a letter
from Tinkham can easily tell who
has sent it,
Aside from his chirography. Tink-
ham seems To be all right. There
/ are persons who claim 10 be able
to read character from handwriting.
Such a person would put Tinkham
down for a dissipated yeggman. But
he would do the man a grave in
/ Justice. The reason Tinkham writes
] the way he does is because he is
/ eager 10 get at something else. He
