Louis Birsky the real estater
said to Barnett Zapp the waist manu-
facturer. ''That Teller goes from a
Dushcart to a Ottomobeel in less than
i've years"
LESS than two years, you mean"
Zapp said. "What was the price ticket

sky? And since then he's been work.
ing day and night manufacturing
tags for Tag Days. He told me he
could of sold twice as many tags if it
wouldn't be that it's so hard to get
red ink for putting red crosses on
'em."
1.-The war amt been so bad that
way" Birsky said. "It's done a good
deal to make people give to charities"
"War charities" Zapp corrected.
Charities oder war charities" Biz
sky said. "What's the difference?"
There's a whole lot OF difference"
Zapp replied. "a business man which
gives away his money to charity may
oser care a nickel whether the flood
victims ever dry out or not, just so
long as the newspapers don't spell his
name so badly that his customers
couldn't recognize it, understand. At
the same time, Birsky, he's got the
satisfaction of knowing that he amt
helping out the Teller which caused
the flood and who has got plenty of
money to assist the flood victims if it
wouldn't be that he is saving it to buy
dynamite for blowing up more dams.
Yes, Birsky, giving to some war re-
lief funds means relieving them gov
ernments over in Europe from the ex-
pense of caring for their wounded sol
diers and widows and orphans, so that
they can use the money they ought to
spend that way in buying ammunition
to make more wounded soldiers and
widows and orphans for the Americans
to raise relief funds for"
"Well. anyhow. a Teller that gives
money for war charity is just so kind
hearted as teller which gives money
"a charity" Birsky said.
THAT depends on his Intentions"
Zapp replied. ''There is some French
er-Americans and German-Americans
which has got pretty good idee that
war charity is q matter of bookkeep-
ing, and you couldn't call it kind
hearted exactly if such Teller would
inclose with his check letter saying:
Gents: Inclosed herewith please find
check for five hundred dollars for
wounded soldiers. Would be obliged
if you will transfer the sum of five
hundred dollars from your hospital
account and credit same to your liquid
fire and gas account and oblige yours
truly"
SIN that case" Birsky commented,
''if such a Teller thinks he's going to
make a hit with the recording angel,
understand, he might just so well
save his five hundred dollars and get
the same amount of credit by black
lacking couple of perfect strangers
on dark night
Them fellers amt looking to make
a hit with the recording angel" Zapp
continued. they'll be perfectly sat
