NOT A THIN DIME
SPENT AT COUNTY
COUNTER THIS WEEK

The we'll known and Justly famous
quiet that is supposed to reign along
the Potomac, is a regular riot com
pared to the activity in the office
OF the court clerk so far this week,
Col. Wyatt is not earning his salary,
and he admits 1t.
For the first time in the history OF
the office business has been worse
than slack for the past four days.
The fact is, there hain't been no bus.
mess this week. Since Monday morn
ing there had not been as much as
a thin dime taken in, up to this morn.
ing. Cupid was absolutely off the
job, for nobody wanted to get mar
ried 1t appeared that everyone was
at peace with everyone else, for no
one wanted to file law suit. If they
did, they were too busy selling oil
stock to take the time, so there was
nothing for Col. Wyatt to do but kid
himself into the belief that he had
earned double his salary when the
rush was on.
