x--.Just to prove that every newspaper
man can think of something to write,
whether 1t means anything or not,
here's a slice of the office chatter this
morning.
AS a starter, the famous Clarendon
correspondent, William S. Jewett, busy
telling the world an eyewitness sto, v
of the titanic raids on Thanksgiving
cheer in Arlington yesterday, said:
II don't know what I've got to be
thankful for. Prohibition officers
came right over in my district last
night and destroyed 200, 900 gallons of
rum. Bad news | calls it,"
Vincent +. Callahan, Capitol re-
porter, vouches this expression:
Thankful am l that Congress has
declared itself a vacation; and also
that for while at least l am no
longer visiting the meetings of the
subcommittee investigating milk at
which my appetite is lessened by the
constant chattering of experts on the
bacilli and other contents of Washing
toms milk supply"
Optimistic Andy.
Andy Kelly, boss of the copy desk,
was still thinking about the turkey
he missed in the composing room raf-
fle. Said he:
= II am indeed thankful that the
butchers found the weather and
other well-worn but efficient excuses
for keeping the price of turkey up
where they usually have it around
the holidays. 1t would be appalling
to think of the housekeepers who
would have succumbed from shock
had the markets offered the Thanks

because The Times prints only two
editions today. Is that all? Isn't
that enough"
