Old Egg Week will
Furnish Fine Abb
To Nickel Nursers
BY WALTER HOBAN.

NEW YORK, Jan. 1--we, are
scheduled TO observe 3. Franklin's
birthday next week by being as
tight as dudes collar and as close
as the paint on the roof. Nobody
is supposed to spend anything but
time and you're not expected to pay
anything but respects.
This outburst of economy is call
ed thrift week" and the governor
has ordered ii. All the tax dodgers
are requested to take a head lock
on the bankroll and squeeze it till
it's covered with fingerprints. To
most of the hard boiled nickel
nurseers we know, this order is as
unnecessary as ice wagons in
Moose Factory, Canada.
Still something's got to be done
to celebrate Mr.. Franklin's birth
day. Seeing that he was the daddy
of the tightwads, this Egg Week
seems fitting. ,.
A couple OF centuries ago, Bon
earned quite a reputation as a coin
collector. But hugdred-dollar over
coats were as scarce in those days
as submarines or knee-length
skirts. tifteen-dollar derby would
have started a worse riot than the
Boston Tea Party. Getting by a
midget expense was soft in those
piping times. Mr.. Franklin could
buy pair of red plush pants for
S2.I5, but you can't do that now.
Poor Richard blew into Philadcl-
phia with a coffee cake under each
arm. The buns sect him back on
cent each and there was no cover
charge. Ben would have been bet
ter rationed If he had been equip
ped with more arms. but a coffee
cake was a good armful then.
a lady who got a peep at him
thought ne was a bread wagon.
When she discovered her mistake
she realized what great guy he
would be to send for groceries, and
so they were married.
After that Mr.. Franklin discor-
cred electricity and grabbed him
self a 4.0Oo-volt shock every time
he shot dime for d new suit or a
set of parlor furniture. lie also
quit the carry-your-own-lunc move
ment and founded the Saturday
Evening Post. That was an
economical trick. for the Post then
had worse circulation than a
mummy and the cost of white paper
was a nickel ton.
And so Benz. got rich and had his
wise cracks quoted in interviews on
how to succeed by spending les!
dough than al cat in a cathedral.
Now the governor thinks it would
be a great idea for everybody to
spend less darby on purpose next
week than he usually does by &C
cident.
If Mr.. Franklin hadn't kicked or
he would be 2l5 years old next Mon
day. Even at that ase he would
probably sQueek few words to
the Gov and tell him the difference
between hiding the family fortune
under loose brick and smart
spending.

even better than it did against West

Fasteners too greasy to stop.

H|LLTOPPERS
PLAY BETHANY
West Virginians Will Battle Blue
and Gray Here on Thanks
giving Day.

Georgetown's varsity eleven will
meet the Bethany Buffaloes on the
gridiron. here next Thanksgiving
Day. This will be the first time in
many years that Georgetown has
played at home on Turkey Day,
Holy Cross appearing at the Hilltop
in the last one.
Bethany made it's bow in Wash =
ington last fall against George
Washington, winning, ~ to 3. The
extreme speed of the West Vir-
ginians, with their system of open
play, made them many friends here
and so Georgetown, casting about
for an opponent on December 4, ar
ranged a game with them.
Georgetown managed to win from
Bethany, IA to s, after a hard fight.
The Hilltoppers were pretty well
shot to pieces by their difficult
schedule and lack Of material and
Bethany made them hustle for the
victory. Many believed that, had the
Geld been hard and dry, the Buffaloes'
superior speed might have given
them the edge. AS it was, the slip
perry going held them back.
The Blue and Gray football sched-
uIe will be announced in few
days. Tho biggest games are ex-
pected to be those with Georgia
Tech, Boston College, Holy Cross
and Fordham.
