When Harry Daugherty came down
the street year ago last July with a
pocket full of injunctions it was,
Harry Daugherty, there he comes"
When Harry Daugherty goes down
the street today it's Harry Daugh-
erty, there he goes"
What a difference, friends. country
men an dSenators! Yea, Romans, all,
what a difference!
But that is more or less beside the
point The apple sauce today is not
of any single persons mixing. We
are assembled to- recount amiasle
nothings surrounding a social event of
somewhat more than usual import
ance-the soiree of the season, as IT
we're, wherein there were gathered the
elite of our city. Not one glass of
| fashion, but several glasses, and exc a
few cans, mayhap, were there. Whose
butler answered the door bell and put
away the wraps is not as important.
Nor need we consider who took care
of the knocks, coming and going.
We are concerned with who was
there. however, and it seems to the
point to dwell a bit on the doings OF
those who participated in the enter
| tainment.
All, mates, here was wholesouled
jollifcation indeed, Leave 1t to the
elite to drill down TO the real JOY OF
| life. Leave it to them to find the
gushing, flowing, source of merriment.
As the late Mr.. Derrickman once re-
marked, "oi'l tell the world"
First there was a solo by Albert
Fall. From his throat there poured
forth the plaintiye if not altogether
| LIQUID notes of the line, Should auld
acquaintance be forgot"
Then other friends drifted in, per
haps attracted by the music, perhaps
by invitation, and Mr.. Sinclair and
MIR Dohney were drawn into the
circle, with Albert at the Teapot,
pouring with the hospitality and eclai
for which Three Rivers, New Mexico
| is so noted.
Mr.. Denby. not be outdone by his
former cabinet associate, dropped III
out of courtesy and delighted the as
semblage with a pleasing ditty en-
titled. "Take me Back to Michigan
The lines of this now popular re-
frain run, as memory serves, some
| thing like this: ,.
III never wish again
To see Albert Fall again
Except in Lake Michigan!
The Brothers Roosevelt, Col. TED
and the boy Archie, played around
/ tho ward in manner that no douD'
/ exasperated some OF the eigeIS
Peculiarly aggravating was led
prank in climbing a tree rlght az lht
| front door, whistling Il don't know
where the papers went" while Arch
Iookipg over the transom hummed
right In Mr.. Sinclair's face, that old
tinne nopular air, 81 don't want Il
/ play in your yard, | don't like you any
Those who remember the old sons
a.ill remember that the next lines rui
somewhat this way: ..o,,.
I've got slivers left from last
time
Mr.. Sinclair graced the party b;
doing a dramatic recitation, conelud
ing with this striking perorat5on1;;
as there balm in Gilead Is theI
oil in Wyoming? I'll say there rs; :,
Mr.. Dohney was more modest. "a "a
has ever been of a retiring disposition
u'itb no flair whatever for paraelhl
himself in the public eye. Even N th n
seclusion Of the house OF ms frlend l
he he is known to lack that easy grae.
With which others move about an.
mass n,s,. the buck. He merely remarked .
a. refreshments were passeo,
fbought I'd cut myself a piece o o
Ike but if Uncle wants 1t ne cal
nave it.p Musin g to, himself now no"
e~eT over he murmured, "but there mus
- MORO cake somewhere"
Mr.. Daugherty came in late. d
vas ' late no doubt, because it WASH.
9ntil late that he was thrown OUT Q
tbe last place he was at. Anyho"
