 of How it Feels to be Big Boss
Listening to Complaints, Signing Payrols Trying to Find Time For Multiple Duties Keeps Him On Jump
and 'ths mayor.

The duties of q new mayor and his impressions after a. short time in office were interestingly and, at times, humorously told hy Mayor Gardner (. Weld at a meeting Of the Exchange club last evening at the Rurritt hotel. The meeting was one of the largest attended since the formation of the club,
 The mayor took his listeners back 10 the days of the old swimming hole. Do YOU remember how you used 10 go in for a dip in the old days" he asked. And how you used to paddle around in the shall low water, being only youngster and not used 10 swimming? And then the town bully came along and threw you into deep water? We'll then you had 10 swim or drown and ten to one you'd swim?" The mayor said he had that sensation when elected mayor. He said he vas q. peaceful, law-abiding citizen, when suddenly the big boys came along and before he knew it he was away out in deep water and he was swimming.
 Regarding the duties of q new mayor he said that one of the first is 10 hand out jobs, which is no easy matter. Just because "ffty- second cousin Henry" or somebody else voted for the newly elected off cial, he seems to think that he should be given one of the city posi- tions, for the dispatch Of the duties of which no effort is needed. The mayor said many others come along and ask for jobs for the mothers, fathers. brothers and husbands, They all seem to think that the city will have some easy positions for them. Some of them think the city hall is the place to go 10 when they cant get jobs anywhere else stated
