IN WHICH l PEEK INTO A PAL
ACE

If you have got the same habit
that have got of reading everything
/ in the papers that the Spokesman
says you will of saw how many times
He says the things l have said Tor
Him to say. The last time was about
the government having the right to
protect itself against fellers that
wants to talk about over-throwing it.
1t come out in the papers just like
| said it to Mr.. Edgerton.
Yesterday there wasn't so much
news only story about how the
Spokesman had been delayed for a
full minute after He had got into His
automobile by the Spokeslady hav-
ing to coax Her dog to get in too. 1t
made a sweet story for / like to think
of Them having a pet that They love.
Today there is another story very
interesting. 1t seems that the Spokes-
man has got to have exercise but He
is too busy to go and get it so up
there In the great white house where
He stays they have set up an cleo
trio camel thing that works by
machinery and every morning He
gets up on top of it and it gives Him
camel ride and shakes Him up and
starts everything inside Him.
, think that is a wonderful idea but l
should think it would be rather tire
some riding on a camel and not get
: ting nowhere or having any change
of scenery like you would no a real
camel. But l suppose the Spokes-
, man would be too busy to look at
the scenery anyhow, He has got to be
: thinking all the time about what He
/. is going to stay to the reporters
J when they come to listen to Him
again.
There was a customer left a maya
zine in the Elite Beauty Parlors ana
in it l see a picture of the Spokes-
man. Of course it is not a picture
of Him riding on the camel it is one
that just shows His face. But I cut
it out and took it home and pasted
it on a piece of cardboard and |
have set it up on my bureau so tina;
! | can look at Him while l am think
r ing up things that l can tell MIR.
, Edgerton to tell Him to say to the
l reporters. | wish that Mr. Edgerton
had not told me one thing about Him
that | find myself always thinking
4 while | look at the picture thai He
e is like a singed cat because He is
better than He looks. Of course
know there is movie actors that IS
more sheiks but they have not go1
the great ideas of the Spokesman.
P. S. Well l have went to dlnnel
with Mr.. Edgerton again and it haC
to be cheap place because of tina
scare that we got from seeing a mai
that we thought was following US
Mr. Edgerton says that he does no
know any more about it because tn
man did not follow him on the stree
car. 1t might be that his wife 1
having him Swallowed because she
jealous about him giving so niue
time to trying to understand tn
plain people. He says that she
now certain that a wart which sh
has got on her shoulder is turnin
into angina pectOris and when h
tries to persuade her that it is nc
so she cries and becomes very exc1t
ed and says that he no longer love
= her and that she knows he is Onl
1 waiting for her to die so that i
can run off with some peroxid
| blonde. l asks him that means m
and he says that my guess about
! is better than any mans.
The other thing that it might /
he says some Of his enemies migl
. be having him watched SO as to g
something on him. l says, "HaN
. you got enemies ?" And he say
) Cup there at the great white house
2 have not got anything else and neitl
!. er has anybody else because ever,
one is hating everyone else ar
watching for a chance to lift his sea
Off"
There is a dozen secretaries 1
1T there it seems but Mr.. Edgerton
gV the special one indeed he is real
not a secretary at all he is just tn
on the payroll but they don't pay hi
no very much and the greater part
his pay comes to him on the side O
I'M of funds which is put up by busine
nv men that want to have the say abo
things. And what Mr. Edgerton
m paid for is to be a kind of guard;
ar to the Spokesman to tell Him VIII
ls to say that He wouldn't know if F
wasn't told. And of course Mr.. E
IN gerton has got the right to come i
70 to the big white house at all hou
he of the day or night and it is n
mt many that have got that right al
them that have not got it are intree
of ing and trying to pull down they tn
-oc have.
He said again that it is just like
mr. palace with a king and his courtie
but as l was never in a palace l cou
r. not tell. And he told me about t
: people he has to deal with up the
no in the big white house and of cour
,r. | listened very eager not because
like to gossip but because l have &
NJ to understand about these people
| am going to be one that has g
no the job of teaching the Spokesman
in Mr.. Edgerton says there is an {
no gentleman by the name of Mr.. Pro-
that is sort of grandady to t
tes great Man. He owns a big depal
viii ment store back in the home TOY
and it runs itself and all the old ge
.ict tleman has got to do is to pl
nth around in the big white house a
enjoy the thrills of power. Peol
nv come to him that wants this and til
av- and he listens and looks wise a
says that he will see what can
ole done and he toddles round and a
questions of this and that and by a
oil by he whispers into the Spokesman
cal ear that the welfare of the party
ia ponds upon Pete Whizzle being ma
deputy collector of customs at Sku
