Parade A Failure

The inaugural parade was COM
plete failure, according to the new
mayor. Col. Bell didn't show up, and
they couldn't find the six white horses.
The mud was too deep in the alleys,
and the amiesite was too slick. Snow
got in the horns of the Shantytown
Music Charmers and the only thing
they could play that sounded halfway
decent was Turkey in the Straw"
and that got monotonous as the party
progressed. Cots lots were covered
with water and in fact somebody
threw a wet blanket over the entire
affair.

Jacob John Treestump has just sent
up a new list of questions to be hand
ed out to the enumerators OF the
senses, and he entrusted them to
Scoops care. Instead of handing
them out to Doc Yutzy, Newton Daw-
son, Cissil Rumsey, and the rest OF
them, Scoop is reprinting them here,
taking up valuable space in his col
umn for the sake of getting this
valuable information gathered and
tabulated by Uncle Samuel.
These new questions which farmers
will be required to answer as well as
the city slickers, are as follows:
Are your married? Why?
How many nights do you stay in?
Have you a little Fairy in your
home?
Have you ever attended a mail
order college?
Were you born in West Virginia or
in the United States?
Can you read Hog Latin?
Do you speak English respectfully?
Are you loafing at your work or
Just loafing?
Are your feet mates?
Do you suffer from ingrown toe
nails, dandruff, "B. o." halitosis, or
enlarged glands? If not, why?
Do you keep your teeth clean? Tin
clude false ones.)
Do you believe in signs?
Do you subscribe for The Republi-
can, Garrett county's leading news
paper?
Are you member of the Amalga-
mated Society for the Prevention of
Work or willing to be?
Have you ever been treated by Doc
Melody?
Have you ever "sat in" when Jim
Painter or Harry Mickey were telling
one?
Have you It?
Have you ever done any shopping
at Patsorcals?
Have you ever?
A Few Things
There are a few things this county
could get along without:
Road hogs.
Moonshiners.
Men who raise mustaches la John
Gilbert.
Bimboes who sit back of you at the
theatre and hum the theme song.
Fewer hypocrites.
All-talkie BARRIERS.

Fans Sample
of New Form

It is rather unusual in local gym
nasiums for a boxer to be ap-
plauded during his workouts, but
that is just what the crowd of rail-
birds did at Fountain Square Sun
day Afternoon as Jackie Purvis
flashed through his final hard
session for his fight with Billy
Petrolle at the armory Tuesday.
The former Kokomo pug showed
an improvement over his form of
a year ago that amazed his friends,
and the way he slugged it out with
sparring partners was a revelation
and gave ample support to the fine
reports on Jackie that have come
from Canada and the east.
Petrolle will come to town late
this afternoon, accompanied by
Jack Hurley, his manager. They
will come from Chicago, where Pc
trolle has been in hard training.
