nearly ready for posting?
Seoretary-Oh, mol I've been
working on 1t only three weeks.
Treasurer Three weeks! You
used to get it out in a couple Of
hours.
Secretary-That was before o.
tober, 1929, sir. IN those days the
members Of a golf club who didn't
pay their dues stood out con-
spicuously. Now I have 10 hunt for
the members who HAVE paid EN-.
Treasurer How far have you
got?
Secretary-I'm nearly through
the CS. / finished the BIS yesterday.
TreaSurer-How do they stand?
Secretary-I thought I found a
man in the B list who was paid up,
but IL turned out to be an error.
TreaSurer-How do things look
under the Cs2
Secretary-Ive been through
most OF the names under G and
haven't found any paid up MEM
hers yet. There's a check against
the name Of Mr.. Caliper. What

Treasurer remember: In an
swer 10 our fifteenth bill for last
years dues he wrote that he had
no money, but would we consider
taking his roadster, a box or holi-
day cigars and a blue suit in settle
ment.
Secretary-That's nice OF him.
Most OF our members haven't Of
tered a thing. There's a red line
under the name OF Mr.. Crimper.
What does that indicate?
Treasurer - Crimper? Crimper?
Oh. yes, I recall his case, too. He
owes for dues ever since the market
break in the spring Of 1880 and has
offered 10 work them out by help
ing 10 paint the mems locker room.
I may have TO settle On that basis.
I wish you'd hurry through the
list. How many members have paid
up so far as you can see from a
casual Inspections
Secretary found only three
One Of them Is in the ( list. He's
a Mr.. Egglestone. He's all paid up
10 date and doesn't owe the club a
nickel.
Treasurer-Oh. come, there must
be some mistake. A member of a
golf club with his dues all paid
up to the minute? Don't be silly.
Secretary-It seems incredible.
but it's so.
Treasurer-what did you say the
name was?
Secretary-Egglestone, Lucius r.
TreaSurer-Oh, I know him. II
would be just like him 10 pay his
dues in a year like this. He's al
ways trying to attract attention.
How about those under f?
Secretary-There's a Mr.. Fubbs.
He's marked paid for six months
IN advance.
Treasurer-He's marked as paid
for six months in advance.
