Naturally I do not know of such a speak
easy, but then get to thinking about Good
Time Charleys little Gingham shoppe over IN
Forty-seventh street, and how Charley is not
going so good the last time am in there and
here is maybe a chance for me to steer a little
trade his way, because. after ALL guys with
two yards in their pocket are by no means
common nowadays
So I take Tobias Tweeney around to Good
Time Charley's. but the moment We get in
there am sorry We 60, because who Is present
but dozen parties from different parts of
the city. and none Of these parties are any
bargain at any time. Some Of these parties,
such as Harry the Horse and Angie the OK,
are from Brooklyn. and three are from Har-
lem including Little Mitzi and Germany
Schwartz, and several are from the Bronx,
because I recognize joey Uptown and Joey
never goes around without a few intimate
friends from his own neighborhood with him.
Afterward I learn that these parties are to
a meeting on business matters at q spot near
Good Time Charley's, and when they get
through with their business they drop in to
give Charley a little complimentary play, for
Charley stands very good with one and all
In this town. Anyway, they are sitting around
table when Tobias Tweeney and I arrive,
and I give them all a big hello, and they
hello me back, and ask me and my friend to
sit down as it seems they are in most hos
pitable frame of mind.
Naturally, I sit down because it is never
good policy to decline invitation from
parties such as these and I motion Tobias to
sit down, too, and I introduce Tobias all
around, and all have q couple of drinks
and then explain to those present just who
Tobias is and how his ever-loving doll tosses
him around, and how Joe Trivett punches
him in the snoot.
IA /ELL, Tobias begins crying again, because
w no inexperienced guy can take q couple
of drinks of Good Time Charley's liquor and
not bust out crying, even If 1t is Charley's
company liquor and one and all are at once
very sympathetic with Tobias, especially Little

Mtzi, who is Just tossed around himself more
than somewhat by q doll In fact, Little hfftN
starts crying with him.
Why" Joey Uptown says, Il never hear Of
greater outrage in my life. although he
says, II can see there is some puppy in you
at that when you do not return this Trivetts
punch But even So" Joey says, If have
time will go back to this town you speak of
with you and make the guy hard to catch.
Furthermore" he says. Il will give this Miss
Deborah Weems piece of my mind
Then I tell him how Tobias Tweeney comes
to New York figuring he may meet up with
some desperate characters Of the underworld,
and they hear this with great interest, and
Angie the OK speaks as follows:
Il wonder" Angie says IF we can get in
touch with anybody who knows such charac-
tiers and arrange to have Mr.. Tweeney meet
them, although personally" Angie says, II
loathe and despise characters of this nature"
Well, while Angie is wondering this there
comes a large knock at the front door and
it is such knock as only the gendarmes can
knock, and everybody at the table jumps up.
Good Time Charley goes to the door and takes
a quiet gander through his peephole and we
hear a loud, coarse voice speaking as follows:
open up. Charley the voice says. We
wish to look over your guests. Furthermore.
the voice says, tell them not to try the back
door, because We are there, too"
1T is Lieut. Harrigan and his squad" Char
ley says as he comes back to the table where
We are all standing. Some one must tip
him off you are here. Well" Charley says,
those who have rods to shed will shed them
now"
At this. Joey Uptown steps up to Tobias
Tweeney and hands him a large Betsy and
says to Tobias like this:
Put this away on you somewhere joey
says "and then sit down and be quiet. These
coppers are not apt to bother with you" Joey
says 'f you sit still and mind your own busi-
ness but" Joey says, 1T will be very tough on
any OF lis they find with a rod especially any

FURTHERMORE judge that this Erasmus
is not such q large city. but very pleasant
snd that Tobias Tweeney Is born and raised
there and is never much of any place else
in his life although he is now rising 25.
Well, It seems that Tobias Tweeney has
fine position in shoe store selling shoes and
is going all right when he happens to fall
in love with doll by the name of Miss
Deborah Weems whose papa owns gas sta
tion in Erasmus and Is a very prominent citi-
zen L Judge from what Tobias tells me that
Miss Deborah Weems tosses him around quite
rome which proves to me that dolls in small
towns are Just the same as they are on Broad
WAY.
SHE is beautiful Tobias Tweeney says
speaking of Miss Deborah Weems. Il do not
think I can live without her. But" he says
Miss Deborah Weems will have no part OF
me because she is daffy over desperate char
acters of the underworld such as she sees in
the movies at the Model Theater in Erasmus
"She wishes to know" Tobias Tweeney says,
why I cannot be big gunman and 60 around
plugging people here and there and talking up
to politicians and policemen, and maybe looking
picturesque and romantic like Edward G. Robin
son and James Cagney or even George Raft.
But. of course Tobias says, Il am not the type
for such a character. Anyway he says Con-
stable Wendell will never permit me to be such
Q character in Erasmus.
so Miss Deborah Weems says I have
more nerve than a catfish" Tobias says, land
she goes around with guy by the name Of
Joe Trivett, who runs the Smoke Shop, and
bootlegs ginger extract TO the boys in his back
room and claims Al Capone once says Hello

VAUGHN HAS RULES.

Vaughn De Leath, the radio SongStresS
who headlines this weeks stage bill at
Warner Bros Earle Theater, has formu-
lated a set of rules for those who aspire
to become great broadcasting stars. That
Miss De Leath is qualified to offer this
advice to newcomers in the field of
radio is attested to by the fact that
more than 13 years ago she sang the
first song over an experimental station
operated by DR.. Lee De Forest. Her
audience consisted of ham" radio ex-
perimenters and radio operators of
ships at sea.
Miss De Leath's 10 rules are as fol-
lows:
Perfect tone control. which every
singer must learn as part of his musical
education.
Interpretation-The art of getting
into the spirit or feeling of the thing
that you are doing.
Diction-For radio has become the
medium by which our future generations
are learning the proper pronunciation
of the very difficult words Of the Eng
lish language.
Proportionate volume-Very necessary
when working before a sensitive micro
phone.
Sincerity-Just as necessary in be-
coming a favorite with a radio audience
as in any other line of endeavor
ability-A radio entertainer
must be able to convey to her associates
such as musicians, control operators, an
nouncers. etc. institutions necessary in
properly staging radio program.
Audience visttalization-A radio per-
former must be able to visualize an un-
seen audience, to realize that although
they can not be seen there are thou
sands of listeners hanging on to every
word or note that comes out of the loud
speaker
Adequate rehearsals-It is important
that any radio program. even though it
be Of the impromptu type. be rehearsed
until perfect in every detail. Radio time,
as you know. is run on railroad like
schedule. Each selection. each an
nouncement. must be timed so that the
program will occupy only so much time
and no more.
Opportunities-Make the most of
every opportunity. Remember that little
opportunities grow into larger ones.
Talent-Strive to make the most of it.
