THE Indianapolis Times got in
Il touch with Mr.. Fortune
after receiving the NEA Service
dispatch from New York and Mr..
Fortune graciously replied:
We'll, 1 don't know what there
is to say about it. I think the
sketch speaks for itself. We pre-
pare them, of course, in accord
ance with the QUESTIONABLE they
send us. I suppose as time went
on, there were more and more
facts of the kind they wanted and
it just naturally grew. 1 knew
some years ago it was the twelfth
longest, but I suppose several of
the older ones have died off and
it leaves me in third place.
Il don't know just what to say
about it. What is there to say?
What you're telling me is new, but
then it's been running for years
and years, and I revise it every
year and add whatever facts are
pertinent. I believe it has been
in for IS years. Yes, 1 have all
those volumes, believe. I don't
believe there is much to say about
it. Yes, 1 think if you'll look in
the front of the book you will find
a list Of all others in the city who
are mentioned in the book"

NNE afternoon last week a belboy named Nc
~ Cullough gave Mr.. Mcintyre three winners one
of them at about 20 TO l, but when Mr. MCINTYRE
went into action at the windows he thought he knew
better and wagered otherwise. But now the racing

call them pleasures of the corps Of correspondents

Theoretically it would be possible for a Journalist
to tear himself away from the exhaustng routine
of headquarters, hire boat a plane and go chas-
ing the President through the islands But that
would run up an enormous expense account and It
would hardly be worth the money to dig up the news
that once more Mr.. Roosevelt had caught no fish
today.
Furthermore, it would be against the accepted
rules which hold that the President is entitled to
privacy for his rest and that the journalists should
keep their distance in Miami and be content with
such information Mr.. Mcintyre gives them.
Unlike most assignments in journalism, the ex-
petitions with the President when he is pleasure

family. There is one income with
three and soon four to support in
ours. Must we pay this bill when
we owe money on school debt OF
my husbands and soon will have a
doctor and hospital bill?
WANT TO BE FAIR.
Answer-No. 1t is more upright
and honest to pay the legitimate
debts of your own family than the
illegitimate debts of your hus-
bands family. Only extremely
selfish and inconsiderate people
would impose such a burden on
others. In indulging them you
not only deprive yourselves of act
ual necessities, but you encourage
obnoxious traits in them which
will get them into trouble sooner
or later.
The thing for you to do is to
point out what you have told me
and firmly explain that you are
not eXtravagant yourselves and
can not afford to indulge others in
extravaganza. They will think
you hard and cruel, no doubt, but
they will respect you more than
if you let yourself be an easy
mark.
1t is much easier to say yes than
no to the requests of ones family.
If they were in want you would be
justified in self denial for their
sake, but as it is their request is
an imposition and your refusal a
mark of strength of character.
