Unless these New Deal Democrats
Stop pulling bureaus out of hats,
I fear that soon we'll have to get
A new and larger alphabet.
If it's not AAA, NEG, PWA, Hole,
It's IVA, FEHC, MIRA, or FHLB,
MIC, FCIC and even CCC.
Now what this country needs today
Is less and less of NRA,
B U N K and E T c.,
But more and more of c. o. D.
For in the sweet, sweet by and by
Somebody has to P A Y
For all this "jack" the U. S. A.
Is handing out free today.
Our star of hope is growing dim;
Well soon be on the B u M
Well struggle, starve and break our
necks
To meet the future T A x.
Unless l make an N. G. guess
It's time to sound an S. o. S.,
And stop this flood of I. o. U.
And l mean to stop it P. D. @.
SO 1 beseech you, F. D. R.,
Don't stretch the alphabet too far;
Ny shirt is gone; now, mister, please,
Don't take away my B. V. DIS.
l had to say B. V. DIS, even though
I wear shirts and shorts. But try and
get that to rhyme with anything.

A letter arrived this week from down
Swanton way, which relieves me of
several inches of column writing. The
writer says:
"Dear Scoop:-You speak of taking
rest and I realize there is nothing
like letter from an old friend to
cheer man up when he is tired, low
spirited, or possibly just a little bit
grouchy, as most of US are after be-
ing caught right in the middle of this
deplorable depression or administra-
ton, or whatever the fuss is about.
PERSONALLY, believe that what you
really need is relief, but then I sup
pose you are still willing to work for
your living and leave the relief all to
your grandchildren who will get plenty
of it when the bill is paid.
"But," he continues, "let US talk
about something else. Have you no.
ticed the terrible influx of yellow bel
lies and sapsuckers that have invaded
our land? 1t seems these uncanny
birds are about to swamp all other
American brides. AS the Red, White
and Blue birds scratch busily for
their own, those hungry marauders
are always on hand to pick up all the
nice juicy worms. Thus the finder and
owner of the morsel is forced to neg
lect his own nest and in many cases
60 on half rations in order to provide
good easy living for his fat, loafng
cousins.
at seems likely these hordes will
continue to increase for at least an
other year and a half at which time
it is rumored they will be expected to
assemble to rebuild the nest of the
powerful great boss eagle.
at does seem strange that such a
nest should be built in the fall instead
of in the spring, but it has been learn
ed from experience that such an army
of idlers would be even more idle in
warm weather."
If you don't agree with this, don't
blame me. Just write to the gentle
man from Swanton. He's probably
saving up more words to use in case
of emergency.
