PICKLE FANNY
BIZ THE Man IN THE TOWER

Fanny Is frightfully hckle,
This you can't deny,
You couldn't count her eScapadeS
No matter how much you try.
From the time she was sixteen
She's been busy making passes,
She hardly knows lad a week
When they're thick as moasSes.
First she was collegiate,
Didn't find youth bore,
For several weeks or so
She dangled her sophomore
Eventually she dropped him cold.
Said ne was too light Joker,
20 then she looked about for while
Until she met a broker.
This affair petered out,
Next she annexed a doctor, T..
But when ONCE hours interviewed,
She hooked an erudite proctor.
Then Fanny went nautical,
Was rushed for bit by a sailor,
But soon tired Of him too,
He was no Robert Taylor.
Tickle Fanny's conquests would I'LL a book,
For since the time that she began,
Her motto's been first and always,
Go out and get your man.

Clerk A. E. Chaffee of the House of
Representatives.
Reading Clerk Chaffee is a compe-
tent elocutionist. He did a good job
in its way. He enunciated clearly, was
duly respectful of all punctuation
marks, but it was obvious that all he
was doing was to follow copy" There
was not any inspiration in his per-
Torrance.
Personality Lacking.
After the ceremony was over the
first person l asked, What did you
think of it?' was an ardent New
Dealer, prominent member Of the
little cabinet"-that is to say, a first
assistant secretary.
The words were all right" he an
swered, in disappointed tone, "but
the presidential voice was lacking"
That was it. Congress (and, l be-
lieve, the whole country, over the
radio) had been waiting breathlessly
to be spcll-bound by that message. AS
delivered Ky Reading Clerk Chaffee, it
fell as an anti-climax. And it did
not go out over the radio.
Non-Appearance Puzzle.

the message dealt in much but gen.
eralities. Broadly speaking, it was
sound. Even the >"antis" admit that
But did it recommend anything de-
finite? The New Dealers themselves
do not contend that it did so.
If "F. D." had done his own orat-
ing I have no doubt that his remarks
would have been accepted except by
cavillers, as highly constructive.
Now, however, as expressed at sec
ond hand by Reading Clerk Chaffee.

During this same five wears the
state issued $18,553, 600 in new bonds.
while the counties, cities and towns
issued approximately $15,OOO,0OO worth
OF bonds, making a total of So, $685.
UOO IN new bonds issued by the State
and its subdivisions as compared with
the total gross reduction of $50
936. BY subtracting the total of the
new bonds issued from the total re-
duction we find that the state paid
Off $4S,93S,93 more old debt than the
amount of new debt contracted dur
ing these five years, or almost S1O,-
100000 a year.
"This means that North Carolina
has reduced it's crest of debt-that it
reached it five years ago during the
depression-and in spite of the depres-
sion has been maintaining a balanced
budget and reducing it's debt 1t means
that if conditions remain anywhere
near normal for the next ten years
that North Carolina can reduce it's
bonded debt by at least $1OO, 900 600
more, reduce it's taxes for debt SER
vice and still have plenty of revenue
to provide for necessary requirements
and the normal expansion of govern
mental service.
Because Of the sound manner in
which North Cardinals financial af-
fairs have been managed during the
last five years and the fact that it
has consistently maintained a balanc-
ed budget and lived within this bud
get, it is one of the few states which
can now look forward to a steadily
decreasing budget for debt service and
a corresponding decrease in the tax
load for this service. Where many
other states are either increasing
taxes or are going to have to increase
taxes to take care of a steadily in
.creasing bonded debt, North Carolina
has already crossed over the noun
tain and is going town the other
side"
In addition to the formal debt pay
ments by towns and counties, the To-
cal Government Commission estimates
that refunding operations and refi-
nancing plans completed during the
past five years have saved the sub
divisions alone at least $35,OOO,OOO,
which, when added to the $5O,OOO,OOO
of debt retired, makes total of $780,
OO0, 600 worth of debt disposed of dur
ing the past five years.

all know dozens Of mothers who are
doing the same thing: who are wreck
