Turkey Decline

Considering the growth of the
human population, turkey growers
of today still have a considerable
way to 60 before they catch up
with the turkey growers back in
the 1800S, a report of the Bureau
Of Agricultural Economics shows.
For example, back in 1890 turkey
growers raised enough turkeys so
that every five people could have
had one turkey. In 1896, the year
of the big crop Of turkeys, growers
provided only enough to go around
at the rate Of one turkey to every
six persons.

WEST CURETON, who plays
w a beautiful, lifting piano,
did just that. Rugs were thrown
back and dancing began, and
Nancy Watson wished devout-
edly that her frock had been
short instead of boasting a trail
ing train. Susan Kintner didn't
worry, because her gown Of
black crepe, topped by q gold
lame blouse, was just floor
length and cut intriguingly up
the front, to give freedom for
dancing.
DICHARD MONTGOMERY
~ was busy envying people
who were fat, because he has q
slim figure that any femme
would work months to duplicate
for herself, and Helen Barry
and Jose Cammacho were too
comfortable on a couch to even
make an attempt at dancing.
Walter Watson, who is very
sensible, kept opening the front
door, peeking out and then go
ing out in overcoat, plus .
broom, to keep the walkway
clear of snow. That should have
warned us, but nothing ever
does!
AT 1870 we decided to go
IA home, on account of making
an early train out of Washing
ton next day. Never were we
more mistaken about going
home! Three taxi companies
were called. The answer was
always the same: "No cabs"
Finally we called the May
flower and Harry, and after Is
minutes he called back to say
he was sending a taxi for us.
It got there, and the fact that
he had worked a miracle DID
occur to us. Patricia, West Cure
ton, J. Bonaparte johnson, Dun
can Clark and ourself practi-
cally fell into this taxi with JOY.
That was as far as we got.
Helene, Helen, Jose and Ber-
Jose's coupe just five minutes
before and were now marooned
in q snowdrift, right in front
of our cab. They called for
help. and the men in our taxi
