Good evening.
THE SOCIAL SEASON is ON
BY TIE MAN IN THE TOWER

The social season is on for fair,
The teas the dinners the night clubs glare.
Celebrities appear at openings OF note
Talk is of war and how to vote.
Mrs. Masterbilt will continue her salons exclusive
Where conversation will be smart but not ABUSIVE
The outdoor crowd over the hard fields VIII crunch
Following the hounds, then home for brunch
Volunteers will work on bandages and knlttln,
Committees will report on Bundles for Britain,
Others concerned over little Finland still
viii give their services and work with will.
Farewell parties will be in order for the boys at nome
Who too, will eventually roam.
New entertainers will feature a tavorlte CLUB,
The visiting Englshman will call a bar pub
Cover charges will continue to be the style
And a pain in the neck for the rank and file.
The social season is on full swing,
New tunes new folks, new everything!

Indianapolis, Ind, October H.
In case you didn't know, John
zahnd, of indianapolis, is running
for President.
While his opponents exchange
oratorical blasts up and down the
nation, Zahnd, who is the Green
back Party candidate, stays
quietly at home and tends his gar
den.
Mr.. zahnd isn't much excited by
the approach of the election, but
then he's an old hand at elections.
For this is the fifth campaign hes
been through.
Confidentially, he doesn't think
there's any great likelihood of his
being elected.

LOOKS TOWARD
1912 ELECTION

When he sells a lot, Mr.. zahnd
charges no interest for the first
three years. For the key to
the Greenback Party's platform is
that "usury" is at the root of CAPT
talism'S ills. The party would
abolish interest and substitute
government issuance of currency,
or greenbacks, for borrowing.
The party was formed in 1874,
changed names several times, and
was reorganized in its present form
in 1918.
Already John Zahnd is looking
to the 1942 congressional election.
Were mainly interested in get
ting our theories put into prac-
tice," he says, mot just in getting
into office ourselves. The best way
to do that is through the election
of congressman who believe in up
holding the Constitution. For that
reason, we intend to make pretty
strong campaign in the congressional
elections two years from now"
To aid in that campaign, the
party plans to start a national
weekly newspaper on January l,
with offices in Chicago.
