Missus Carey's Surprise

We had sQuawk-fest in here the other night
about how us Americans oommercialize all our

caught Testers fancy, an he started to get that

He probably violated some child-labor laws
an maybe engaged in some unfair practices
such as seIlin' me back some of my own pop
bottles. But by last week he went over the top
with 81 80 in assorted kinds of cash.
An then terrible crisis happened. Lester
bought the curlin iron an took it home an hid It,
Next day Missus Carey got to readin' about the
new hair styles an went down an had short bob!
She couldn't understand why Lester didn't
approve. He couldn't eat no dinner an went OF
to his room an maybe he cried little don't
know But he didn't give up.
AFTER school couple O days Later he sold the
curlin' iron to Jake Bulls for $3.50 because Jake
wanted to give it to his wife.
Lester put the price at $3.50 because now he
needed $261 an he only had the curlin' iron an
a penny. There was nylon-bristle hanbrush in
Doc Foulkes drugstore at that price.
The brush is now in Lester's closet all wrapped
up ready to give to his Nom this Sunday mornin'.
Does your Nom need new hairbrush?"

her all the bad luck in the world.
He had been properly sorry for
his condition the evening she
came calling, and she had been
suitably gay and forgiving and
even accepted his invitation to go
dining and dancing. But then
her mood had changed-changed

floor. Having no way of know

He was uncomfortable when

he was slightly dizzy, as well.
Made less inhibited by the alco-

squeezed it gently.

ever seen you look"
"Skip it, my pet"

bumped into his chair. LOOK

He sighed. The noise in the

Sally mentioned delicately. She

"Dronda Moore married"
Helen kept murmuring to her
self, half in wonder. 'Dronda

She hadn't believed sister Jen-

DE answer to the telegram she

left no room for doubt.
"Of course brenda is married.

To tell Jimmy or not to tell

For if Jimmy stopped paying
Dronda court would he start WOO

| Polio Victim Ends
| l6,OOO-MiIe Tour
In Wheel Chair
BY the Assoeioted Press

MIAMI, Fla, Nov. 30.--Wesley
Engquist, 26-year-old infantile pa
ralysis victim, relaxed in the Florida
sunshine today after completing a
5, 5,soo-mile sightseeing tour in a
wheel chair via oregon and Cali
fornia to Miami.
Mr.. Engquist, who set out from his
home town of Fremont, Nebr., on
August Is. said during his cross
country trek he was given 81 rides
by friendly truck drivers who
pushed his .halloon-tire wheel chair
into the back of their vehicles.
An infantile paralysis victim for
16 years, Mr.. Engquist decided in
1943 If he was to be confined to a
wheel chair all of his life, he would
satisfy his wanderlust anyway-in
the wheel chair.
His first long-distance trip was
from Fremont to Dallas, Tex, some
1900 miles, of which, he said, he
wheeled over TOO miles.
Although he travelled some 5000
miles on this 44-day jaunt, he said
he actually travelled only about $40
miles by muscle power"
He said he planned to spend a
month or so" in Miami and then
would head for New York.

District Heads 10 Seek
|S11,50O Added Fund
For Veterans Center

. The Commissioners are expected
to ask the new Congress for a $12,50Q
supplemental appropriation to
finance the Veterans Service Center
through the closing months Of this
fiscal year.
Engineer Commissioner Gordon r.
Young, who superyises the center,
said last night he would recommend
the deficiency fund to his colleagues
and that it probably would be in
cluded in the first such measure
to go to the new Congress.
Some $500 is needed to finance
the war-housing activities of the
center. These activities are now
being carried on by reduced staff
with Federal funds from the Ma
tional Housing Agency which will
last until March 1. These funds
would have expired today If per-
sonnel cuts had not been made.
BY agreement with the Federal
agency last Summer, the. Commits
sioners took over operation of the
housing program and agreed to fur
nish half the money. To date,
however, only $4,000 in Federal
money is being used and no Dis
trict funds have even been appro-
'priated.
Gen. Young said he did not feel
obligated to equal the amount of
money put up by the Federal agency,
since the curtailed staff was ac-
complishing the work.
About $4,000 of the deficiency ap-
preparation will go to the other ac-
tivities of the center, according to
Director Waldron E. Leonard.
Mr.. Leonard said the Commits
sioners have approved the change
in name of the center from vet
erans' Information Center" to Vet
erans' Service Center" The change
was recommended recently by the
Commissioners Advisory Committee
on the center.
