the young alumni of tbe Univer-
sity of Wiaconsoil, Piper urged:
“Put these public chair warm-
ers in uniform, s0 that the tax-
payers can see for themselves that
they are supporting one out of
every four persons.
We who are still earning an
honest living and tying to strug-
gle through the depression are
the ones who are bearing the
brunt of the tax burden. As fast
as we raise our incomes the gov-
ernment takes it away from us in
ever-increasing taxes.”

IKE MEAT DISAPPEARANCE
To the uninitiated, “Ned Riley’s
feport Enterprises" boldly lettered on
the door of the suite in tbe Royalton
Hotel, might have conjured up a pic-
ture of an indoor golf course, a
riding academy or possibly, a shoot-
ing gallery.
But that is where the uninitiated
would have been wrong. Indeed, one
hasty glimpse into the “office’’ and
he would have fled, convinced he
was in a madhouse. For at the table,
a large burly looking fellow sat be-
fore a cardboard reproduction of a
piano keyboard, gravely following
the notes of the music propped be-
fore him, swaying a little to the
imaginary tune emanating from the
paper keys. Every so often his eyes
sought the book of instructions
opened now to lesson nine.
Smiley flung open the door.
“Either answer that ’phone,*’
he said, “or tear it out of the wall."
“I didn’t hardly hear it, my head
was so full of music,” Blossom an-
swered dreamily. He picked up the
receiver. “Good evening. B. P.
Malone talking." The vagueness
.suddenly left his voice. “Yeah, this
’is Blossom." He listened. “X was

I cant disturb him. He’s busy- Be-
cause he told me—no, not even if

slammed on its hook. “It’s Grandma

“Don’t tell me, let me guess,"

soft spot.” He swung his legs off
the bed. "And will they be grateful
to me?" Standing up, he stretched
luxuriously. "No, sir. And their
mamas will all tell them not to grow ;...
up like Ned Riley.”
“Smart mamas,’’ Granny observed
with a sniff, although her eyes lin-
gered on him affectionately as he
fumbled for a bathrobe and a cig-
arette at the same time.
“I am about to take a shower.
Join me?" Ned asked politely.
There was a loud snort and Gran-
ny slammed her way out the door.
Ten minutes later she and Ned
entered the outer office. “ ’Lo boys,"
Ned said, making for the door, “See
you all later. Stick around."
The telephone rang. Sntllfy
reached for It.

State health insurance therefore

A small wiry individual walked in.
“Well, when can I see him? Eighty-
nine days on a flag-pole and when I
gets down my wife's left me.”
"The boss got her to do it," Smiley
chortled. "Great publicity."
"After being on a flag-pole for
eighty-nine days I don't want pub-
licity. I want my wife."
A pair of Siamese twins edged
.sideways through the door. "We
gotta see Mr. Riley—find out what
state we apply for a marriage license
i.ext."
"Outside," Smiley said, "and take
your sister with you."
Blossom started shoving the men

you to wait until the boss wasn't
busy." He closed the door and re-
* irred to the paper piano.
Smiley wagged his head. “That's
a .veil tune," he Jeered.
"Now comes the hard part." Blos-
som's fingers fairly flew over the
paper board. There was a loud
t anging on the door. "Here's where

He opened the door and Granny
I.eslie, militantly vigorous even at
sixty, advanced on him menacingly.
'.So you hung up on me, did you?"
Blossom backed away. "Look, I
only work here. I take orders like
anybody else.”
"And the orders were that the
boss Is busy?” She moved toward
one of the other doors.
Blossom stood against It. "You
can't go In there," he nrotested.
"Don’t you touch me, you gorilla.
Stand back.” She pushed him away
and entered a darkened bedroom.
Than she snapred on the lights and
glared at tbe figure huddled up
'under the blankets.
"Ned Riley,” Granny said grimly,
"Mona’s in Jail.”
' At this Ned sat up quickly.
"Mona—what for? What happened?
; What'd ah* do? Tell her to keep her
'mouth shut till I get my lawyer—”
“Some traffic jam,” was the Impa-
tient answer. "She got sentenced
to on* day In jail.”
“Oh, ia that ail"" Ned fell back
In obvious relief.
; “Well, what are you going to do
{about It?"
“BMap.” The reply came from be-
neath the blankets again.

Granny’s face softened a little as
they moved along. It had been difit- !
cult raising this daughter of an only I
daughter who had died at birth of
her baby.
Even as a child, Mona had alway
been getting herself into scrapes of
some sort. While never serious, they
had caused Granny many hours of
uncertainty and worry. For Mona's
over-exuberance and robust high
spirits, and above all. her innocent
belief that the green grass and the
sky above were her rightful habitat,
coupled with her almost passionate
contempt for being her way out of
a difficulty, had constantly run her i
afoul of the authorities; onre t."> r.t
