Fraud Discovered in Georgia Bank Failure
Additional news on the reason for the failing of the rich Wage Earners Savings Bank of Savannah, Georgia, reaches the "Tattler" through reliable sources. The Bank failed as we told in a previous issue, for $900,000, and a story was circulated that shortly one of the Bank Directors would be quizzed over a certain 'shady' Realty transaction.. A. B. Mobley, State Superintendent of Banks, has filed a suit in equity in the Superior Court against L. E. Williams, President of the Bank seeking to set aside certain realty transactions on the ground of fraud. It is alleged by the State superintendent that certain realty was transferred by Williams to the other defendants for $10 on March 19, 1928 after the Bank failed.
Williams is under $2,000 bond on a charge of fraudulent Bank insolvency and is defendant with other directors of the bank in a suit for recovery of $227,000.
New York Branch Urban League Plans Big Extension
In order to better serve the community, the New York Urban League has contracted to purchase an additional building at 206 West 136th Street, adjoining its present headquarters. This action has been taken because of the pressure brought upon the organization for more space. In an interview, James H. Hubert, executive secretary, said: "Additional quarters are needed for the staff of the Urban League and other workers soon to be engaged. These include Girl Scout Organizer and workers in the Women's Court and among the young men and boys of the Tombs.
The annual report of the league shows that over eighty-five different clubs held 1,465 evening meetings in the building last year with an approximate attendance of over 30,000. Employees of the league and co-ordinating agencies now number over fifty.
The league moved into its present quarters only two years ago, when it was forced to purchase and rebuild to suit the needs of its increasing activities. So generous was the public response, that the entire amount (over $60,000) was subscribed by members and friends of the organization, with substantial contributions from the people of Harlem. It is said that the Urban League is the most used of any public building in Harlem.
Victory Life Realizes Ambition

TATTLER
One of America's Outstanding Writers, Offers an Arugment for Better Pay and Fairer Treatment-An Instance of a White Writer Employing His Facile Pen as One Would Expect of a Race Critic.
The politicians are tuning up for the big show. Republican cohorts are assembling in Kansas City to put on their great elephant act and shortly afterward the Democratic tribesmen will gather in Houston to see the world's prize donkey do his stuff. We believe it is already conceded by astute showmen that the Houston folks are in line for the better circus. The Republicans are master entertainers but they work with too much finesse to inspire the enthusiasm of the masses. The democrats, on the other hand, have a corps of hurly-burly harlequins who can beat the world at cutting up side-splitting capers.
Regardless of the ultimate wisdom or folly of the Houston convention, such fellows as Slippery Simmons of North Carolina, the Hell-fire boys of Virginia, Glass and Swanson, and Heflin, the Hellion, who eats raw Catholics and chaws up the bones of barbecued Negroes—these and a host of minor clowns such as Mumbling McAdoo and Gnat's-eye Jim Reed are sure-fire comedians who are bound to cause the rupture of numerous radio sets and belly buttons with their wild and unorthodox antics. Indeed, Gnat's-eye Reed's act alone is enough to make the show a corker. Reed, if you fail to remember, is the sleight of hand maestro who with a mere wave of his magic wand can make the tar-bucket and shotgun corruption of the South look like nothing at all while enlarging the hand-out graft of the North to the size of a mountain. You can rely on him to lead the forces of righteousness in their holy crusade against wicked Tammany.
While the hill billys are putting on their show for the diversion of the yokelry and the applauding pastors of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, the responsible leaders of the party will attend to the serious business of selecting a capable man for standard bearer. We hope their selection is a wise one. This is a year when the Democrats, if they use some human intelligence, have a chance to win. Therefore, we hope they will pick a civilized man to head the ticket. Our first choice, is our own Governor Smith. We feel that he is the ablest as well as the most dynamic man in the party. Next to him we like Governor Ritchie of Maryland and we could support Byrd of Virginia without much misgiving. Barring those three there is no other Democrat we would feel safe with as the head of the Nation at this time and unless one of them obtains the nomination we will be forced to take our chances with a Republican.
The Pullman Company is a panhandler. Some federal police officer should take away the tin cup from this corporation and confiscate its pencils.
The organization is actually in want. Not long ago the price of shares rose to a point where it seemed best to give each holder two for one, and even after this division a dividend of $4 has been maintained. And from what source is that dividend derived?
To some extent from your quarters and my dimes given to the porter in return for service rendered. Whenever small silver passes one of the directors should be on hand to take a bow and say, "Thank you, boss."
In a very real way the company shares in all gratituities. It does not prentend to give its colored employes a living wage. The average porter's pay is about $72.50 a month. He has to pay for his meals, brushes, shoe polish, uniforms and various odds and ends. All of which amounts to about $33 a month. leaving him the magnificent total of $49.50. or little more than $10 a week.
"Hello, Sucker!"
But the company banks on the fact that the travelling
public is generous. It leaves it up to us to maintain its men in some form of living approaching decency. Very possibly William Green, president of the American Federation of Labor, was right in advising the porters against an immediate strike. No man is more deserving of public sympathy and support, but there are factors in the way. For so long a time the porter has been a subject of vaudeville jokes and magazine wheezes that the legend of his fabulous wealth is rooted in general consciousness. We think of him as one who rolls in wealth when he comes home to Harlem.
Undoubtedly it is true that a few porters have profited handsomely. A good living can be made on the crack trains during the rush seasons. But it is well to remember
(Reprinted from N. Y. Evening Telegram, June 11th)
The Big Show Begins
The Big Show Begins
that these lucrative jobs are few and that even the best of them are subject to seasonal changes. On an average a porter makes less than $15 a week from tips, which, added to the company's $10 amounts to very little. After his expenses have been deducted it will be seen that we pay a greater part of the porter's salary than the Pullman Company cares to shoulder. In addition his hours are long and irregular and his living condi-
The Big Show Begins
Medicians are tuning up for the big show, assembling in Kansas City to put on a show and shortly afterward the Democrat in Houston to see the world’s prize. I believe it is already conceded by as Houston folks are in line for the better. We are master entertainers but they will need to inspire the enthusiasm of the crowd on the other hand, have a corps of husky men beat the world at cutting up side-sweeps of the ultimate wisdom or folly of such fellows as Slippery Simmons of New Yorks of Virginia, Glass and Swanson, who eats raw Catholics and chaws up legroes—these and a host of minor ones. We bound to cause the rupture of numerous buttons with their wild and unorthodox eye Reed’s act alone is enough to make him, if you fail to remember, the saint with a mere wave of his magic wand. And shotgun corruption of the South looms enlarging the hand-out graft of the North. You can rely on him to lead us in their holy crusade against wicked hill billys are putting on their show, mockery and the applauding pastors of Church, South, the responsible leaders to the serious business of selecting a dearer. We hope their selection is a win when the Democrats, if they use some of their chance to win. Therefore, we hope we can head the ticket. Our first choice is truth. We feel that he is the ablest man in the party. Next to him we are Maryland and we could support Byrd of giving.

tions very bad. Anybody who is interested to know just how bad might well read Claude McKay's fine novel. "Home to Harlem". Mr. McKay may have indulged in some fictional license, but certainly his story sounds true.
Moreover, every traveller can see for himself that whatever sleep a porter gets on a night run is sure to be broken. It is only the excessive American sense of humor which makes him a comic figure.
His guardian, the travelling public, is not always kind. Nobody likes to be "Georged" night and day for $25 a week. We are at our very worst in dealing with the porter. He is required to display a constantly smiling countenance in the face of continual association with a group of people who are for the most part cranky and exacting.
A good porter must be among the world's great diplomats, for often he has to make nice adjustments between passengers who want the window up and those who insist that it should be down. If the train is late the porter is the one who takes the blame. He is even compelled on occasion to accept responsibility for the climate. Obviously man's evil nature is at its very peak at the moment when he is aroused from slumber. Par-
ticularly if he is still drowsy from a deep subconscious revolt against awakening. The porter can't be blamed for the fact that the train is just about to pull into the yards. He can't be, but he is.
Where Do We We Come In?
In every labor dispute there are three parties and one of them gets scant attention. But in the Pullman situation the public stake is palpable. Since we have been called upon to shoulder directly a large proportion of the payroll we have a right to be heard in any conference. So far the Pullman Company has manifested no desire to let us in on its affairs. Indeed, through all its history this has been one of the most arrogant of corporations. Even now, when a strike is still in sight, the Pull-
man Company acts as if the matter were just a private issue. Certainly, I have not seen in a long time any public presentation of its case. Such statements as come out from the company are brief and confident.
Neglecting the issue, the Pullman spokesmen generally are content to declare that if the porters walk out they can easily replace them. But what then? Seemingly the company assumes that if it loads up its cars with strikebreakers we will continue to help it into profits by maintaining a liberal policy of tipping. Often the public is powerless to do much in any strike, no matter how much it may sympathize with the side of labor. But in a Pullman dispute we could function very effectively. If there

Little Ruby Davis Missing From Home
Ruby Davis, age six years, light brownskin of complexion, about four feet tall, weighing in the neighborhood of 45 pounds, with long black hair is missing from her home----2619 8th Avenue.
When the child was last seen, she was wearing a blue sweater, two piece rompers grey with red dots, white collar and front, black shoes and stockings. She is easily identified by two moles on her face, one on the right side of her lip and one on the left cheek. A thorough search of her former home by detectives Webber, Moore, Gravey, and Hunter of the 16th squad detectives was made, but the child was to be found nowhere. Sarah Herrell, of 281 Edgecombe Avenue who was last seen with the child in front of Foster-Mother's home, was arrested. The child's foster mother is Mrs. Martha Davis of 2619 Eighth Avenue. We appeal to all residents of Harlem to be on the lookout for a child who answers this description. and to notify the station house immediately.
Dr. Holloway Answers Charges of Wife
Chicago still discusses the divorce claims of pretty Mrs. Cleo Holloway, against her prominent doctor-husband, I. H. Holloway. Declaring that his wife's bill for divorce filed against him last week is a frameup and a plot to injure his reputation and gain control of his property, Dr. I. H. Holloway, prominent Chicago physician, issued a statement Tuesday flatly denying all the charges made against him by his spouse, Mrs. Cleo Dickerson Holloway, a major figure in musical and social circles.
"The bill for divorce filed against me by my wife, Mrs. Cleo Holloway, is a frameup," declared Dr. Holloway. "Mrs. Holloway charges me with repeated cruelty and she knows that she has no real grounds on which to do this. Her real motive is to obtain my property and to degrade my high reputation as a good citizen and a high class physician and surgeon," Dr. Holloway continued.
DEFENDS DAUGHTER
Dr. Holloway says that his daughter, Bertha Holloway, had nothing at all to do with the controversy between him and his wife. He asserted strongly that she is merely used as a dupe by Mrs. Holloway to further her schemes for getting control of the valuable property which he owns.
"I have always conducted myself as a law abiding husband giving and caring for my wife to the best of my ability," he says. "I have furnished her with every luxury imaginable, from an elaborately furnished home at 4316 South Parkway with a maid, cook, janitor and garage service, to a private touring car with a complete wardrobe and excessive leisure for enjoyment."

As would be expected of a gentleman
who maintains au apartment, house-

Walker who Knows his flats and sharps
were on hand, and how.
As one gentleman put it, the food
Was appurently delicious and plenti-
ful but the drinks were equally as
good; so being unrestricted, he con-
tented himself with the latter. In
short it was a Jam up party and wor-
thy of the Great Jules.

A Lincoln Park Estates Purchaser.Writes
Editor of THE TATTLER.
Dear Sir:—It is with great pleasure and delight that I am writing you a few lines to let you know how mother and I are so pleased with the four lots we bought at Lincoln Park Estates on Long Isl and. We were a little skeptical after reading an article in your paper a few weeks ago in regard to Lincoln Park, as we thought it was greatly exaggerated until last Sunday, when mother and I went down in one of the buses of the Lincoln Park Estates ,and we must say that we found the property just as it was represented in your columns. I cannot begin to explain how beautiful this land is and only three-quarters of a mile from the Great South Bay, a beautiful bathing beach. The roads on the Lincoln Park Estates are wide and spacious, and you would be surprised to see the many new roads and streets that are being cut through the property. I want to thank THE TATTLER for being the means by which I became acquainted with Lincoln Park Estates and the beautiful land it is selling. We purchased four lots, 100x100 feet and we expect to build a beautiful bungalow on our land within thirty days. The surroundings of this property are gorgeous and we are so delighted with it that we are having our many friends do as we did. We have been looking for a long time in New Jersey and Connecticut for a piece of land to build on, but saw nothing that could compare with this land. Thirty feet above the sea level, high and dry. I feel sure that if some of the readers of your magazine would make the trip to Lincoln Park, they will be as enthused as we are.
MRS. DAVID DONALD,
Corona, Long Island.
YONKERS, by the great CURTIES RUTH.
ONE of the early June weddings of the season and the most picturesque took place Thursday evening, June 7, 1928, when Miss Ethel Garrison, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James V. Garrison, was married to Charles Jackson of Mt. Vernon, N. Y., at 6:30 o'clock, at the home of the bride, 9 Ludlow Street, Yonkers, N. Y.
Rev. S. W. Smith, pastor of the Messiah Baptist Church, Ashburton Place, officiated at the ceremony. Promptly at 6:30 o'clock, Miss Mae Lee sang "Until," by Wilfrid Sanderson, accompanied on the piano by Mr. Lance Saunders, organist of the Messiah Baptist Church.
The bride was attended by her sister, Mrs. Cornelia Chellis, the matron of honor, and Mr. Robert Jackson, brother of the groom, the best man. To strains of the Lohengrin's bridal chorus, descended Mrs. Chellis and the bride followed on the arm of her father to meet Mr. Jackson under the arbor so beautifully decorated by R. T. Proderick. It included a handmade wedding bell, which hung from the ceiling. Palm leaves and ferns also added to its beauty.
The bride was beautifully dressed in white taffeta and French lace with a taffeta bow on the side, bouffant style. Her veil was of silk French lace, Duchess style. She wore white satin slippers and carried a bouquet of white roses and sweet peas with streamers.
The matron of honor wore a canary georgette dress of bouffant style, with satin slippers to match, and a canary picture hat. She carried a bouquet of pink tea roses and yellow dragons. The mother of the bride wore a peach georgette dress with a pink rose on her shoulder. The mother of the groom. Mrs. Jackson, wore a flowered chiffon dress.
A shower of telegrams were extended and congratulations were received. The wedding reception immediately followed. About 300 persons or guests gathered to witness the wedding. Mr. Jesse Jones was the caterer in charge.
Mr. and Mrs. Charles Jackson
left for Atlantic City, where they will spend their honeymoon and on their return they will reside in Yonkers. The bride received many expensive and beautiful gifts.
Heywood Broun's Article on Pullman Porters
were a general agreement among travellers not to tip the outlaw workers during a strike we could soon force the company to pay through the nose or meet the demand of its former emplovers.
That would be an entirely reasonable thing for us to do. Aside from ethical considerations and a general belief in the rightfulness of collective bargaining, we would be serving self-interest. The Pulman porters want to have tipping abolished. They want an increase in wages from $72.50 a month to $150. Also they are asking a radical reduction in working hours. But this should also be to our advantage. Upon the few occasions when I've met a porter who was slow and surely there was every reason to believe that he had come by his grouch most honestly through loss of sleep and heavy labor.
An Intangible Factor
The attitude of the Pullman porters is not based wholly upon purely economic considerations. They want, among other things, their honor. it seems to them that a man is degraded if he must subsist upon guaranties. This is, of course, an understandable point of view. I am not much afflicted with it. At least no employer has ever made me feel insulted by offering bonuses and other favors. Still, I can fancy conditions against which I would rebel. If columnists worked under the same conditions s Pullman porters the managing editor would say, "Here you, Bob, Frank, Heywood and Edward, we intend to pay you very little. Just a nominal sum to insure loyalty to the paper. But we will let you keep all the stamps sent in by contributors, and if any reader likes your work and mails a dime or nickel that you can have for your very own."
I don't think I'd like that. Even the wolf at the door would object
At such times as the Pullman Company makes any statement concerning its position it asserts that the right of collective bargaining has been recognized and that the porters have a union which is wholly satisfied with existing conditions. But this refers to a company union, and a company union is always a device by which the employer gives the worker the illusion of rights without any power to enforce them. Possibly the porters would be wise to wait a little longer, but they have already been very patient.
The demand for the abolition of the tipping system is not a new thing. This has gone on for several years. All I can say is that here is one member of the travelling public who will say "Good luck" to them whenever they feel that there is no longer any chance of arbitration. They carried heavy bundles for you and me and never broke a bottle. It's about time we were making some effective return. I'm tired of tipping the Pullman Company.

THE LAFAYETTE Theatre has Broadway bill this week. That is, Clarence Robinson is presenting a number of celebrities from Miller and Lyles, Keep Shufflin', which opened at Daly's Theatre and then played a few weeks at the Eltinge Theatre at 42nd Street. Keep Shufflin' failed to shuffle very long. In fact, it failed to do a number of things aside from Shufflin'. It failed, fell far short of the mark and that's that.
But the Keep Shufflin' Players who came to the Lafayette last Monday were highly keyed up. They were full of pep and snapped to their work with a zest that was pleasing
The comedy was handled by Mossars, George Williams and McLane. The musical numbers were nicely taken care of by Miss Margaret Lee and George Randol. As for the dancing. well. "Scrappy" Jones and the madam, Evelyn Keyes certainly do their share toward the success of the offering. Then there's Dirkson and Cassidy, "Honey" Brown of the famous toes and an Ofay team, the Rodney's who burn the boards up.
And last but not least, ten fast claiting maids, bewitching little cherries step about and how, to the tanterlizing strains of "Fess' Williams former Savoy Orchestra. The scenery and settings are beau-

THE LINCOLN offers a mediocre production this week. Andrew Tribble of the "Original Ophelia Show", saves the offering from a complete crash. John Mason and Crackshot are at times funny, and again they pull off jokes that the old gray mare heard when she was a colt. Louis Dandridge, formerly of Drake and Walker, gives a parody of old songs that smacks of originality. His technique at the piano is far better than the melody of his voice.
Edna Taylor—a new comer—rings and dances, rather excelling in the latter. Jimmie Stewart again pleases the audience with the metallic staccato of his feet. This boy is a comer in the dancing field.
Jimmie Marshal does real well with the material in hand, but George Greene continues to grow monotonous with his overacting.
We missed one of the old faces in the chorus and noticed one or two new ones. The chorus improves with weeks, and especially we pleased with Ruby Venc-
sch. Naxle and Rosa Henderson are to be commended for their efforts, but the entire production can be greatly improved. The film for the last half of the week is "Secret Hour", starring Pola Negri.
* * *
AT THE ALHAMBRA this week we journey across the sea and sojourn on the "Shores of Honoulu" with Sandy Burns, Apus Brooks Daisy Wright, and George Wiltshire. There we find Mable Riddly and Amanda Brooks, and the Alhambra Girls in a bevy of music fun and beauty, ruled by Ted Blackman as Prince Ti Lee.
Sandy and Lee have stolen the money and passports of Daisy's father and absconded to this island of delight. Daisy and George with Apus find much to amuse the audience in their search for the rogues.
The Alhambra chorus continues to delight the dubious tickle the sorrowful, and rest the weary. For snap, untiring and unceasing of forts to please, this chorus is the best in town.
The Drama Players offer "Hell's Kitchen", a short sketch of life in the neighborhood of that name Edward Thompson as "Tip", west side gangster, has a brother who has been framed for murder by "Fly" Grogan, and "Hop" Hopkins, played by Lawrence Criner and George Wiltshire. Patricia, the daughter of "Pa" and "Ma" Bradley, played by Fannia Laine is in love with Tip Alice Gorgas as Ruth Carrol is also in love with him. She frames a marriage to him for herself, promising to save his kid brother, "for the favor". "Sleepy" Magee, acted by Arthur Ray is the best friend of Tip and saves him in the end. For the movie we have Bert Lyttell in "Obey the Law". There is an age old Pathe comedy featuring Bebe Daniel Snub Pollard, and Harold Lloyd in "Swat the Cook.

Our Olympic Contribution--Blanchard and
Ted Carroll--“Charleston” The Great
N°” THAT DEHART IIUBBARD, peer of all modern broad jumpers,
has elected to limber up his priceless limbs, folks are discussing
the chances of our athletes and other foreign potential Olympians of
color, like nobody’s business.
The classic games that will be held this year at Amsterdam,
Holland next month, will prove to the world in a very definite manner
whether “America,” who has always led the way in athletics, will be
able to maintain her position against the rapid advance since the Ant-
werp games of Germany, England, Finland and Sweden.
She may reasonably count on the brilliant Colored star adding five
points to her total, but the rest of the field, and remember we are going
over this proposition very level headed, may get the surprise of their
gay young lives from the braw laddies who train on black bread and
dried: fish.
Aside from the world’s record holder in the running broad jump,
any number of Colored athletes will enter the tryout lists all over the
eountry. This correspondent will be mighty happy if four native-born
Americans of African descent make the grade, and frankly we hardly
expect to see two—for many are called but few are chosen, and especially
is this true in such contests, where men strive mightily for the honor
of wearing the laurel wreath of victory. o%
Wesley Foster, the lad from Washington State University, who
shattered Charlie Paddock’s world’s 175-yard dash record; Charlie Major
of St. Bonaventure College, Butler of Geneva, Gus Moore of Pittsburgh
U., will be the ones to make the team if there is to be another Colored
face in there aside from Hubbard's, whose points will be accounted on
Uncle Sam’s side of the ledger. Cator will oppose Hubbard for Haiti,
and our own Phil Edwards will be “agin” us when he takes the mark
against the temperamental Lioyd Hahn and others. “Slim” Booker,
all-around ace and track captain of Virginia U., is another potential.

success as a sprinter to the efficient coaching of that former 100-y
Metropolitan champion, Eddie (“Bunk”) Jones.
Ted Carroll, demon sports cartoonist, who rates on a par with
best in his line, which is saying plenty, if you understand your
Jong, is a sprinter of parts himself. This elongated young fellow
capable of picking them up and laying them down front forward, as
one and only “Bo-Jangles” does his backward stunt.
Dehizo and Oscar Charleston
Grow me any two better ball players in the National and American
Leagues than Martin Dehigo and Oscar Charleston and wel’ll he
candid enough to admit our ignorance on the subject.
The more we discuss baseball, and the more we see of fellows like
Andy Cohen, Cissell, the new $123,000 shortstop of the White Sox,
Kress of the St. Louis Browns, and other new phenoms who just broke
in this current season; the more we deplore the “Unwritten Law” that
prevents Colored ball stars from pastiming on big time.
If the above-mentioned National and American League “finds”
are drafted into service and are making good, what would a scout’s
service to a club be worth if he was able to bring in real honest-to-
goodness ball players like Jap Washington, Bizz Mackey, Vie Harris,
and a score or more who are big league players in everything but
COLOR.
These league players appear against the Colored cracks in post-
season games and on barnstorming jaunts around the country, and
nobody has ever heard of anyone being killed or lynched any more than
such things will occur in the case of the Jewish players who have heen
discriminated against in a smaller way for “steen” years. Come on,
Somebody, trot out a high class Colored star in the “BIG LEAGUES,”
and see if he doesn’t act as the sparkplug to the entire team.
“Yankee”
BA RUTH of Miller Huggin’s juggernaut, who are making a joke
out of the American League baseball race, is a mighty swatsmith,
but here’s one for the book. Out Pittsburgh way, Cumberland Posey,
once rated premier basketball player of the race, has a hustling, fight-
ing, brainy club, known as the “Homestead Grays.”
Johnny Beckwith, a member of this ensemble, recently hit five home
runs in one afternoon. Up to last week's batting listing, Beckwith had
collared 24 home run clouts to his credit, which places him ahead of |
the mighty ‘Baby’ of the Ruppert forces.
Hitting five homers even against schoolboy pitching is a perform-
ance to rave over, and when one is called upon to hit against twirlers
who are slightly below major league efficiency and is able to tear the |
cover off the ball as in the case of Beckwith; its high time people were |
talking about it. /
Lefty Williams and the ancient mariner—Joe Willams— are cut-
ting that spheroid loose like a Kansas cyclone. “Lefty” has won twelve
games this season with nary a defeat chalked up again him; while the
old Lincoln Giants idol has tallied 11 victories against one loss. That's |
pitching baseball in any man’s league, and we have always contended |
that our boys would do far better with a team like Frank Chanco's |
old Cubs, and the Athletics of Home Run Baker's era acting as the |
supporting cast. We figure the loss in dollars and cents to Colored |
stars who are barred by Baseball's supreme unwritten law at close |
‘'§5,000,000—and the Statue of Liberty still beckons down the bay.

I wonder who is to blame. Have been out of town every week
successfully business. Not being able to travel and to write at the
time, you say that you missed me. May I thank I, Swance who
broadcasting from this station for me during my absence?
I am not meching to change the conversation, but I feel that I should
know the thing. Whether I have been drugged through the mill
through the last six weeks or not, matters! But, I have been working
through my days a week. Please do not believe Whig-Whag Tales,
I thank you.
