"SANDWICHES" "—Three hams get poked with a fork as Noah (Pappy) Allison tries to keep ahead of a clan of sandwich makers.

NEW YORK, Jan. 16—I was shouting for a short beer to cut the dust the other day when my moonbeam walks in with that arise-ye-womanhood look on her face and says, quote, coldly: “Where is your escort, little man? You look to me 3 like a compulsive guzaler and a menace to civilization “8 and furthermore you are unaccompanied and I do not £38 think we gan serve you here, for fear of corrupting the morals of all the good people everywhere.” I started to render a brief verse about a man’s home is his castle and anytime a man needs a soup can of mait he should get same without conversation from his pearl of inestimable price, and who wins the break around here anyhow. But on closer scrutiny I detect that special legislative light in her good eye so I hold still and here it comes. The older you get, the wiser you ‘get sbout these things. ; 1 see by the papers, shé says, that they got a hifl going now up-in Albany to prevent lone, and perhaps lorn, ladies from walking onto the corner saloon for a small sup of nourishment when the skies are gra, and there is a mountain of dishes in the sink.

Leave the Bars to Men

“I ALSO SEE,” she says, “that over in Jersey they have just passed an ordinance where the women have got to sit.down to drink ‘and leave the bars to.the men. ‘This is nothing but an extension of the persécution we got during the war when a lady had to’ pick up a sailor before she. was allowed in a cafe for & bite of bread and a cup of coffee, and it is-all part of a plot. : It is a plot; she says, to rob us-of our civil rights.

Beg Pardon -

“oY travel across the country to plead for the white man’s way of life, . Adam wasn’t-ramrod straight and tal} like the red "man in the history books.- He was short, a little guy, a little bald and a little fat: Indeed, he was rather a pathetic figure as he shed his worn coat and tiptoed into the Senate committee room. * He begged the committee's pardon for taking its valuablé time. He said, please, that he wanted to make it clear that he hadn't spent five days and nights-sitting up-on a-bus-to-come to Washington to scalp anybody on Capitol Hil. His people had saved their pennies to send him here. All he wantéd to do, he said with-a somewhat sheepish grin, was to send up-a- few. smoke signals, As president. of the Mission Indians—some 25 tribes in Southern California—he had a few words he wanted to say. The group which was willing to listen was a Senate subcommittee. . It was assigned to conduct hearings on two bills introduced by Sen. Hugh Butler of Ne_braska, One would remove restrictions on property belonging to members of the Hoopa, Mission and Sacramento tribes in California and give them complete citizenship. The other would provide for percapita distribution of certain funds in the treasury to the credit of the Indians.

A Few Words Off the Cuff, Too

ADAM SAID a few words off the cuff before he began reading a prepared statement. He said that the Mission tribes added up to 2500 Indians in Southern California. They were very poor, he said. Somei times they ate “second day bread.” Sometimes very little ‘else. Some were farmers—not very good farmers. ‘Some painted; others were carpenters. Their lot was not happy, being-wards of the government.

The way sandwiches and box lunches were put together is a tribute to the man who first started mass production.

How Many Hams, Sir?”

IT WAS NOTHING for Mr. Wurz to answer Maggie's question of “How many hams this morning, Uncle Ralph,” with “300.” Ham salad? Oh—260. That's not counting the roast beef, salami, cheese, tender-| loin and braunsweiger. Butler University’s Canteen had 450 ordered that morning.

I fail to see the logic, she says, because it is well known that one gets stiffer sitting down than standing up. As for this escort business, a loaded lady is no less loaded if she is accompanied by the entire Notre Dame football team.

What Drives Ladies Into Saloons

IF THEY ARE going to try to hem us in with legislation like that, she says, I want to propose a! law that makes it illegal for a married man to enter a ginmill unless he is accompanied by his everloving gyro compass, meaning me, my dove. I wish a sociological survey to determine what drives ladies inte" saloons, anyhow, and I think it is a cinch to show that the answer is irresponsible husbands. --I-foresee, she says, if this silly legislation goes into effect, a black market in escorts who will herd you| into the pub and order your drink for a small fee. Furthermore, the serious female -tippling, - which 1 deplore, is not done in barrooms but in the kitchen, when the poor woman is low in the mind because her knight errant is off coursing after 'spme biond, and she figures a little notch in the panther-juice vial ‘under the sink ain't going to cripple her for permanent, ? Most of the drunks I have ever seen, she says, were wearing blue serge pants. As far as the morality | goes, it takes two to make a pickup and there has] been no legislation to out-of bars.
