Nobody knew why Faddefunk liked to watch his toeg. wiggling —not even Faddefunk ’himself. Some of his neighbors thought Faddefunk made a hobby of feet because when he sat down and put his legs on the porch railing it was the only time during the day that he could see his feet. Some people insisted that Fad defunk was feeling sorry for his feet. Faddefunk was a cop, who measured a little over 62 inches north and south and. six foot four from the visor of his cap to the leather-bound cuff of his pants. A lot of folks felt Faddefunk had the right to feel sorry for his feet because they carried 375 pounds, of policeman, a gun,, a club and a silver badge around the cobble stone streets of Presserville, Del aware, for 12 hours every day. It wasn’t long before' Fadde- funk’s feet became a . symbol of efficient city government fof all right - thinking taxpayers. They figured they got their money’s worth out of Faddefunk’s feet as long as he had to spend his Sun day watching them caressing the. porch railing. Everything went fine until-Mrs. Fanning, Faddefunk’s wife, be gan casting longing glances1 at a -membership in the. Presserville Wednesday Afternoon Club for Cultured Ladies. Mrs. Fanning knew that the odds were against her being accepted for member ship in the PWACFQL because .the president was the wife of a politician — and all politician’s wives are afraid of the law en forcers. Besides that, the vice-president ■was the second party on Mrs. Fan ning’s two-party line and to top everything else off, the word had spread throughout the ladies that Mrs. Fanning had a strange liking for sauerkraut and bock,beer. But rail this made Mrs. Fanning, the- more determined to share malice with the ladies and so she set about building her reputation. She gave up cussing at the dog wh0n the windows were,, .open, stopped bringing sauerkraut ■ to pot-luck dinners and began .to' chew a handful of cloves when ever she killed a quart of bock. Then she began jumping on Fad defunk and made him star,t build ing a Campaign for the next, city election when Presserville would choose a mayor. Among the many of- Fadde funk’s little pleasures that sud denly became targets for Mrs. Fanning’s culture- drive was' Fad defunk’s Sunday afternoon of foot-watching. Instead of getting better, how ever, things got worse. The ladies of the Presserville Wednesday Afternoon Club for Cultured Ladies got mad at Mrs. Fanning for depriving them of a topic for gossip. Mrs. Fanning’s' cabbage patch went to pot for lack of tending, the mayor (got mad at Faddefunk for trying to take his job from him, and Fad defunk began to develop a fine case of blisters on his feet. Faddefunk himself, became a changed man; He no longer step ped out into the street on Mon'day morning gaily swinging his night stick. He started to give out tick ets to people just for a chance to stop walking; and he began to lose weight—mostly, because' he took up golf so he could talk politics with the boys. It wasn’t long before the city budget of Presserville became so overbalanced because .of-the fines Faddefunk was bringing, in, that the city fathers began thinking seriously of having to declare a dividend.
