I once knew a fellow by the
name of Faddefunk Fanning, who
spent two hours every Sunday
afternoon'looking at his bare feet
and watching his’ toes wiggle.
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.
