WTVD yoa read that wallop Bob 8Un-, unless you count the quarter of a mfl

Petty Tlclaa asked gleefully aa aba and
tha aaat wind that blew In with her
roused T. Paer from hta rmrl by tha
fir. "That story about hi a resign! ng's

"Why." PoHy ax claimed. "Bob aaya It
ain't ao that anybody wanted him to
resign."
-Well.- T. Faar responded, "If Bob'd
erar rt wast of WeUer niayba he'd
know atftswet."
"Oh. U stn't necessary for him to
eome to Oregon to know what people
think of htm." Polly contended. "Ferd
kaapa htra wlaed up on what'a goln on
4on't hat"
"1 guess ao." T. Paer admitted, "but
Ford's lUbla to think everybody thinks
what ha thlnka."
"Maybe ha la." Polly agreed, "but did
Tea read where Bob aaya they're Just
tickled to death with how hard ha'a
been working on hla commltteea back
there."
"I read that too." T. Paer admitted,
"ad 1 couldn't help feelln' awful aorry
for tha other member.
"Somr Polly grinned. lt Bob'a
been workJn' ao hard on 'em the rent
of tha felUha must be blamed near
tarkered out from overwork."
"I wouldn't wonder thera'a aomelhlng
In that." Polly conceded, "but Bob aaya
he'a gone up four claaaea by reason of
aenlortty. What doea ha mean by that
do you aoppneeT"
"Soma of thfl other fellaha must of
worked tbemaelvea to death," T. Paer
' r ig anted. "I den t know of anything
elaa that d boost Bob up tha ladder
moch."
"Bob'a awful peeved because they
i aald ha wasn't on the Job much." Polly
atnlled. "He aaya he'a only been gone
from Washington i days out of 163
when tha senate wae In session."
That'e a Pretty good record, for
Bob," T, Paer admitted. "He ain't
kMK absent aulte half the time, has
heT-
"BoL" Polly argued. "Bob aaya IX
ha hadn't been gone the llvesrtock men
and tha farmera wouldn't have got any
loans from tha government.'
"1 didn't know. they'd got any." T.
Paer observed, "except down In Texas
nd up In Washlnaton 'nd oyer In Idaho,
"Well, it'a got ma all mixed up,'
Polly confided. "I didn't think Bob'd
been doing much back there ao far aa
being senator's concerned, but from
what he aaya he'a been on the Job reg
ular when he'a needed."
"Ch, huh. T. Paer grunted, "he waa
there to make that speech that the
lawyer for Louie Swift had wrote up
for the meat packers, 'nd wanted aoroe-
body to make in the senate all right.'
"They aay it waa a fine speech.
roily aald thoughtfully. "Isot many
fellaha could've got it up.
I guess that'e the reason everybody
knowa the lawyer fellah slipped It to
Bob," T. Paer grinned. "Bob'a handler
talkln' to sheep'n to senators usually.
"But I don't think that waa what Bob
waa thinking of when ha aald he waa
on tha lob." Polly Instated. "I don't
think he'd brag about doing that chore.
"Maybe ho waa thlnkin' about votln'
to aeat Newberry," ' T. Paer auggested.
"lie wasn't overworkln' himself to get
money for the farmera when tha fellaha
wanted him to hang 'round to vote for
Truman."
"What else could he dor Polly asked
combatively. "Bob knows what it costs
to run for senator.
I ain't goln' to deny that," T. Paer
chuckled. Tlggerin' the sise of Oregon
'nd the sixe of Michigan. I guess it
rauata cost Bob about aa much a head
to be elected aenator aa It did Truman."
"I thought of that." Polly admitted,
"that's why It seemed to mo that Bob
had to atlck with Newberry or be a
abort .port."
"Well." T. Paer mused, 'Tm glad
Bob'a satisfied with himself. That
makes one vote, anyway."
"I never did think much of that re
signing stuff." Polly said. "Bob tried
too hard to be senator to chuck the Job
now he'a got it"
"It'a one thing to try to be a senator
'nd another to be a aenator," T. Paer
replied, "but I couldn't see why Bob'd
resign unless he had to.
"No," Tolly agreed, "when a fellah
gets elected he's pot the title, anyway."
"Tou bet," T. Taer agreed, "nd he's
got the pay check. 'Nd If he'd resign
I he'd only have the handle on his name
I left, 'nd," he concluded sagely, "that
wouldn't be worth a whoop
lateral the way things Is."

"Here we are. ma'am !" the driver an

"How much do I owe you 7" Helen
asked, timidly.
The man consulted hla taximeter, a
clock-faced affair that the girl had no

"How shall I get my trunk in?" she
queried, her sense of Ignorance Increasing.
"How many flights up?" the man
asked.
"I do not know," Helen confessed, "But
then, is a bell by that card."
"It's on the third floor," the driver In
formed her, glancing at tne name indi

When he reached the third floor he put

"How much do I owe you lor DraeuK

"Just whatever you choose, miss." the
man said, eyeing her purse expectantly.
Helen remembered that she had paid
