“TUT TRUTH M ILL
PANHANDLERS AKE BECOMING A Nl 1SANCE
AND SHOULD BE DISCOURAGED!
Although there appears to be no necessity for men
to go without some kind of employment or food and
shelter, an ever-increasing procession of bums and pan
handlers are making Ashland a regular stop. That they
beg enough to meet needs of stomach and thirst is
evident, but their continual activity here is becoming
a greater nuisance than ever.
Perhaps some less considerate treatment of the
bums when they alight in Ashland might result in
greater consideration on their part for those they
pander.
For the most part, moochers and professional
ne’erdowells who depend on a gullible public for nick
els and climes to finance their wandering shiftlessness.
The time may be here to start teaching the un
bathed gimme-guys that Ashland no longer will be a
bonanza of soft-hearted givers who surrender their
coins as the course of least resistance. Residents should
resolve to say “No” emphatically and finally to the
chiselers, whose presence here endangers property and
people.
Hoboes and stew-bums should be discouraged from
tarrying in Ashland. They are both a nuisance and a
poor risk.

FORT GEORGE PROVES TO BE NO MAGINOT
OR SEIGFRIED FORTIFICATION!
While the whole world watches with awe and won
der the impenetrability of the Maginot and Seigfried
lines in Europe, an interesting little by-play has been
taking place in Ashland, where Fort George last week
showed that its armor could be pierced!
After hurling mortar after mortar of gooey print
ers’ ink at one of their favorite targets—the enemy
had made off with $1000 of the city’s advertising
money, snatched almost from under the thumb of the
greedy General—Fort George loosed one blast that
was of the wrong mix. It backfired.
Hurriedly the Commander of the Fort went into
a conference on strategy; the enemy had found a vul
nerable spot in the stronghold and was threatening
retaliatory measures for the latest broadside that had
smeared both truth and good sportsmanship.
The threatened counteroffensive w’as thwarted only
by reluctant retribution within the Fort itself. Hur
riedly and with an evident lack of enthusiasm the ink
pots of Fort George were turned upon its pardon-us
department and a blast w’as fired.
However, no good General ever makes unnecessary
sacrifices and the broadside was loaded with double-
soft, extra-smooth ink designed to make a loud report
but not inflict damage to the fort.
The muzzle was turned the right way, for once,
and the spectacle was satisfaction enough for the
libeled enemy.

THIRD-TERM QUESTION WOULD BE DEAD
IF ROOSEVELT COULDN’T WIN IT!
That off-stage groaning and grumbling anent the
third term mystery is rapidly reaching a crescendo
of raucous comedy. “Why doesn’t Roosevelt commit
himself?” “The people are entitled to know!” and so
on and on, wherever two republicans get together.
The painful truth of the matter is that none would
be worrying about whether President Roosevelt plans
to become a candidate for the third time unless they
thought he likely would win if he runs. Critics are less
interested in preserving the two-term tradition and
the nation’s welfare than they are in the one-term
question for the republicans.
If President Roosevelt had no chance as a candidate
none would bother to learn his plans. Political oppon
ents, by their sound and fury, indicate the great popu
larity that Roosevelt still commands among voters.
It Is Our . . .
Sincere desire to serve faithfully
and well, and again in this New
Year, at a price within the means
of the most modest purse.
