IT PAYS TO ADVERTISE in THE ENTERPRISE OUT OF GODFREY’S TEABAG This is the time of year the poli ticians elected in November take office—and the unsuccessful can didates are still out looking for jobs. One of these losers I know is the guy who pointed with pride to a 15 per cent increase in the population in the last decade. Boy, what some guys won’t take credit for! Speaking of politicians, I remem ber one political rally I was at. A man got up and said to the poli tician: "What about those power ful interests that control you?" The candidate said: "You keep my wife but of this!” I was once a cab driver in Chi cago, you know. I wonder if cab bies today do the same things I used to do. When a young couple got into the car I’d put my hat over the rear-view mirror. Boy, that was some storm we just had It’s kinda quiet in my back yard in Virginia now that it's all over. No wonder—all my chickens blew into Pennsylvania. Everything’s all frozen over on my pond and all the pretty girls are skating on it. I used to be an ice skater back on the Hackensack River. Could make a figure eight, too. Did it the hard way of course —two fours!
