Nobody's Business " i Written for The Chronicle by Gee McGee, Copyright, 1926. i Gaptitol City New# Washington, D. C.?A committee composed of the wives of all the Senators, ussisted by the Secretary of War and the Chief Officer of the Dead Letter Department, finally decided just where Mrs. tiann would sit at the next luncheon given by royalty or prominent homcfolk. Mrs. Del'riest- will be moved down one notch. Due to the brilliant work of Sc'n ator Cole L. Please, the Chief of Police of the District of Columbia has instructed all of the officers to stop and desist and forever quit flashing flashlights on any persons that might be caught necking in or near the parks or on any front porches'ansyforth. Since this change has been made, necking has increased over 76 per cent in the city. Of course, juntas soon as jthe weather gets a little bit colder, the main hug-fests will be held in automobiles and parlor-rooms. ?3 Pres. Hoover gave Prime Minister MacDonakl a right good time while he was over recently planning to outlaw war. They sat on a log out in the woods near the fishing shacks and agreed to spend $989,777,655,00 each, for light cruisers during 19 and 30, but Great Britain can finish her 9 warshipft now under construction, provided Uncle Sam decides not to scrap any of his new ones. Society is agug over the settlement of the. fature war question, and nobody will; ever get shot in battle from nbw on. ?x /J j A yo-yo party was given at the Italian embassy last Saturday night and everybody from the Secretary of Labor down to the ranking officers in the army was present. There were all kinds of yo-yos there, and it looked once like the ambassador from (Peru was going to out- yo-yo the. entire crowd, Imt he broke hi3 string, and the honor fell to Prince Jjn-jibsn of Japan.

JiVashington' information before congress andytlfc president,) it has been very dr? Ui places. Some of the principal-polity cal leaders didn't get their morning drams until nearly 7 o'clock, An-1 . much to the surprise of the wives ot many of the social bomb-throweis, '} their hubbies came home sober 2 or 3 nights last month. ] . ??? ??? i A great many Hoover democrats from Florida and Texas and Virginia have, paoki-d up and gone home after remaining for the past 4 month* tiwainting a plum of aome kind. They ueemed rather discouraged when oldline republicans got all of the apr points in connection with the coming ensus taking, and a great many C(f them were heard to say that they were learning to feel very kindly towards democrats generally and Al. Smith religiously. In the Sweet Buy and Buy The weekly meeting of the instalment collectors of our little city was held lust night in the auditorium. All of the active members except 422 were present, and they came, but wouldn't get jn . owing to the crowd. Bill Dodger gave a very interesting talk on "How to Got There First/' He explained that a good collector is the collector who always stands bo close to the paymaster's window that he is the first guy to find out how much his "prey" draws. He told the boys that he was always f 2 days ahead of the grocer, 4 ahead of the doctor, and 2 months ahead of the preacher. ? *. ?r Check Flasher gave a 4-minute discourse on "Tactful Tactics." He insisted that the quickest way to get pay for a radio is to begin tering down the outside aerial and mumble constantly while doing so that the best programs are yet to come. He said he never permitted any of his "clients*' to tote their money for a greater distance than 30 feet. He even koaifcs the bootlegger by 5 minute*. nmu?1 O. D. Scoundrel was the third speaker. His subject was?the Money or Else." He prevailed on tb^ boys in the feather-bed game to do their collecting just before feed-time. He generally waits till the old man has removed his britches and turned d?wn the kivver, and he lays low till the <jld woman slides into her fleeced lined night gown, and then he goes in and tells 'em that it is either the cash right then or a sweet night of rapose on the floor. He hides arouiyi ifc his trxick aiid i never cuts off ttfe motor while proceeding on the inB?ie. ?... Ima Dedbeet with the "Ride-While You-Pay Company" informed th boys that it was pure blank ruoriiiji after the folks who owe money. H< said that his followers made a breal for his joint just as soon as thej were paid off, and he usually had th< pleasure of opening their envelopes His motto is 'MSellum and Bindem.' He takes a mortgage on everything they ever owned except the cat, and he doesn't hafter to bother his head about the pay-end of the matter. He bellowed forth the fact that . . "Folks ain't goner walk no more," and ho knew his chassis. ~ ; . A round table was held after ihe main speeches, and crackers and balogny was served at 10 cents a hunk, ;ash in advance, by the committee on ;ntertainment. During the pro and ion discussions, many good points vere brought out. Some of tl^p boys vear "tective" buttons and keep them lisplayed during the engagem^t^ ie said it had a wonderful effect on he folks who are afraid of the law. ). I. Chassem felt that kind wocds tnd soft soap were useful instrunents in the matter of getting the oin, but the general impression was hat the seller should tie 'em tight ind the roiinding-up would be easy. Vfter singing "I am waiting for y6u," he meeting was brought to a close. Plotted to Kill 'Husband Dobson, N. C., Nov. 1.?Edwari Vi. Colen and Mrs. Lucy Culler, con- j ricted of conspiracy to murder Robie duller, husband of Mrs. Culler, toiay faced prison sentences of from three to five and two to three years respectively.
