CLOWS CO., Desk 39, Philadelphia, Pa. high! commendab! ona e strides upward and on his nancing the past few years. In the front part of this isene Bill's special article (Pipes, Puffs and Rings’ "’). The writer isn't trying to call special attention so you will read it, but merely to explain that he figured it would be more generally appreciated and do more general good written as it is—minus a lot of humor sad display of “big words’, but bringing out some of the good points of " pitehdom—than if bandled otherwise you will find Harry (Mack) Mabon, so it came to light last week, had a pecan store in Dallas, Tex., before the holidays. And about all the fraternity there at the time made the place a headquarters. The pecans they picked (and ate) and the pipes they shot were many. Understand that quite a number of Harry’s ol’ buddies have had their hats hanging up in St. Louis and Detroit the past winter. While heading from Chickasha Ok., to Fort Worth, Tex., for the big ‘doings’ there, J. D. (Slim) Williams piped: “Wonder what spring is going to do for Jack Kerns, Johnny Haskell and Ben Brown, all of pen fame? I hope to see Fort soon, as my ‘Henry’ hangs ont there the most of its owner's (myself) idle time. Suppose I'll see a lot of the boys at the Stock Show, and that there will be many gabfests in order. Hibler doubtless intended this bit of “Zip”’ fun only for ‘Bill's’ reading—but it’s too durn good to keep: “Bill Baker’’ had a billygoat, And it was full of tacks; He fed it up on manuscripts And second-handed cracks One day the goat consumed a bor Of some appetizer med.— The ‘‘billy’* got the bellyache And chewed up ‘Baker's’ sox. It’s now time for the boys who work low to their keisters, tripes and torches ready to their part toward next winter's b. r. Practically sl! of the boys are aware (since the writer mentioned it several times in the “column’’) that “Lill’’ does not write any of them unless it be of utmost importance to the rofession at large, critical illness, death, etc. t is easy to understand that if he wrote some and not to all he would be accused (doubtless) of having ‘‘pets’’, etc, Let it be understood clearly that he plays no favorites, and that his most earnest endeavor is to work impartially for and among them. Bob Frazier piped from Key West, Fla. (on board the S. 8S. San Jacinto), that he had quit the selling game for a spell and is just ‘‘killing time’’ for a while, he and the Mrs. being on their way from Texas to New York for a short stay, then to Buffalo. where they have a home, for the summer. In the latter city Bob expects to meet bis old ‘‘buddie’’, Jimmie Sullivan. Two prominent purveyors of ‘‘Gold Medal” garnishing knives, Art Nudelman and Ben Nathanson, rambjed thru Cincinnati early last week from Louisville, Ky., where they worked at the recent Palace of Progress Exposition at the armory. also a previous indoor ‘doings’, to—*‘somewhere"™ The bors dropped in to say “Howdy” to “Bill, and stated that the Louisville affairs did not come up to their expectations in the way of receipts. They thought they might be among those present at the next indoor doings in Detroit—altbho not sure of heading that way. Billy DeVere sboots it from Illinois that since the “Biggest Rooster in the World” (himself) recently received some more-than-tlhe-usual praise at a stand ‘‘Buster"’, the scrapping little bantam rooster that works with him, has become actualy jealous and has started flirting with all the chickens at the poultry shows and along the road. ‘But that's al) ‘kidding’ stuff," adds Billy, altho we are doing nicely now with our store show, giving bird calls, song and dance, banjo specialties and closing with the ‘rooster fight’. Anyhow, spring is here, warm weather will soon be on tap and then—bhburrab for the big outdoors!"’ Who should blow into Cincy for a few days’ stay last week but Dr. Leon Vinton Lousdale (Red Jacket), accompanied by his three Hawaiian entertainers (‘Royal Hawalian Entertainers’’, under management of Lee Makea). Doubtless many of the old heads, such as Wm. Virpulat, Jim Ferdon, etc., will be glad to hear of ‘Red Jacket"’. He and his litt'’e company of (Continued on page 116) THE “SMILING KID” Haven't received a ‘‘likeness’’ of Harry Maiers in several yeers—but the above shows him (and his smile) while enjoying @ recent winter in Florida.
