AMBITION
I want to bo a helpfulman
And render service true,
To cheer some pilgrhnout of luck
And show him what to do.
For if I give him a sunny smile,
Twill make another life worth while
I want to be an earnest man,
Engaged in useful woik,
To fill the hours with honest toil,
My duty not to shirk.
For if I look with willing mind
Some useful work I'll surely find.
I want to- be a kindly man,
With sympathetic heart,
For those in sorrow or distress,
To render my full part.
For after all ’tis what you g.'ve
That makes you feel it's good to
live
But most of all I want t> he
A man of sterling worth,
That I may prove my self to br
Full worthy of my birth.
For though I fill an humble piece
I then can walk with happy face

E’RE ALL GOD’S CHILLU
(and so is your old man)
By SAMUEL COOLICK
N
(NEW YORK, June 25, 1933)—Broadway, Broadway BROAD
WAY! * * * There’s magic in that word and HOW things vibrate
and hum on this amazing street * * * Broadway is miles long but
part that that has become world famous is JUST TEN BLOCKS
LONG * * * It is here where the underworld and its gangsters,
race bouts, filthy woman, parasites and vice, rubs Fhoulder with
society * * * where politicians plot just how much money they’re,'
going to plunder from the city treasury * * * races and creeds min
gle and intercourse * * * where “front page” news is made * * *
Yousah, it IS a filthy, slimy street but SO fascinating that one
just cannot resist * * * Today it is a metropolitan side show with
flea circuses, burlesue and hip shaking joints * * * BUJT there is
one thing that Broadway will always be famous for and that is
its lights * * * hundreds of thiusands, NO millions and millions ol
them flicker consistantly * * * A myriadical and soaring glimmer
always Latnes the traditional "square” v * * I can go on like this
forever but my humane story for today is just a small strand in the
woven web of life and will read like a modern fiction for the cen
tral character is Jimmy Walker * * * You remember “Night May
or” Jimmy *. * * He was me most publicized mayor New York
ever had * * * Now James J. as lie was christianed was a senator
beiore he became mayor and on the wayside he married h,s hrst
wife * * * No douut you all know that he was quite a happy cuap as
song writer (company author of “V* ill 1 ou Love Me in Uec.” etc.)
but Walker became mayor * * * And what a head man ne was ?
Broadway was his stamping ground and at every important iunc-
tion Mayor Walker and nis “dozen” police escort would come
strolling in in the midst of the occasion ¥ * ¥ bay you know just
what he traditionalized * * * Never on time * * ¥ Best messed
man ¥ * * life of every party * * » consistent joker
*• * * (and they say) a big thief * * * Then came Walkers re-
misis in the parsonage of Samuel (nice name that, no?) Searoury
who was the state prosecutor against “dapper Jim” * ¥ *' New
Yorkers- were laying odds of 3-1 that Walker’s remains ar.d in tne
midst of everything he resigned and went to Europe * * ¥ a sick
man * * * Then Mrs. Walker sued Jier spouse for a divorce ar.d the
Pope n’ the Curdinal okeyed the proceeumgs (tor a Catholic must
NEVER get “unshackled") * * * But when everything has died
down ex-mayor Walker married comely Betty Compton, a musical
comedy star » ¥ * The truth is now known that she was Jimmy's
love for me past eight years * * * Tammany Hall forced her to
marry an unknown broker Eddie Dowling (Not to be confused with
the prominent actor) because people were beginning to talk about
her and the Mayor * * ¥ (this marriage lasted exactly one week)
* * * that practically completes tiie whole story * * * it revolved
about a tiny spot called Broadway (where people sing praises about
one another ONLY AFTER THEY’RE DEAD- * * * and if this
street could ONLY talk then the .centuries to come would still blush
* * ¥ oh say, I thought you’d like to know that Jimmy Walker is
53 and Betty is 28 * * * a sort of a December-May combination
(and Jimmy WROTE the song you know.)
ETERNAL HELL
NEWS ITEM—War will never be averted as long as nations
are jealous of one another’s armies and navies and all the European
nations are lining up against the United States in the London Com
ference.
A blind soldier is lying on his back in a government hospital.
His l'aee is hideously torn and seared ar.d every so often he breaks
into a cold sweat and scieams— screams —SCREAMS * * *
To this doughboy the World War will never end and as the nurse
sits there reading to him she reads the above item and she hurries
away for the head nurse had just called her *** *
