Letter To Old
Man Folks
i
My ears are sort of hurting. ■
My knees are getting stiff; ‘
Time has got me whispering
Oh, piff, piff, piff!
Dear Old Folks,
I was talking lo Thinklots a
gain this week and he told me
some more things that I had not
thought about. It is so strange a
bout how life and living along
just itches into people so and;
causes them to sometimes say a
thing that, has reason to it. Now
this brother Thinklots, I am talk
ing to you about has went and
done just that ... if he never
lives to do no more . . .
Before this week I had not put
much dependence on what Think
lots said . . . like a lot of other men
I took him to be just rambling a
long, a exercising his aongue like
some ot those big politicians do,
and so I let what he said to me
pass in at one ear and spill out at
the other.
It is true tho, that Thinklots is
a retired lawyer, and for this rea
son I always tried doubly hard to
listen closely to him . But today
-yes, today and this week, he has
really and assuredly come to his
own. Brother Thinklots has burst
i ed his shell and slid out. He will
be famous now . . . for what he
told me ... a world can agree up
on .. .
Now* I’ll tell you what he said:
“Dear Brother Pollywog, do be
lieve me this, but don’t you be
lieve anybody else anytning . . .
This is now wait-and-see time”
“If somebody tells you how the
war is going . . .toot up your nose
a bit and do a polite piff, piff. Two
of them will do the first time . . .
If he goes on and says more -
just add one other piff to each of
his says and that will be agreeing
enough . , . probably too much!
“Yes,” said I to Mr. Thinklots.
For I agreed with him 5,000 per
cent.
Thing I heard that didn’t sound
right::
“Fellow citizens, I feel assured
that tve people in America are
100 per cent for America . . . and
will all rally behind the efforts
to rid us of all un-American ele
ments and fifth columnist.”
Jim Pollywog
