Look who’s here! ! .
Strange thing's happen. Would
you have believed it? Here I am
honobbing along in the old Union
Recorder with Will Rogers who says
all he knows is what he wes in tho
papers. I can’t claim to be in tho
same class with Will, but I’d hate
for some of the things I know to get
into the papers.

Jean, an only child, glanced cov

“I’ll take my piece now, too.” she

I'm just wondering if having my
name above this column makes me
t-iigibk- to membership in the Geor
gia Press Association—here’s hoping.
Now cast your eye up at the head
ing of this column. Isn't that classy?
The picture doci/nt look much like
me—but then all my friends know
how 1 look—so what’s the odds? In
talking it over—the editor mys to me
—“guess we’d better have your pic
ture, at the top—nearly all the
columnist do—and it will help fill up
anyhow.” And then we begun to talk
about the matter and he says “now
name some of the subjects you'll
diucuss, I’d like to get a line on what
you think you’ll use for a month
or two,” and right then I begun to
start to back out. “My word, man,
do you think you can tie a woman
down like that? I’m going to be a.
free lance and write what ever comes
up first I may debate the subject
as to which is of the most importance I
to the cat—it’s whiskers or its tail— |
or then again I may write some “open
letters” to various fo'lka like Will
Rogers does to Mr. Coolidge, for you
can say pretty much what you wont
to this way and nobody gets mad.
If the President doesn’t—wc can’t
afford to” and so forth and so on.
So you see I bea; the boss to it when
he wanted to t.c me down to sub
jects that mayle I didn’t know any
thing about at all. Sometimes it
might be best to discuss questions
that have two sides and write in such
a way that no matter what you say
folks on both sides will agree with
you. I don’t know whether that
would entitle a fellow to tke name ol
a “politician” or a “diplomat.” II
couldn't b? both—could it? A politi
cian “stirs up” and a diplomat
“smooths down”—so I feucss the best
thing for me to do is to swim to the
.'’..ore—I am already getting
water over my head.
And so it was that “the boss” and
I stopped jus't short of blows when
I explained to him that to have a
set subject was just like introducing]
a follow and saying “now Mr. So-and |
-so—will make us a funny speach.”
Poor th»ng he wouldn’t be able to
find a joke if he had a p:ck in his
pocket
And so in winding up the argument
—all of it on the boss’s side 1 usm
you—for 1 already knew what I t
going to do—I said—“you see I will
just write about this—that und the
otht-r.’’ Then he jumped up and
cracked his heels together (every
body who believes that—mail
dollar I and cried—“that's the
phant's parasol! That's what we’ll j >'fj'
call your column—“TKi!*—That—and |
the Other”—that’s great!” ! syt
So you see friends, that it is’ntjM
my fault that such a broad subject!
was selected—it was Fate. I am yet I ^ (j
trying to decide as to whether the j
boss didn’t put something over on me Lj
and tie me down anyway. Is this'E^l
first column about This—or is itjPl
about That? Or—is it about the M
an't decide—and all
am nearly to the but- •
