The boys at '.bp '< -tary club
have been having ‘ tine’’ times
lately. . any tine one member
calls another Mr. he 'S fined, or
if he mentr ns business during
one of the noon lunches, of if he’s
absent, etc. . . Forest Ayers got
fined recently for sprouting a
mustashe. . . amount of the fine
was two bits, and he claimed he
was overcharged.. the following
week he appeared without it, so
they fined him two bits more. .
Lt. Roy Downing got fined 50
cents in recognition of his recent
fatherhood . Charles Madsen
got soaked the customary quarter
dollar for telling a story. . . that
wasn’t a bear story. . . President
Chadwick, outside on a business
trip, is getting a long-needed
vacation from being on the
wrong end of an average of 2
fines a day. . . he can’t get out
of the Mr. habit . . the greedy
sergeant-ar arns is Raj" Martin
who gets about wi h great relish
taking in the stipends. .. but
they get him, too, once in awhile
.. . the only mistake they make
is in not fining him double. . . I
wonder if I’ll get fined for sug
gesting that. . .
