TOTAL ....1147.35 suMMary By ELMER PlCKNEY Iear Customers: No doubt you've read about the Chipley lad who called up to say that Id'l Klmer's stuff on page one is nothing but "a lot of boloney." Pick-ney, he remarked, would go well with sandwiches. Who does he think I am? Kenneth Ormiston? The only sand witch that I know of is Aimee McPherson, the strawberry blonde who broke all records walking through the deserts of Mexico and Arizona. Any girl who walks through two deserts is a sand witch if ever there was one. But I'm not the kind of a fellow who will take a giri away from another man.

Not when she's 3.000 miles away. But this Chipley chap went farther than a wife who diss into her husband's pockets and sug-tests that the boss remove Pick-ney from the front page like "Doc" Thomas removes bunions and "Doc" Osborne removes blackheads. "Cap" Boghich's whiskers and the Kishteenth amendment, all at one and the same time. He, (the Chipley guy) said Pickney gave him a headache and he could write better comedy himself. Well, let no one say that Pickney isn't game.

If all the customers will take their pens in hand as readily as they'd take their typewriters ill their arms, what a bunch of dope I.i'l Klmer would have. I could then write a whole week's column at one time and have enough material left to make a shirt for Fatty Arbuckle, and Judge Taft.
