' TODAY’S FOLKYDOT TALE
We promised a story today on
Auoiphus iPulkydot) Williams, a
fisherman of note and distinction.
Now that the time has ome to write
it, we find it hard to tell which
one. There are enough good ones
on Polky to fill the whole news
paper. , -j
Like when Mince MeLamb, L. A.
Monroe and Jesse Capps presented
him a new fishing pole last sum-
mer.
It seems that Polkydot loaned
somebody his prized and treasured
pole and it got broken—by a big
one that got awayl Polky fussed,
fumed and quarreled so much about
that fishing pole that his three
buddies got tire of it and deided
to present him a new one.
“By golly, we’ll just get him a
pole," declared Mr. Mac. They did
and all three called at the barber
shop to make the presentation.
And what a pole it was—Aact
ly 44 feet long. Took all three of
them to carry it. It had a hook so
big that it looked like the anchor
of the Queen Mary, and a 200-
watt light bulb was used for a
cork. The sinker weighed about 20
pounds.
Polky hasn’t peeped a bit about
a pole since.
But he’s doing more than squawk
ing these days. He's fighting mad,
burned up all over, and practically
jumping up and down. He’s fit to
be tied.
Capps, MeLamb and Monroe are
—or have been—his closest bud
dies. But now, he swears on all
that’s Holy that he doesn’t know
such people, never heard of them
and hopes he'll never meet ghem
•again.
‘ln fact,-it’s pot safe to mention
their name while getting ashave .
in Polky’s chair or you might end
up with a slit throat.
All because Mr. MeLamb, Mr.
Monroe and Mr. Capps decided to j
show their esteem, affection and
kindness for their dear pal Polky.
Atfer a recent trip to the ooast, I
they presented Polkydot a beautiful
14-pound fish. \ j
Being a fresh water fisherman i
Who won’t go near the ocean, Polky
doesn’t know a Tuna from a Bass
or a Mackrel from a Flounder.
The fish they gave him was a
Tuna, but they told him it was a
king Mackrel. Polky was elated,
decided they were his friends after
all, took it home and proudly show
ed it to Mrs. Williams and then
took it down to A1 Wullenwaber at
Colqnial Frozen Food Lockers to be
processed into fish steaks.
“I’m really going to enjoy some
good eating,” polky bragged to Al.
Immediately, All recognized the fish
as a Tuna and knew it wasn’t fit
to eat, except with special process
ing. But he knew about the trick
being played on Polky and decided
to go along with it.
Polky went back to work, telling
everybody about the feast in store
for him.
A day or so later, Mr. Monrpe
learned that Poly’s daughter, Carol,
and her husband were home for a
visit.
“Oh, Oh,” thought Mr. Mon
roe, “Polkkydot will bring out that
fish sure as the world. I Just
couldn’t do that to his guests.” Sure
enough, Polky had already told pis
daughter about the feast of ffch lh
store for her.
Being a good Samaritan, Mr.
Monroe called in Polkydot and con
fessed the plot.
Polkydot turned all the colors in
the rainbow, blew up to where he
couldn’t even speak and stamped
out like a bull getting ready to
charge at a red flag.
"And to think.” said Polky a day
or two later when he finally got
able to talk again. They were my
friends: they wdre people I trusted.
“Wny,” he raged, “anybody wno
would do that would put bees and
frogs in their grandmother’s bon-
I net.”
Just for Polky's information, we’ll
tell him now that he hasn’t heard
the last of that fish story yet.
There’s more to And is he
going to be surprised!
Incidentally, Mince MeLamb pro
fesses complete Innocence, says he
happened to be at the beach at the
time, but didn’t plot that Tuna
qn Polky.
“You know I wouldn’t do a thing
like thgt,” Sipiled l|4r. l£ac.
