FOR TOYS ' a
WASHINGTON, D. C, Dec. 12.-T-Travesties
on the recent national elec
tion and public issues enlivened the
annual . dinner of the Gridiron Club
Saturday night. President Wilson,
members of the Cabinet, diplomats,
political leaders, members and members-elect
of Congress, publishers and
prominent - industrial and financial
figures of the country, were guests.
Musical and vaudeville skits satir
izing public men and events with
members of the Washington newspa
per correspondents corps in operatic
and thespian roles kept the guests in
merry humor. The climax of the en
tertainment was presented in "The
Gridiron Follies of 1916," a musical
review revealing facts, foibles and
fancies of the hour. The scene for
the follies was laid in La Fayette Park
opposite the White House, and reveal
ed as principal characters Vance Mc
Cormick, chairman of the Democratic
National Committee, and William R.
Willcox, chairman of the Republican
National Committee.
Curse Put Upon Murphy.
At the close of an opening chorus
sung by a "Galaxy of States," with
the theme, "Come let us have a jolly
time, no matter who's elected." Mc
Cormick and Willcox were disclosed
and engaged in good-natured dia
logue: McCormick Cheer up, Mr. Willcox,
the battle is over. Somebody had to
lose.
Willcox Somebody did.
McCormick Remember, you've
much to be thankful for.
Willcox Yes, we lost Utah, but we
saved Vermont.
McCormick Never mind that.
Here in the presence of this galaxy
of States we can talk things over
dispassionately.
Willcox-Say, I thought you said
the battle was over.
McCormick So it is. Tonight we
are just indulging-in a little caustic
comment on current events.
Willcox Well, if you're holding a
post-mortem, what was the matter
with New York?
McCormicfc-Murphy, curse him.
Willcox What will become 6f the
Tammany Tiger? '
McCormick It will be an open sea
son on tigers for the next four years.
Here comes the wandering minstrel
now.
Willcox By the way, did William
J. Bryan participate in this cam
paign?
McCormick Certainly. He sup-
! ported the President loyally.
Willcox Perhaps. But he must
have had laryngitis. His voice didn't
carry as far as usual.
McCormick Speaking of weak
voices, the State of Maine had some
impediment in its speech on Novem
ber 7. From 17,000 in September to
4,000 is some drop.
Willcox But Colonel Roosevelt did
not suffer from vocal trouble. His
voice was heari throughout the land.
McCormick So I noticed from the
returns. He helped us in the win-
jning of the West.
' Here the voice of Roosevelt inter
rupted the colloquy, saying: "I am
now devoting my attention to my du
ties" as a grandfather. - But my
health is bully. In 1920 the country
will know where tofind me. My ad
dress is still at Oyster Bay."
Willcox What about New Jersey?
McCormick Hush, hush, we will
talk of other things.
Willcox Well, how about Indiana?
.McCormick We" saved Tom Mar
shall out of that wreck. ' ' '
Willcox That's- so. He was run
ning, wasn't he; J I wonder what went
wrong in Kansas? .
McCormick Kansas, I can tell you.
Two-dpIIar- wheats $10 hogs. " Ford
machines -and, player-pianos. ' -;
WiIlcox-4-Do you think he kept you
out of war? "7-'';A'.. v ''r,-v
McCormick I dunno. But . some
body got us out of debt. ,
The national chairmen continued to
comment,' referring to the suffra
gists, Henry' Ford and the lonesome
"Demon Bum," who had just been
thrown- out of several more- States.
The "Demon, Rum''sang a pathetic
song, depicting the hopeless future
for i "Demon Runt and his rummy
crew," when the follies closed with
the following: - ' il 'i'
McCormick It's funny,-isn't it?
; Willcox rWhat's funny? .'If any
thing' funny tell it to me. I need
a laugh. ' ; -;- - , ... . - ' ' " . -,
McCormick Its' funny .how, the
world keeps going around, no matter
what happens. : ;Ti;?'j -f -:i'r- :,"
Willcox Yes, but it will move very
slowly for the next four years. ,-
Next came a vaudeville sketch, the
scene ft theatrical booking office, with
Roosevelt and Bryan, as "the Criss-
SATURDA
Personal Property of The Fort
Barnwell Agricultural and
Development Co.
. Mr. R. A. Nunn, Receiver of the

velopment Company, will conduct a
mammoth sale of personal, property

In addition to the sale Mr. Nunn

Colonel Harvey Sensitive.
(Jolonel George Harvey, who pre
dicted the election of Hughes by
large majority, next appeared and
was chided by the vaudeville agent
Harvey " said he was a lightning cal
culator, anTthat he had predicted the
first nomination and election of i
"certain professor in New Jersey."
Harvey Moreover, four years ago,
I calculated exactly What electoral
votes each of the three candidates
would have.
Agent Wonderful. Have you done
any of the same kind of calculating
lately?
Harvey (truculently) If you are
going to be pergonal Til not stay here
and stand fox it. I don't think I want
a job from you anyway. The North
American1 Review is good enough
vaudeville for me, good day!
Women Not Forgotten.
Counsellor Polk, of the State De
partment, appeared in quest of Sec
retary Lansing's job.

couldn't hold that. ,
'Polk--I know; but. they gave him
