Show FERNSTROM WONDERS WHY THEY LAUGHED This Is Just a side light on a certain member of the City Council. To be exact, ex-act, the member In question is that able master of English, Councilman F. S. Fernstrom. At one of the weekly sessions recently recent-ly Mr. Fernstrom arose to make some "conversationlings. yes. sir." Owing to the warmth of his remarks and the heat of the room he had unloosed his waistcoat. Councilman Black rose to a point of order that "the gentleman was 'en deshabille." . Councilman Fernstrom smiled In approval ap-proval at Councilman Black. He slowly slow-ly unfolded himself and said: "Mr. Bresldent. yes, sir; that is Just why I got up. sir, slr--'to dish a bill.' " The Council laughed all but Councilman Coun-cilman Fernstrom. He is still wondering wonder-ing "why they laffed. yes, sir." |
