Show ROME'S QUIET UNBROKEN. One of the good stories in circulation is told by Joe Tumulty, secretary to the President. He likes his job, but he dislikes one thing about it; that he can't tell the boys the friendly reportersabout re-portersabout all they wish to know. He illustrated his inability to give information in-formation once by quoting the case of Johnny. Johnny was crying in the hall as his mother came along, hatted and coated. She asked what had happened. "You are going away; ancl so is papa!" Johnny sobbed. "Why, child, I shall be away two or three days, but father is not going away ! " "Yes, he is!" cried Johnny. "He's going to Rome." "Rome? What do you mean, dear?" asked the surprised mother. "He said today to Mr. Brown that he would make Romo howl when vou left!" "Indeed! Well, dear, I shan't leave you now." Philadelphia Press. |
