Dry Grins

Last week an anonymous Army officer who signed himself "A Tory" brought dry grins to the doleful face of the G. 0. P. with a 50-c- pamphlet titled Frankie in Wonderland. Sample paraphrase:

'Twas Brandeis and the brainy coves Did slyly Wallace in the wave, All Ickes were the laborgoves And the Perkins outgave.

Beware the Bankerwock, my son! The teeth that bite, the claws that snatch! Beware the Broker bird and shun The fumious Stockexsnatch!

With his Pecora sword in hand For months the Wallstreet foe he sought, So rested he by the Tugwell tree And smiled a while in thought.

And as in pinkish thought he stood The Bankerwock with eyes of flame Came underwriting through the wood And burgled as it came.

One, Two! One, Two! and through and through The Richberg blade went snicker-snack! He left it dead and with its head He came Frankfurting back.
