THE WEST Il | REPORT ON 1937 Tuis being the open season for reports on the calendar year of 1937, I respect. fully submit herewith some facts selected at random from the files of findings made by agents of my Odd Human Be. havior Institute, which maintains branch offices in all principal cities of the United States and Canada. On June 10th, Eustace Button, driver of a Chicago laundry truck, informed a Mrs. Tillie Drudge that one of her dresses had been lost. “I suppose,” Mr. Button said, “‘that it was a very expensive dress and the first time you had sent it to the laundry.” “Why, no,” Mrs. Drudge told him, “it was just a cheap print I've had for years. Let's forget the whole thing.” In Pittsburgh last March 8th an irate newspaper subscriber named Homer A. Matt wrote a letter to the editor cancel- ling his subscription and vowing never to look at another copy of the paper. My Pittsburgh agent has affidavits proving that Mr. Matt did not buy several sub- sequent issues of the paper to see if the editor had printed his letter. On the morning of September 29th a Dallas, Texas, housewife entered a butcher shop and ordered a pound of steak at 47 cents. After weighing the meat the butcher said, “It's a little over a pound—will fifty-one cents be all right?” The housewife shook her head. “T ordered a pound at forty-seven cents,” she said firmly, “‘and that’s what I want.” A Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Brumbaugh, of Des Moines, Iowa, went to a party on the night of April 7th on condition that they leave at 10:30. At exactly 10:30 p-m. Mrs. Brumbaugh excused herself from a group of gossiping ladies and walked over to Mr. Brumbaugh who was listening to a story being told by his host. “Time to go home, Samuel,” said Mrs. Brumbaugh. Mr. Brumbaugh put down his half-filled glass. “All right, dear,” he said. “Goodnight, everybody.” Late in November an unknown Mont. real citizen donned a pullover sweater, found he had it on backwards, withdrew his arms from the sleeves and switched the garment around without putting (a) both arms through the neck, (b) one arm through the neck and the other nowhere, (c) both arms through one sleeve, or (d) starting over. For a nominal sum, bulletins of the year 1938 will be mailed to O. H. B. In- stitute subscribers as often as reports are turned in by my agents. Several grains of salt will be included with each bulletin. —Gurney WILLIAMS. comicbooks.com om % ay st Llbap Me, Bry)
