By the Way (Continued)

close its doors Monday night, May 26. It employs seventy-seven bartenders and clerks. For the past four years it has sold an average of twenty thousand drinks a day." The eminence of Bridgeport in this respect would thus seem to exceed that of Mexicali, just across the border in Lower California, which for several years claimed to have "the longest bar in the world." But why is Bridgeport thus distinguished?

John McCormack can tell stories as well as sing, it seems. Here is one of his afterdinner anecdotes: "Two Irishmen were at work when the whir of an airplane was heard. One of the men stopped work and gazed up at the machine. Then he said: "Oi'd not loike to be up there in that thing, now." Said the other, also gazing: "Well, oi'd not loike to be up there mesilf without it."

A quick-witted Salvation Army man gathered in a tidy sum in New York City during the "drive" for thirteen millions. He asked two Salvation Army lassies to fstand beside him on the platform and said: "Soldiers have been decorated in various ways, but there is only one way to decorate these girls." Thereupon, taking two one-dollar bills from his pocket, he pinned one upon each of his fellow-workers. The crowd proceeded to follow his example, and in a few minutes both girls were covered with greenbacks from head to foot. When their decorations were removed they totaled $287.
