Dr. Wirt is on his way to Washington to tell all he knows about the Bright Young Men and their nefarious plans regarding Franklin D. "Kerensky" Roosevelt. Times change. It is so short a time ago that Secretary Kellogg was peeking nervously under his official bed every night looking for Reds, While, the whole Administration shuddered. Now the citizenry is looking under the beds and shuddering to find a Red Administration there.

Of course Dr. Wirt may have thought it up by himself, but there is a fairly familiar odor of Ham and Fish about it all. The doctor is the head of public school system in Gary, Indiana, one of the larger fiefs in the domain of the United States Steel Corporation, named in honor of the late lord of that house. Judge Gary's ghost, outraged at what the Code Age has done to his life work, must be haunting the purlieus of Gary nightly and scaring the good doctor to death.

It is said that the Gary school system is one of the best in the country. This tradition seems to data from the days when the United States Steel Corporation was the greatest handiwork of God, and when its founder had been canonized by the "American Magazine." It is not likely that the man picked for the head of the Judge' school system was a man naturally antipathetic toward the political and social ideals of the Judge's corporation. Time has been hard on these, as on all ideals. First it was the twelve hour day, cast out some time age with the approbation of that noted Red, with the approbation of that noted Red, President Hoover. And now these codes...No wonder Dr. Wirt is seeing ghosts. SCIO
