• Now comes the question: how will congressmen know how to vote anymore?
For it appears that there, is a Ouiia board
shortage in Washington — and how will the
i austere gentlemen know which way to turn
■without the aid of the know-it-all board? How
will they know what candidate to back; how
.will they know which way a ballot-will turn; '
' how,- in fact, will they know'if the Senators
will be tops in their league this year?
j *lfis possible that they Alight confer with
. spiritualists, mediums, astrologers, astronomers,
Iclairvoyants, fortune tellers, or even general
assortments of hand-holders, tea-leaf readers,
■ and crystal gazers—but most of these forctell-
I en of the future are booked up for six weeks
p in advance.
. For the fact is that congressmen are not the
only ones fascinated by the occult — everyone
from housewives to government girls hold
hands with -the palm reader.
B The favorite question is, "when will the
war end?" One girl at Arlington Farms, dormitory for government -girls, bragged that her
board never failed to.answer her questions. It
has predicted, for one thing, that Germany wflT
give up hj August of 1945.
The same board, asked if Roosevelt will run
for x fourth term, was generous with its answers. One night, with no hesitation .at all, it
said yes. The next earning, with equal assurance, it declared ho.    \
The somewhat bcwjldcrcd government girl
who owns the board is almost afraid to try
again — but she suspects the next answer will
bemaybf ' /     .
Even though her Ouiii mystifies her, this
particular girl is fortunate. As least she docs
have a board. Others, finding it difficult to
knake appointments with the family fortune
teller, have tried to purchase the mystic wooden slabs, only to find that the novelty shops can
pot keep them in stock.
It'is a sad day in Washington.

Strike One.
Just as Se,xJa pop and peanuts' or Brooklyn
and the Dodgers go' together, so do baseball
and the first cnxus,—the first sign of spring;
At this time of tlie year,' baseb.ill leagues from
national to neighborhood, come out. of ihcir
winter excelsior.
Up to the plate struts a freckle-faced, grimt-
smcired "junior Babe Ruth," hair in eyes, cap
cocked on back of head.
The pitcher winds up, the ball whizzes to in
nest in the catcher's mitt, and the umpire's call,
"Strike one," rings through the .ur
"Strike one? Who scz?"
"I scz." '       '
"So who?" r
"Sezl.". ■'
A,decision reached, once more the pitcher
lets go with his special curve-ball. It's a hit—
a home run!
The great American pastime is under way.-.—
