KENNEDY. ‘WASHINGTON, December 10. HEN the gavel falls it makes a difference whose ‘right ment of authority. Repre- sentative “Joe” Walsh of Massachu- setts, physically _the smallest man in Congress, is unanimously admitted to be the most vigorous gavel wielder in that body. He has been chosen by the Hiouse as “substitute Speaker,” and since Speaker Gillett has been suffering from laryngitis and unable to speak above a whisper, Representative Walsh has been doing daily service. Hammering the marble desk of the Speaker with the gavel has dome it considerable damage and necessitated repeated repairs. Bert Kennedy, the | House doorkeeper. got a heavy block of oak wood for the Speaker to ham- mer upon and save the desk, but this lasted only two days before it split and splinters were scattered about the vicinity. Then ' Representative “Pat” thur of Oregon, whose real name is| Clifton N., substituted a nice round block of Oregon myrtle, which had served a similar purpose during the two sessions that he presided over the Oregon state legislature. The Oregon myrtle lasted three months, and near the close of the session “Joe” Walsh's vigorous blows shattered it. McAr- thur has sent to Oregon for a supply of these blocks to save the marble desk for posterity. * % Xk Probably there is no more embar- rassing position for one presiding in the Speaker's chair to find himself in than when the spring gives way and the back of the chair falls back and he goes sprawling with his feet thrown up above the Speaker’'s desk. That's what happened the other day to Representative McArthur, whc weighs well over 200 pounds. Door- keeper Kennedy and Park@mentarian Lehr Fess had all they could do to pull Yhim up again to a dignified position. * K Xk Representative Martin B. Madden, chairman of the House appropriations HON. MARTIN B. MADDEN. has a boast that cannot be challenged or matched by any of his colleagues. “I have never asked or accepted any patronage job for any of my con- stituents,” said Chairman Madden, “so I have no favorites on the govern- ment pay roll to protect,” he ex- plained. * % %k % ‘The pride of a man in his job and his love for his tools are being urged by Dr. H. Foster Bain, director of the United States bureau of mines, as matters to be taken into serious con- sideration toward getting more and better work done and keeping the workmen rhore contented. He gives a little sermon on the subject, as follows: “Men generally dislike to do work that they feel belongs to others. It seems to run counter to an inherent sense of right. “Ask a child to put and no one had to get upat 5 o'clock, either.
