The {mayor's feat at the speedway is bringing him fame and fortune. He expects an of- fer to become a movie actor. “It's all understanding the nature of the mule. The mule has been a much- maligned animal,” unjustly so,” declared the mayor to a group of friends. “No animal is more susceptible to kind | treatment and no animal will be quicker to resent an affront,” he added. The mayor declares the mule has been misunderstood. “Stubborn as a mule,” is wrong, ac- cording to the mayor, who explains the mule is not stubborn, but merely has the courage of its convictions, He avers the mule knows its own gait ! and does not attempt to exceed the speed | limit. It does not believe in working untfl its nature has been exhausted, nor will it suppinely submit to scurrilous at- | tacke. | “Man's most faithful friend in s | mal kingdom,” says the mayor.
