While bidders for the most part know what they are getting when they bid in on any one of the 600 odd packages offered at the sale, once in a while a piece of mail is 'knocked down” that may contain, for all any- one knows, jewelry, but more often something on the order of sewing machine oil, insect powder, a musty volume of civil war jokes or the like. The laugh of the morning was pro- vided at the expense of a certain newspaper reporter—a news gatherer with the federal building as his stamp- ing ground, and who spends all his spare moments, when not chasing | items, clouting a golf ball on the nose { and then pursuing it o’er hill and dale. | One of the postmaster’s loyal crew | told this reporter that package num- | ber so and so contained a gross of golf balls; he also aaded that the chances were no one in the crowd would realize their value and he could | acquire them for a song. ! “Oh Fine.” | “Oh, fine!” quoth this brevity | hound, “I'll just romp out and get | myself enough golf balls to last all fall and most of next summer.” | So when package number so and so | reached the auctioneer’s hands that | glib gent raved thus: | “A gross of balls, people; they may | be rubber, high or know. “A little fun and amusement for the children, maybe.
