Btllmore National Postponed The stockholders of the First Na tional of Bellmore did not hold their election on Tuesday, but postponed it until Tuesday, January 27. There is no special significance to the postpon ing beyond considering convenience to the stockholders. Random Rays (By J. H. S.) WOW—The Old Boys are in for a Young Time. The popular song now is—“Did You Get Your New Gland, Grandpa Dear?” All the R. Van Winkles will get Ape Glands and act like Monkeys. Don’t call the Funny-Coach if you see Old Uncle Oswald in a Clawham mer Suit and a Shiny Hat. Give him a chance, he’s only a Young Feller try ing to get along. Why, One First-Class Gland would have made Uncle Tom run Eliza a Close Second over any Ice Track. Those Pep Glands can’t be such a new thing. The Prof, must have been Wised by one of the Antique Gay Dogs while spending a Jazzy Evening at some Roof Garden. Why not take a Gland from one of those Ante Belum Shimmyers and give the Ape a chance. The Shimmyer's Day is over any way. I It would be Tough on the Ape | though.
