Description:	As morning comes, the wind picks me up. I feel nervous and afraid since that dog gothold of me. The wind becomes strong enough to gather me up and in a short time depositsme atop of a hill. I can see for miles and miles. Two people are coming up the hill. Asthey draw nearer, I see that they are a couple of the Forty-niners. When they get close tomy resting place I hear one say, “Bonnie, I’m glad we found this nice quiet place to talk.There is also a good view.’ It is Bonnie Marie Galyan and Katherine Illeen McGowen. Asthey are talking about their boy friends, I conclude they are as yet unmarried. I enjoy verymuch listening to them talk. A black cloud forms and when Bonnie and Katherine notice it,they jump up and run down the hill in search of shelter.The cloud bursts and the rain pours out of it. It washes me down the hill toward a littlestream. I drop into the little stream and the current carried me merrily on my way. “SoLong, Forty-Niners. I hope that I may visit you again sometime soon.’’NEXT .’Disgruntled dairymen in some parts of the South are grumbling about the poor hay cropthey harvest annually. Due to dry weather, they assert that in many sections the hay is always so short that it has to be lathered before it can be cut.Amateur-farmer Nunnally Johnson declares that such reports just aren’t true. “Why,’’he points out, “on my farm in Georgia, conditions are ideal. Things grow so fast down therethat when we throw, shelled corn to the chickens, they either have to catch it on the fly or eatit off the stalk ’LABELED WITH CAREA friend of mine, settling a relative’s estate had to go through all her belongings. Shehad been a thrifty soul who had saved everything, labeling each package. My friend thoughthe had hit a high of some sort when he discovered a package marked, “Dress snaps that donot match.’’ But shortly afterward he found a box labeled, “String too short to use.She was sick in bed, and her husband, who was fixing her a cup of tea, called out that hecouldn’t find the tea. “I don’t know what could be easier to find,* she answered. “It’s rightin front on the pantry shelf in a cocoa tin marked matches* *THE BEST MEDICINELetter to the editor of a correspondence column: “I am only 19 and I stayed out till twothe other night. My mother objects. Did I do wrong?’The answer: “Try to remember.’“I got up at dawn to see the sun rise,’ boasted a tourist.“Well,’ commented his friend, “you couldn’t have picked a better time. ’TAXI TRADE ONLYA woman returned a smart pair of shoes to the exclusive shop where she had purchasedthem.“They won’t do,’ she announced. “I simply can’t walk in them.’’“Madam,” the clerk replied, looking down his nose, “people who have to walk don’t shophere.”THE LIGHTER SIDEA jail warden says that college men make good prisoners. This is another clinching argument for higher education.***A scientist has a theory that life on this planet began in hot water. Began?***Don’t reproach Junior if he gets excited about nothing. He may become a great play-by-play broadcaster.18
