One must always admire those who can come up with
• the scent of roses under any circumstance, as exemplified by
a recent incident which happened to us. We were wending
our weary way homeward when we noticed two young boys
playing behind a truck parked at the curb. More out of
instinct than alertness we slowed almost to a crawl and
J braked easily to a stop as one youngster, maybe 8 or 9 years
, old, darted out almost in front of us before being jerked to a
halt by his companion. Not the least discomfited, the young
fellow leaned over to our window and, as politely as anyone
could wish, said: “You should really be more careful with

Does anyone else have the trouble with vacuum-packa-
ging and form-mold containers that we do? With us,
liberating the contents from one of these tough little
wrappings often takes on the aspect of a bloody struggle.
And we mean this literally. A desperate attack with av
screwdriver on a package of small cookies recently left us
with a punctured forefinger. An attempt on a package of dry
dog food with a paring knife gave us a minor cut on the back
of the hand. We sprained a thumb trying to open an ordinary
quart of buttermilk. And we consider ourself a reasonable fit
and healthy male adult. In all seriousness we ask: is it not
possible for a very elderly or enfeebled person living alone to
starve to death in the midst of plenty, if plenty is such
stubborn packages of edibles?

Pouges, Wilkersons and
Dawsons were the general
host and hostesses of the
affair.

CHANGING JOBS: A for-
mer Catholic priest, John
Bauer, is openi
bookstore in
Mont., a college
directed the Helena Catholic
Charities from 1966 to 1970,
but quit the clergy to teach
He's now 44 and an associate
professor of social work at
Montana State University.
Bauer feels that this store
will “help people with their
sexual vibes.’’ He also said
that his views on sex “are
probably different from
those of the Holy See.” A
slight understatement.
PUBLISH: Two fire mar-
shals staking out several
buildings in New York City
watched helplessly as a man
walked up to their stakeout
van and siphoned all the gas
out of their tank. To avoid
detection, they couldn't
leave the van. They also
thought the man was a
would-be arsonist. But he
calmly poured the fuel into
the tank of his car and drove
away, leaving the embar-
rassed marshals to radio for
a gas delivery from Fire
Deprartment headquarters.
They had that empty feeling.

have collected at the Lewis-
ton, Idaho, Gun Club’s gun-
nery range for the past 17
years. Foff estimates that
up to 120 tons of lead pellets
could be reclaimed from the
range. At 38 cents a pound,
the lead could be worth
191,200 The pellets are
cleaned, then recycled to
shooters who load their own
shells. On target!
WINGS OF MAN: Kenneth
Dale Bolyard, 33, was flying
his single-engine plane from,
McAlester, Okla., to Paris,
Tex., when the plane’s oil
pump failed. He brought the
aircraft down between two
southbound vehicles on the
Indian Nation Turnpike in
Antlers, Okla. He headed
straight for a service
station. Bolyard left the
plane for repairs and
resumed his journey by auto.
A thinking man.
ONE SMALL MISTAKE:
What do you do with a |6
million sewage treatment
plant that has no outlet
pipe? Stafford County, Va.,
Board of Supervisors has
appropriated 112,000 to
install the 20-inch pipe. F.
Freeman Funk of the engi-
neering firm of Russell &
Axon deccribed the missing
pipe as “a design oversight.
Sounds like a pipe dream.

What does one do when the television goes off? Well, at S
the recent outage at our house we put on some recordings of |
very old radio shows, namely the Adventures of Sherlock
Holmes, With old friends Nigel Bruce and Basil Rathbone.
Granted, the story of the theft of the Bruce Partington plans
may seem a bit outdated, but what really rung the nostalgia
bell was the sponsors pitch. We wouldn’t have thought of
Bromo-Quinine for a peck of pickles. This particular potion
was the bane of our youthful illnesses, set before us at the
first sign of sweats, fever, nausea, or general malaise.
Apparently based on the premise that any efficacious
medication must curdle the taste buds, the makers disdained
any form of sugar coating on the pills. And they were awful
doses indeed! but, apparently they worked: we survived our
youth, didn’t we, albeit it did leave a somewhat bitter taste
in our mouth!

It brings back to us so vividly those days of early autumn of
years ago when the gins often ran all night tong and the
rhythmic muffled whump-whump-whump could be heard all
over town, a comforting reminder of the annual white
