SCOTTS EMULSION High Eh£rgy tonic BROADWAY AND MAIN STREET If the Brakes Don't Work Just Hit Something Cheap -By BILLY ROSE- A fellow tried to sell me a helicopter the other day. He told me I could hop from the roof of my theatre to my place in West chester in 20 minutes, and added that it was as easy to drive as a car. I told him I wasn’t interested because I couldn’t drive a car. How come? Didn’t I ever try and learn? Just once. And here’s what happened. . . . One day several summers ago, my wife said, *T wish you’d learn how to drive. Every time you want a paper or a pack of cigarettes, I’ve got to stop what I’m doing and chauffeur you Into the village.” “Okay,” I said, “if you’U play teacher.” Next morning I crawled Into the car beside Eleanor. “Just turn this jigger over,” she began, “push 1 n this dingus, pull out this doohickey, step on this wing- doodle, press down o n this thing — a m a b o b, and you’re all set to go." “What’s this giz mo?" I asked. brake,” she said. You throw it on quickly in case of emergency.” "What happens If the brakes don’t work?” “Hit something cheap.” advised my spouse. Billy Hose “The hand A MOMENT LATER the car went hiccuping down the road. Then for a mile it went smooth as you please. A feeling of confidence came over me, the same feeling all new drivers get just before the lights go out. I pressed down on the gas. “TA* pistons seem to be knock ing" I said professionally. "Pistons nothing,” said Eleanor. "Those are my knees." Everything went fine until we got to the traffic light in the vil lage. I forgot to press the hickey- madoodle on the gilhooley and the car stalled. The lights changed from green to red, and from red back to green. A cop came over. “What’s the matter?” he asked. “Haven’t we got any colors you like?" After switching the radio on and off, I suddenly pressed the right thing. In the order of the way it happened. I grazed the cop, skid ded through the safety zone, clipped the fender on a bus, and came to rest with my bumper against a fire plug. The cop stalked over, took a handkerchief out of his pocket and dropped it in front of the car. “Lookit, Gene Autry,” he said. “I wana see you do that all over again, and this time pick up the handkerchief with your teeth.” Eleanor gave him the smile that used to make the front cover of “Life." “He’s learning to drive,” she said. "No kidding!" said the cop. "How long is this class going to last? Some other drivers would like to use this road when Sonny Boy gets through with it." “What did I do wrong?” I asked the officer. "Didn’t you hear my whistle? Didn’t ybu see my signal?” he de manded. I shook my head. The cop sighed. “I’d better go home,” he said. “I don’t seem to be doing much good around here.” The Brave of Earth TRONG with the shining shield of their high purpose. Brave with the silver armor of their prayer, We see them face the day, their unseov crosses Almost too heavy for their hearts to bear. Yet uncomplainingly they live the hours. And patiently they face the lengthening years. With none but God, himself, to know their heart break. And none but God to mark their unshed tears. The hurt of earth! How ably they dissemble! They bear with courage grief they never tell: Self-conquerors they go, die strong, the valiant. The brave, who smile and say that all is well. When all awards for courage have been given. Surely the highest will be thtip in Heaven. GRACE NOLL CROWELL W I THREW THE CAR into reverse and backed away from the fire plug. “If you're going to drive much,” yelled the cop, “I’d have the car painted red on one side and blue on the other, so the witnesses will contradict each other.” I had only one more mishap get ting home. I scraped a guy’s fen der. He was pretty nice about it. “It’s my fault,” he said. “I saw you coming. I should have driven into the fields and avoided you.” I MOGENE sat at the kitchen table and listened starry-eyed while Tony read the letter. “Dear Tony and Imogene: I was sorry to hear about Tony’s ill luck down there in Carolina, and know you must be having rather a hard pull. But things are bound to straighten out. Under separate cover I am sending you a turkey tor your Thanksgiving dinner. Please don’t acknowledge its receipt, as your Aunt Sara 3 -Minute might read the letter. She doesn’t Fiction know rm doing this, and I doubt if she’d approve—you know how she felt when you two got married and started out on your wild venture. My love to you both. Uncle Rufus.” Tony pulled off the last wrapper and grinned happily. Within the cardboard box there nestled a hand some, fat turkey; a delicious, palat able turkey. Tony’s mouth watered at sight of it. Accompanying the bird were vegetablea galore, nnta and fruit and a real plnm padding ready for heating. It was a com plete, old-fashioned Thanksgiv ing dinner. At length Imogene stirred. She turned and looked through the win dow and there was something queer about the expression on her face. Tony saw the look and he came and sat down on the table and took her hand In his. Imogene looked at him squarely. “I was thinking, Tony, about the Santrelis. I can’t help it, with this big turkey here in front of us.” Tony’s hand tightened its grip. "Precious,” he said gently, “you’re a dear.” He was silent, then, staring thoughtfully out into the yard. The Santrelis, he reflected, had prob- “Darling,” she said, “I’ve been trying to figure ont one good reason for marrying yon since our wedding day.” ably never had a turkey for Thanks giving. It was doubtful this Thanks giving if they’d have anything to eat. They were poor, dirt poor, and there were eight children in the family. Mr. Santrell was sick half the time; he couldn’t work, even if work were available. Their plight was pitiful. They had been too proud to ask for help; had reached a state of near destitution, when the town discovered their condition. P RESENTLY TONY turned. He said: “Listen, sweet, as far as I’m concerned. I’d like to live through one Thanksgiving without a turkey. I’ve had to eat one every Thanksgiving since 1 can remem- to will be a welcome relief. Besides, Thanksgiving down here doesn’t seem to call for a turk. And we still have the smoked shoulder we'd planned on.” And Imogene smiled In prod- Igioos happiness and began re wrapping Uncle Rufus’s turkey. “Darling,” she said, “I’ve been trying to figure ont one good reason for marrying yon since our wedding day. And now I’ve found it.” Whereupon she kissed him and Tony held her tight in his arms. And so they marched over to the Santrelis and undid the package on Mrs. Santrell’s kitchen table and watched with a curious tugging at their hearts as the eight Santrell children and the two grown-ups stared and stared at the great fat bird. They left very soon after that because Mr. and Mr-. Santrell seemed to have difficulty in finding adequate words to express them selves. They raced up the walk of their little stucco bungalow—and stopped dead still on the veranda. A great package reposed before the front door, and a letter lay atop the package. Tony picked up the letter, stared at the package curiously and tore open the envelope. “Dear Imogene and Tony,” he read. “Your Uncle Rufus wouldn’t like it a bit if he knew I was doing this. You know how he disapproved when you two got married and went away down South. However, I know you must be lonesome and rather dis couraged, and so, under separate cover, I’m sending you a turkey for your Thanksgiving dinner. Please don’t acknowledge its receipt, as your Uncle Rufus might read the letter and I’d never hear the end of it. Love to you both. Aunt Sara.” no PUZZLE LAST WEEK'S ANSWER ACROSS 1. Bounders 5.

But she was terribly grief-stricken and gave him a slip of paper with the word ing she wanted on the stone. Instead of making two separate lines he ran two sentences to gether with not even a comma separating the thoughts so that the epitaph read: “Thou art at rest ‘til we meet again.” _ JAN MINER Brent”, In “Road of Life”, Jan looks forward to the Bay when she can retire to her home in New Hampshire.
