* |Mm I I Rosebud is eight, and the most I beautiful shude of caramel fudge. I * ,? h, i loving Mammy and Pappy .hft is known, on approximately uf^Kernate days, as "Angel" and "You devil child". It was on her devil-I kHchtld days that Rosebud tied the l^^lkoots in the shirts that Mammy had I 2Htaken in for washing, and poured the ^ whole of the vanilla bottle into the I ^ lainb stew, just, she said later I through bitter tears, to "flavor it up I |(J?fome ange] days Rosebud is I equally imaginative even if a more ^ restful occupant of the little shack down on Vinegar Hill. Once when Mammy was out J domg day worn, Rosebud got a wave of cleaning fever and scoured every pot and pan In the kitchen so that they literally glistened. Another day, left alone, she tidied up Mammy's and Pappy's room to such 4 point of apple-pie order that it was a week before Pappy could find an undershirt. Rosebud is a great reader of the newspapers. Mammy and Pappy don't take one, but there are plenty of perfec tly good newspapers blowing round Vinegar Hill. It was out of one of them that Itosebud got her idea for spending the ten cents the Bunny had put under her pillow the night her tooth came out. After breakfast Rosebud disappeared down the Hill and reappeared soon after with a beautiful ten-cent War Stamp pasted firmly into a brand-new book with neat little squares for more stamps. She displayed her investment to Mammy. "I declare you're an angel child," Mammy said. Rosebud went on sitting on the kitchen floor staring with large brown eyes at the empty squares in her book. From time to time she took hold of one or another of her teeth and wiggled it, gently. Mammv was engrossed in a particularly big washing. Rosebud was as quiet as a mouse and Mammy forgot about her until, coming in irmii tlie-.yardL. with, iier arms iulL of dry sheets, she encountered her child with a large hammer in her hand. Scenting the devil in her angel child, Mammy shouted at her, "Rosebud! Come yere with that hammer! What you planning on doing?" But what was done was done. In Rosebud's other hand was another tooth. Her mouth was stretched in a broad if slightly bloody smile. "I ain't doing nothing,. Mammy," she said. "I'm just filling up my stamp book." (Story from an actual report in the files of the Treasury Department.) Say yes. Take your change in War Stamps. Your investment in War I?onds today will save a payday far morrow. U. S.
