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. Treasury Department
