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.”

chiseled the epitaph on her late

Instead of making two separate
lines he ran two sentences to
