These days we have more than a few ex-communists paying taxes on income they received fronr such revealing articles as "Why I Joined ..." and "Why I quit." It’s now fashion for the con demned prisoner to spend long hours in the death cell preparing a potential best-seller outlining the sordid and fateful events which brought him there. Vacation areas are filled with ex-racketeers who paid their debt to society and now have retired on bank accounts ac quired through publications of such articles as "A Million Crooked Dol lars—Made and Loot" Notoriety makes good background for successful "trua" stories, but favorable publicity has Its rewards, too. lha g«qr who ■warn the Eng lish Channel picked up plenty of sheckles for his magazine article, "Why I Made It" The fellow who failed the swim dM all right too, with his "Why I Didn’t Make It" An incident in a small town not long ago Illustrated the fact that you get to be a public figure when your name is "written up" in the paper. A citizen had tried long and hard to get someone to listen to his views on farm planting quotas, but no one would lend an ear. Prob ably mad at himself and toe whole world, this felloe' stood op the Court House step., and plastered the building with slightly ancient eggs. He ended up with some heavy fines, but ha got his name into print, along with some direct quotes giving his views on proposed farm measures.' > His unorthodox but successful method is as amusing as the wide spread belief that a no-hit pitcher or a .400 slugger is automatically an expert on cigarettes, cereals and candy bars.

Ml BY THS 0LB TIMERS From Agnes Just Reid, Firth, Idaho: I remember when the only form of social contact with our neighbors was called a “surprise party.” Neighbors were far apart and roads were bad so everyone went to the home of the victim and took plenty of food and extra bedding so if the merry making lasted until daylight no one was inconvenienced —that is, no one but the hostess. Once there was a hostess that surely merited sympathy. A new family had moved into toe neigh borhood and her husband was afraid the life might be too hard for bis wife so he promoted a party for her. Naturally the largest home was se lected for when an the children were included, as well as the hired men and hired girls, there were usually about a hundred guests. I can see them yet as they filed in . . . big folks, little folks . . . some of them having driven great dis tances in sleds and toe men com ing into toe warm room reaching to pull icicles off their beards. As-soon as toe crowd seemed all there the musicians began to "tune up" and everyone wanted to dance. The living room was about twenty by twenty and covered, wall to wall, with rug carpet generously padded with straw. Pocket knives came out and the guests dropped to their knees. In twenty minutes the carpet was loosened on all sides, a win dow was openeef and out went the carpet and straw in a cloud of dust . . . and the dancing began. (Bead eMirlbatlMs U Tbe OM Timer, Cemmutt lea, Fraakfert. Keataeky.) ■an —„ ntonntosiRtoto*pnnminnMksi L UCRETIA Merrill, peacefully napping on the front porch of "Four Pines", her home on toe edge of MUledgeville, awoke with a start as the front gate clicked noisily. A shade of annoyance crossed her usually placid brow at recognizing Minerva Brown, a well-meaning soul, but decidedly Irritating at times. "Thought you’d be to borne," remarked the caller as she mount ed the porch steps. *T usually am." was the quiet response. "Huh! I do wish you lived nearer the center o’ town. Lucre- tia!” declared Minerva as she sank into a chair. "Then I could drop in oftener." ' *T like it here. It’s been my home for a .long, long time now, as you know." Minerva rocked in silence for a half-moment; then demanded: "Just how long is it, Taicretia. since you were widdered?" "Oh. symetolng over a year now." "My, An* you livin’ alone in this big house ever since! High time you sold it an* took rooms down town where a body wouldn’t have to traipse all over creation to drop in on you! You’ve got no one to talk to—way out here!** "I’ve got Mittens!" Mittens was a patrician Maltese cat who at that moment ainbled into view, sniffed briefly at Min- erva’s gown,—then turned and jumped into toe lap at her mis tress. "Nonsense! You toke my advice, Lncretia, an* get rid of ‘Four Pineal'" *TR think ft over. It does get kind o’ lonesome, at times, PH admit" *T should think so!—Well, PH Bfe namin' along. I want to see Julia Kittredge afore I do my marketin’." LacreHa watched the other as she went down the rose-bordered path and so out toe gateway, toe gate closing behind her with a sharp click. She was glad toa hadn’t stayed any longer. For some little tone she sat thinking deeply, the while Mittens purred like a tea-kettle. “Hm! There’s something in what Min erva says;—yes. there’s some truth in it Guess m have to do something about it" It was several days before Min erva again was in the neighbor^ hood of "Four Pines" her brows shot up when she saw a large sign on the lawn, which bore toe following legend in letters easily 'read at a distance:— •‘THIS HOUSE FOR SALE. INQUIRE WITHIN! NO AGENTS." Quickening her pace Minerva lost no tone in gaining the porch on which, as usual, her friend was seated.- "Wen, weUI I see as you took my advice, Lucretia! Any inquir ers yet?" "Several of ’em. Mostly strang ers from other towns. They seem to like this place." "No doubt But you’ll be a lot better off, Lucretia, with just a couple o* rooms to look after. Well,. I can’t stop a minute, but I’D be seeing you next week." She did,—but very briefly. Smil ing pleasantly, and "dressed to kill”, as-the gossipy Minerva put it to a friend later on; Lucretia was standing before toe gate. She was evidently going somewhere. And the sign was no longer to be seen on the clipped lawn. "You sold toe place, Lucretia?" was toe eager inquiry. , "No! I haven’t; and what’s more, I never did intend to sell it. Why, I wouldn’t leave *Four Pines’ for anything in the world! "Land o* Liberty! You "Just so. Jim Kimball, retired banker of Winchester and an o^d friend of my late husband’s, dropped in one day last week; and —well, we’re going to be married this afternoon over in Winchester % V and torn go west for our honey moon in his Cadillac. ’
