rpOLKS who used to laugh at the
expression, “I don't care what
you say about toe, bat spell my
name right!" just, couldn’t forsee
the fact that it’s almost like money
in the bank whan you gal your
name in print.
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.

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.

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
