Creative riting MY GREATEST DISLIKE I have always disliked theme-writing and I think I always shall. In the first place, I haven't the gift of gab which is needed in writing. Without this skill, it is almost impossible to compose an interesting or humorous essay. Because of my deficiency, I sit for hours trying to figure out how to say a thing which a gifted person could say in two seconds. As for punctuation, I'm always placing commas in the wrong places or omitting them en- tirely. After all, what does punctuation mean to a theme if the idea is all there? A theme IS just as funny or just as dry in spite of all periods, commas, or exclamation marks. Lastly, I have the greatest difficulty in writing a conclusion to my essay. I believe that if I have said all that I want to say, I should stop! But I puzzle a long time before I finally dash down a few more meaningless words. No matter how much effort I put into my themes, I shall never be a writer. VIRGINIA JULIAN MY BIGGEST MISTAKE Everyone knows how spring affects the young man's fancy. The birds, the bees, the fresh green grass, the bright, warm sun and gentle spring breezes all make a walk with one's best girl a most delightful occasion. After I had called for my current interest in life, we decided upon a hike through some fields and meadows which proved to be slightly damp as a result of recent spring rains. Presently, we arrived at an especially marshy spot. Here some cows had trampled the ground into a mire almost impassable for one with ordinary shoes. XVhat luck! Off came my moccasins and socks. Then, gently, I lifted my dream and proceeded to wade the width of that all too short patch of muddy ground. Having deposited safely my light burden, I trotted carelessly back for my socks and moccasins. Suddenly, I heard a ripping sound and felt a sharp stab of pain in the arch of my right foot. A quick look showed me blood pouring from a deep, jagged wound. I had run on a piece of broken glass! The little lady ran for help while I did what I could for the gash. NVhen my father and a friend finally came, they had to carry me several hundred yards to a car. It was several weeks before I could walk on my bad foot. I have learned my lesson. This gallantry stuff is not for me. Should I encounter like circumstances in the future, the lady will do her own walking around any obstruction encount- ered-AND MY SHOES WILL STAY GN ! ! !
