LIFE Life, a sphere [or effort grand; A ratnomless sea without a shore; An Hour-glass with wasting sand; A realm of mystery to explore. Vance Wilkinson, Jr. a t 7x71-1-1 r t n ' - t AUN 1 CHLOh (An exercise in realism) In a three-room, not-too-clean shack wedgea in between two of Tennessee s middle-sized mountains, hves Aunt Chloe. She has Uved here for only two or three P months, so nobody seems to know who she is or where she came from. We don ' t know exactly how old she is, except that she is old enough to claim an Old Age Pension. She wears loose-fitting, print dresses which suggest that she has barely enough energy to lift her arms above her head and let the garment fall to where it finally hangs, limply, over her large body. Her hair is short, straight, and grey. She has coarse features and a dark mole on one cheek, nearly concealed by a grey, bristly trace of beard. Shoes are not in her wardrobe. Out in back of the hut is a field where she raises enough corn and tobacco for her own use. At regular intervals she travels the fourteen miles to town to buy bales of cotton which she spins into thread. W e suppose that she must use her pension for this, because there isn ' t much money around here. Like all Tennessee mountaineers, she lives on ham, beans, and corn. She gets the ham Irom neighbors. In a box under the bed she has a collection of variously patterned quilts which she has made, but refuses to use. Among them is her own original pattern, The Rattlesnake, plus several pairs of home-knit socks. There is something about the house that subtly suggests the lack of one modern convenience- — a bath. She is hospitable, though uncommunicative, and all the small children in the neighbor- hood like to go there. The only thing not in keeping with her character is that she is so afraid to stay alone that she pays a girl from a family of twelve across the road to stay with her nights. All day long she spins, works in the field, or cooks, taking time out only to spit. Betty Murnan STEEL BIRD j- Look at that giant steel bird, its immense shiny wings, and huge blunt beak. See how it stares at you with its mournful bulging eyes. Listen to its angry roar as it strains to be under way. Carrying passengers to distant cities and lands. Its flying power is controlled by a crew of men. When it becomes rather angry and burns a bearing. It has to be doctored and repaired by men. When it becomes very enraged, it takes its revenge. Plunging to earth, freeing itself from slavery. Doris Greek
