Che Critic-Crest. 1934 Ed gulped and looked at the next in line. This lad stood stiff and dumb, saying never a word. “Who’s this?” he finally asked. ‘Oh, that’s Gordon Thorn- ton,” was the answer. “Gordon’s always at a loss for what to say. He has to be encouraged before he ever will speak his mind. You can tell he’s backward, can’t you ?” “Uh-huh,” Ed agreed, and stared at Gordon because he was ‘“‘so different.” So engrossed was he that he never noticed Ruth Sale until her feet got caught in his pants leg and she giggled loudly. “If a cat should run up a tree, why is an ostrich?” Ruth asked, and skipped gayly away. 3y this time the cobbler was clutching his head madly, but all he could do was stand up and bow as each name was called out, and smile broadly when the old woman sang, “Mr. Ed U. Cayshun, children’”’ Now, all the while that the children were saying “howdy-do,” the Old Woman kept chattering along very rudely, regaling the shoemaker with bits of gossip about the Se nior children. It was really quite interesting, once it was well under way. “You see,” she said, “they’re never lonesome, and there’re always enough of them to cook up some meanness to worry me with. A short while ago, I told them that they might go to Washington—if they behaved themselves, of course. It was Mr. Oglesby’s idea, and then Mr. Abbott and Miss Williams cried to go along. I told the children to take good care of them, and I hear that all three chaperons conducted themselves very well. The children had to speak to them only once or twice. “Well, when they left, Friday morning, I prayed for the best; that was all I could do. And when they returned—oh, Mr. Ed! Were they educated! Larry McWane kissed me goodnight, a thing he’s never done before. “T think, though, that Mr. Oglesby and Miss Williams received more of educational value than my children. It was quite wonderful, Mr. Ed. They had learned to walk in their sleep!” Mr. Ed was duly astonished, and thereby encouraged his guest to plunge into another harangue. “Do you know, once the darlings made up a Hall of Fame, just among them- selves, as it were. You should have seen the blushing that went on. They did a great deal of voting over the affair, and it was all quite thrilling.” From somewhere among the folds of her voluminous draperies, the Old Woman drew forth a huge and much-thumbed picture frame, proudly encircling the document in question, and held it up for Ed’s inspection. Mr. Ed was quite astonished at this imposing array of notables. ‘‘Well,” he said, “maybe you aren’t so very bad, after all. Are there many other famous persons up your sleeve?” (Continued on page 46) 14
