They wrs just runty and no-'count at tall. One day he sez to me he sez, 'Abner, I guess as how yew hed better to take keer o' the gynrden this yeer. They jest sin't no sense in me e tryin' ag1n.'W Nwel, naow, yew know, son, I knowed wut wus the metter with them vegytables. It weren't their fault they eudn't grow. The soil jest wesn't no good. I made up my mind that I'd fix it up swell. I got e lot of stuff together end mixed it up real well and spread it all over the ground. And yew know -------------- W WEh? Oh, no, I cein't remember wut wus in that stuff I mixed up. Yew see I'm purty old and my mem'ry is kind of dull-like. Wal, as I was e sayin', I planted a lot of vegyteble seeds of all kinds. Within two days them vegy- tables were as big as they gen'e1ly is in six weeks. Purty soon they were so big that I begun to get worried. I busted two shovel handles e tryin' to dig me some per- taters. Finally I borried the steam-shovel from the ce- ment-plant and dug all my vegytebles that growed under the ground. I didn't know wut to do with 'em, so I cut 'em inter pieces with an cross-cut saw and gave ever'body in town some. My lettuce and cabbages were so big thet they hed to be cut with a scythe. I had to sew each leaf off sepfrftely and then out them into smaller pieces so they cud be used. And say! my strawberries, they was so big thft they looked like greet big apples. Them there things were only pert of wut I growed that year. I don't went yew to be too astounded neow, so I'l1 tell yew fbout my other vegytebles sum other time. Nwhat? 0h,no,sir, I certinly d1dn't raise any gay- arden like that agin.n Wwhy, Wal naow yew know, son, I'm kinder ashamed to tell yew this. I was 17 that year and nat'al1y strong and healthy, but yew know it plumb tired me out so much a packin' water to them vegytebles that I ain't never been able to do a lick o' hard work since, and me a 101 years old last Setidy.N --Helen Dorman, '37 ..

ll'-cuuan-anv-nqpuncaunqounounu-.g.-....,, I D0 DESTISE TFE DARK s a kid I always was awful skared of the dark. J!- I always went to bed about dusk and covered up 3 my head and ears so I wou1dn't see the dark when it come. I took my cat t'bed with me too 'cause I jest cou1dn't go up them stairs by meself. when I growed up I never got over it muchg I jest kept on a 'bein a':kared of the dark. when I was twenty-two years old I married the pertiest gal in the country: Symanthy Green was her NJohn Henry.' One day after we'd been married fer about ten years, it came out in the news-paper that we was a goin to have a T-total eclipse of the sun the comin Wednesday. On Wednesday I was party sickg I'd been outtin wood and I dedn't want to be cousht out there in them woods with no eclipse of no sun. But Symanthy jest got hold of my ear and pulled me out of that bed and sent me up in them woods to work. She wouldn't even let me take me lantern along with me. Long about noon here come something and jest clear civered up the sun. I begin to run tords home jest as fast as I cud go. The owls began to hoot and bears and things begin to chase after me. Symanthy 'ud sure be ashambed of herself when she found me bones with the meat all ett off. I fell right in couldn't get out. head above water since Ma used to listen to me prayers at night before I went to bed. I was still runin when all at once .a hole full of weterg I was so skared I I never was very 'ligious but I kept me and begin to pray as I had never prayed I had jest D-sided that the world was comin to 1t's end when the sun come out as bright as ever. Well I found meself in Symanthy's fish pond. I clum out and crawled up on the front steps and stayed sot until my knees got thru wigglin. I sure do despise T-total eclipses --Hazel Kendall, '38 117 4 s-s-a-w-s-g-e-a-was-4-Q-t-a-spans-s s 4 w a s w s e a s s s 'il ms wk in I Pk lp w I 924 ,: s at :je Pk if ft: '14 :ge wk at ak It lk IP It It vb n F3 te 41 if wk ar wk 33 i rk if Ik '44 is :ge 'if af: tif 49'7!'-791--N'4!'4!'454l ll'44''l'-!!-42-'N'-N lf-'N 32'4!-'R-N-?!--!!--5!-43-'If'-T!--I!-if--21-Nix' 4 v
