Mo Goodlme ’41 A FRANTIC SEARCH One summer a few years ago while our family was enjoying camp life on the shoi ' e of a lake in the Maine v oods, something occurred vdiich caused us to lose a night’s sleep. When resdy to retire, my mother went over to look at my brother, who had gone to bed several hours before � Alas, the cot was empty i Because of his habit of walking in his sleep, my parents were greatly alarmed, fearing he might have fallen into the lake, or that he night have wandered into the wood.s« A frantic search of the lake shore and the v oods, and repeated call- ing brought no resiilto Worried, inquiries at the few camps in back of our tent--still no relief to our fears. In despair and anxiety, v e returned to the tent, racking our minds as to v hat to do next, V hen a scraping noise startled our taut nerves, we rushed into the tent to investigate. The cot v ' as still empty, and nothing could be found to explain the noise. With hearts racing, and imagination running wild, v e gazed at each other perplexec.ly. Finally, my moth- er lifted the blanket from behind the empty cot, ' There was the missing boyi He had rolled off the cot in his sleep, and a blanket had fallen over him. In the darkness, and due to the frenzy that seized my parents upon not finding him on the cot, lie had not been noticed in this hidden position. The torturing suspense of the hunt over, peace settled once more on the woodland scene as, scoffing at our unnecessary alarm, we gratefully retired for the night. R.

Thoroughly frightened, I hesitated to go to the • door. Mustering all my courage, I tiptoed to the window, peered ou.t, and saw the shape of a stranger standing at the door. V liat would any- one want at this time of night? Had someone found out I was here ' I . 4 • ■; ' r ' !• • t .1 .f :; ■ “X 7 • . •‘• ' r .1 ■■• o i . •X a ■ ■,. ? . yi:’- alono? Questions, like these raced through my mind,. Recollections of front pa e murc ' .er stories terrorized me and for a moment para- lyzed all action. Finally, I shouted to him through the window and asked him his object, ”Is anyone else at home?” He yelled, ”Yes, my watchdog is with me,” I replied, trying to subdue the terror that griproed me. The knowledge that there was a . loaded gun in the house was the only comforting thought my brain could ac- quire • He asked this question over and over again and at last, aj - parently convinced, left, V hen the sound of his retreating foot- steps d.ied av ay, I went back to bed still ' stiff enedbv ith fear, yet ready to spring up at the slightest sound. However, the rest of the night passed peacefully, and at last, after what seemed at least two hours, I fell into a fitfull sleep. Early the next morning, I rose and turned, on the radio. To my amazement, I heard that an escaped inmate of the local insane asy- lum, who had been prowling around in our neighborhood, had been ap- prehended, Vifith a sigh of relief, I sat down to breakfast, rather please with myself that I had been so fearless.

They wore very happy in their little home until Dan Mac- Carthy, Senior, was stricken wi th appendicitis and died. This was a terrible shock for Mrs. MacCarthy and her son Dan, for it meant Mrs. MacCarthy would have to go to work; and Dan would have to go to kindergarten while his mother was at work, for Dan vns only four. Mrs. MacCarthy found work as a counter girl in one of the lo- cal stores. The pay was small; but, by caroful planning she waa able to support herself and son. She loved her son dearly and lav- ished upon him all the things her small earnings could buy. Whon at work or talking with any of her noighbors, she constantly kept telling hov wonderful her son was. Twonty years passed, and Mrs. MacCarthy was still praising her son, a young man of tv onty fo ir® Sho thought her son moro wondor- ful than any of tho other local boys and usod to talk continuously about him with Mrs Casoy, tlio woman y ho had looked after Dan aftor ho got home from kindergarten and later whon ho got home from school. Mrs. Casey was tho wife of tho to”m s constable, James Casoy. One evening when Mrs. Casey was talking with her husband, she asked ’Jim, do you know v hat kind of position Danny MacCarthy has? He must have a good one if he can afford to buy a nev car and havo Mrs. MacCarthy stop vo rklng.” My dear, said Mr. Casoy, looking his wife straight In tho eye, .Can you keep a secret and not lot it out till the tlmo coi ' .os? Why, of course, James, v hat is it? asked Mrs. Casoy all ex- cited. Dan MacCarthy isn t working; that s why he has never told his mother where ho s vd rking. Isn� t worklngi interrupted Mrs. Casoy, Then hov has ho boon getting all his monoy? Well, speko tho constable, Mrs. MacCarthy, tho poor old coul, spoiled Dan so much that ho thought ho could have whatever ho wanted no matter how ho got it ' , consequently, Dan has taken what ho thinks is tho oasiost way to or.rn a living, --by thieving. Thlovln4 exclaimed tho shocked Mrs. Casoy, Thon why havon t you arrested him? Poor Mrs. MacCarthy, it would kill her to Imow her son, whom sho has adored since ho was a baby, is a thief, and supporting her on tho monoy ho steals. • ' I knov it, said James Casey, but I won’t h ve to tell hen yet for we haven’t boon able to prove he’s done it. He doesn’t leave fingerprints, and nobody has caught him in the act, so we can’t convict him yot, Well, then how do you kno ; ho is doing it? as];od Mrs. Casey, Whore each of the robe rios occurred, his car was soon parked; besides, how else can you accoiuit for his sudden ’wealth? He ' s not employed anywhere around hji-o, foi wo ' vc invos tigatod. Ho has an alibi of working out of to ' n but won’t toll us whoro,, Just then tho tolophono rang. Mrs, Casey ansv;orcd it tolling Mr, Casoy that ho was wanted at onco do’.vn at tho di‘ug storo, that it had boon robbed and the thief had boon caught, Ohi James, said Mrs, Casey as her husband was nutting on his things, If it’s Dan, will you let me knov; before going to Mrs, Mac- Car thy so I can go with you? I think It would bo easier on her if I told hor, Suro, ropliod Mr, Casey, I think so too. Women con alv;ays toll things the best, I hox,)o it : ' sn ' t Dan for his mother ' s sake though. Well, good bye. for nov-, Cty dear. I ' ll lot you knov; what happens as soon as I can, About an hour lator, James Casey came back homo and said to his wife, It was Dan all right. Gosh, I hate to think how badly his mother will fool. His trial will come up Saturday; he ' ll be convicted all right because tho ovldciico against him is too strong, 1 sort of v;ish v e didn’t have to toll Mrs. Mac Carthy, for I h afraid it will kill her, but 1 suppose we might as v ell go and get it over with. Wait until I get my hat and coat though, will you? Yes, but hurry, the quicker we get it over the less woH have to worry, replied the constable. Five minutes later, they v;oro met at the door of iirs Mac- Carthy’s house by Doctor Andrews who asked them to come In and sit down, I have some bad nov s for you, spoke tho doctor after a long hesitation, I know you Lave both boon very friondly with Mrs, Mac- Car thy, and I hate to broak the ncv;s to you, Sho had a shock in the early evening and died just a few minutes ago, I’m sorry to hear that in one rospoct, doctor, and in another I’m lad, spoke tho constable, We came over to tell Mrs,J4acCar- they 3ome bad nows about hor son.

Well, Johnny, she said coldly, do you realize you are a half an hour late? Me? murmured Johnny in a low voice. Oh, no, replied Miss Lane, sarcastically. I was only talking to myself. Well, don ' t stand there looking so dazed. Come in. Johnny walked in very reluctantly and sat dovm at the piano. Now, Miss Lane said in an icy tone, where is your music? My music?

Among the other traits that people do not 31ke in their friends are monopolizing the conversation, bra- ging about possessions, be- littling someone’s accomplishments, being tco blunt and frank, in- terrupting, always trying to tell a better story than the other fellov;, and saying unc .mini 5.::ient ary things about people, Si .nce there is no one dao wirhes to be unpopular, it 3s sugges- ted ths.t v e all take time to see if we are guilty of any of thesit I i I i j 1 f 1 i jl ij j failln ;s that inifjht nakc ’.s uir popular.
