The following day found me in a distressing predicament: I could hardly see or breathe because my eyes and nose were swollen ahnost shut. PAULINE FRANCES CHUBB Route 4 Lancaster, Pa.

In 1946 the Susquehanna River overflowed its banks. It was not a matter of casual con- cern for us, however, because we lived on an island in the midst of the Susquehanna and Penns Creek. Normally our island was about five miles long and about one-half mile wide, but it shrank to a scant acre during the ilood. We were stranded for about a week.

One day when I was three years old my brother and I were following a hay loader through the Held. This mechanical miracle absorbed the complete attention of the two boys. We could not understand how such a simple-looking contraption could pull all that hay to the top of the wagon. However, in our close concentration we neglected to get out of the way of the loader and the next thing we knew we were going up with the hay. We reached the top safely and had a nice ride.
