THE CHRONICLE 65 of nature to show that the region is ever inhabited are a broad runway back in the woods and my motor cruiser an- chored in a little bay up the beach. Near the runway there is a good sized, well equipped workshop and han- gar including a self starting gasoline generator that supplies electricity for the hangar, shop and house. The house itself is quiet and restful. The light entering it has been filtered through the firs and is soft to the eyes. Though the generator supplies electric- ity for all the lights in the house, I pre- fer to use the kerosene lamps except for reading. In the cellar I keep enough food to last me a year. The kitchen is equipped with all the modern contrap- tions so that I will not be wasting a lot of my time getting my meals. I have a refrigerator, and a dishwasher. CI hate to wash dishes.l In my retreat from civilization I can do as I wish: rest, climb the mountains to the rear, swim in the ocean at my door, work in my shop, and in general, let the rest of the world go its merry way. If I become curious as to which way it is going, I can step into my ra- dio room, switch on an all wave radio receiver, and by use of antennas placed high on the mountain, I can listen to any station in the world. If I long for conversation, I sit down at a two way radio and talk to fellow men the world over. When tired of being a modern hermit, I hop into my personal plane and fly back into this mixed up world of truth and hooey, always knowing that when- ever my brain grows tired of this won- derful place, I can retreat. In case you want to know where to lind this heaven on earth, you are out of luck. Do you think I would have you running in and out? Not on your life. That would be like letting the hu- man race build a tower to reach heaven. -James Puifer Rip Van Winkle Up in the Catskill Mountains high Rip Van Winkle lay down with a sigh. And when he awoke twenty years later, He stepped on his beard and fell in a crater. When he went down into town, Everyone laughed and called him a clown. He stopped at the Inn But spied none of his kin, And then came his daughter Who saved him from slaughter. With her, he went home But continued to roam. -Thomas Verrill skiing Skiing is a lot of fun To someone who knows how 'tis done. As I saw others speed down the hill, I thought 'twas easy to avoid a spill. I strapped my skis upon my feet And said that I would not be beat. I started down like a bird so free Until I hit that gnarled old tree. I thought 'twould be the death of me, But I'm still here as you can see. I may forget the great big hill, But I'll never forget the doctor's bill. As I lay home in a big soft bed, With yards of bandage on my head, I thought I'd burn my skis for fun To prove my skiing days were done. -Stephen Hicks Wild Daisies of Maine Down in the valley, Church bells ring, To wake the daisies, To tell them it's spring Wild daisies of Maine, All pretty and white, Are blooming again, Oh, what a sight! Wild daisies of Maine, Blooming in the spring. One never could wish A more beautiful thing. Wild daisies of Maine By the roadside grow, Nodding their heads, As the tourists go. -Jeraldine Curtis
