NIOANNI-I--Blll now she spends all her time flying her rocket ship over the back fence. EDDIE-Say jo . . . don't you have time to go see Curtis and Buzz at their Mary Mary, Quite Contrary Flower Nursery. Their time is quite taken up because they are so busy raising their baby pansies and sweet XVilliams according to Psychology booklets. IOANNI-I-NU, I'm afraid I haven't time. l promised Christine I'd go to hear her prize debating team.
