One of the counties in Maryland adjoining the District of Columbia is all excited over a â€"wild man who roams the woods and frightens women and children. Of course we don‘t know anything about it, but it‘s our guess that what made him wild was driving into the national capital and trying to find a parking space. The census will be taken next year and it‘s our judgment that the cenâ€" sus takers are going to find that most of the women are younger than they were ten years ago.
