A light sleeper, I awakened to "catch a glimpse of Bob‘s round face and rounder eyes through a crack of the door. That did it He sat up. "NOT JIMMY!‘ he shouted. "THEN wHO IN TIME IS IT?" burglars in this ‘ere house!" He‘d awakened just in time to see Bob _ ‘Tell him to come ‘ereâ€"I wanâ€" na talk to ‘im," he muttered, drowsily. Bob is quite wel} acquainted with the downstairs, but the second floor is, to him, a closed book. There was nothing to do but to find Jimmy‘s room, and to do that he must try all the doors. Of course he couldn‘t. Jimmy‘s room opens out of Grandpa‘s. I gave him the directions, and snugâ€" gled back in my pillow. By that time hubby was half awake. "Jimâ€" my," he drawled, "come here a minute." I shushed him and explained the situation, and we had both settled back to slumber, when the door "Is anything wrong, Bob?" I asked, in a stage whisper, sitting up. 3 _ ‘"I can‘t find Jimmy," he whispâ€" ered back. I shook him gently. "Bill . IT ISN‘T JIMMY!" c Next morning, around 6 a.m., Bo\b, a pal of Jimmy‘s, stopped for him on his way to the golf links. He assumed that Jimmy would want to take up where he left off with caddying before his vacation. Finding the door unâ€" locked, he walked in, and was greeted by the deep silence of a sleeping household. It occurred to him that the neighborly thing to do was to awaken his friend. So hubby and I climbed the stairs, leaving 17â€"yearâ€"old Josie to say goodnight to her date and hook the screen door. ; Our vacation trip had left us somewhat limp. Jimmy, our 15â€" yearâ€"old son had already "hit the hay", and grandpa always goes to bed with the chickens, anyway. I‘d said to her, ‘"Josie, don‘t forâ€" get to hook the screen door. We‘re turning in. We‘re all going to sleep late." It all started with Josie leaving the latch string out. That is, she neglected to hook the front screen door, which is practically the same thing, as we leave the main door open these hot nights. when night is done, _ _ Â¥ To join in song together with the This union of two opposites as one Creates in him the bright eternal n.'g prompts this lowly man, night, 5 The invocation of the dawn, with Of fleecy cherub clouds in pink The Shepherd‘s Song The hush of mating prayers the shepherd knows, The benediction of the fading Thursday, Sept. 16, 1948 "Bill," I hissed, "it isn‘t Jimâ€" North Shore Florist and Landscape Service Only Josie forgot about the 190 Gresawoed Aveave Deents and Shollows who took .over on Sunday, Sept. 12, were Mrs. John B.

He keeps me awake." I reassured her. "Might as well stay up, now," she .muttered, "I‘m wide awake." So was I. I arose and dressed. A bit later the whole family was assembled in the kitchen, parâ€" taking of eggs, bacon and coffee. Except Jimmy. Jimmy was still in bed, dead to the world, gently sawing wood. I glanced up at the kitchen elock. It was just 6:45. buffed, stumped away, muttering something _ about "cowpasture pool", and vowing that he, for one, didn‘t know one end of a caddy from the other, and didn‘t want to, nuther.
