though fall has arrived. The
cucumber vines are dead and the
green beans arc now bug eaten.
However, this year the pole limas
give me basket after basket of

children get our minds on other

has to be hosed down by his
father —that is one way to get him

We seldom see our children but
Kenneth will be coming to Lan

plans to stay with us for three
days. When he comes for supper
tonight, I expect to feed him
