And your spelling, too. A swell Presi- dent you'll make. You didn’t even spell “America” right.” Eph was indignant. “I don’t rec- kon to be stern, son, but remember it was me and illiterates like me that give you a country to put a name on. There wuz a time when a spellin’ book was important only ‘cause it made good waddin’ for a musket. I don’t rec’lect a solitary Master of Arts at Valley Forge.” hip “WHAT ARE you made up for?” we inquired. Eph brightened. “These is all buryin’ clothes,” he said. Figgered that backwoods ‘‘ongsom”, as the Frenchies "say, wasn’t fit for a candidate for the Presidency. So I borrowed these from some of the boys. These is ‘Bijah Smithers pantaloons.

RICHARDS MARKET from Philadelphia to bury him in. ‘Course these fellows all died over a period of time, so the clothes ain’t what you'd call representative of any one generation, but we thought it'd make me look a little more dignified durin’ the campaign.” “Take them back,” we advised. “We're bound to lose if you sashay around looking like that.” “All right,” he sighed. “Anyway, I feel better in the other clothes.” “Now,” we proceeded, “what's this about a press conference, and don’t forget that I'm busy.” Eph bit off a hunk of plug, la- bored it thoughtfully for a spell and then stowed it in his cheek. “Wal,” he began, “I reckon if Will- kie and Roosevelt can have press conferences I can. You ask me questions and I'll. make statements. This here is now a press conference. Let ‘er fly, son.” —Q— RESIGNED, WE looked about for inspiration. There was a screamer on a newspaper on the desk. It said “Willkie For Aid To Britain.” Zuid “What,” we asked, “is your atti- tude on the war?’ Eph’s jaws moved rhythmically as he pondered the question. ‘Pus- sonally, son,” he said, at last, “I had a bellyful of war in “78.” “You're for peace, then, I take it “Who ain’t, son? Did you ever run across a candidate who wasn’t 2” “Would you fight to save demo- craecy.?” Eph grinned. “I fit to get demo- cracy, son, so I suppose I'd fight again. All us Americans like fight- in’. Only, like I told you afore, get it out of your noggin that fightin’ alone will save democracy. Funny, how everybody’s so proud of demo- cracy, now that they hear it’s likely to be yanked out from under ‘em. —_—— “YOU KNOW, son, democracy has taken a lot of punishment in this country in the last 75 years, right from its own folks. If it wasn’t the best way to live, it'd never stood up under some of the dead weight it’s been carryin’ right here in the U. S. A. I figger most people right now are concerned more with sav- in’ their own bank accounts and houses and political jobs than they are with savin’ democracy. Most on ‘em, anyway. “Democracy is like a candle, son, SHAWANESE HARVEY’S LAKE A complete FREE WORLD'S FAIR TICKETS WEEKLY seventeen stellar attractions at the Fair as well as admission and parking tickets - =~ book admitting two persons to This Week's Winner—Mrs. Roger Howell, Harvey's Lake D’jever notice how real purty the flame is? straight and white and slim, then after a while it melts crooked and | the tallow runs down its side and it gits lumpy and little. But the flame still burns bright and purty. “After a while that old candle melts all away, but somebody comes along with a fine new candle and lights it from the old flame. That's the way it is with democracy. That's the way it is with everything that’s right. It never dies. Things change. The candles melt away. But the flame’s still there, burnin’ bright and clear and brave and fine, real purty like. “The Big Wind from Berlin may make the flame jump and flicker just a mite, but there ain’t no hu- man lungs can blow that flame out. But then, you got to be at least 200 years old to know that. You couldn’t expect a smart, young fel- ler like Mister Hitler to know about it” Lo WE LOOKED at Eph with respect. It was quiet. Finally we said, “That may be true, Eph, but don’t you think it’s time we should be a little scared about the threats against us?” Eph scratched his leathery cheek with a long finger. “Glad you men- tioned that, son. There is one guy we got to watch pretty close.” “Who's that?” We waited, ten- sely. Eph’s eyes twinkled. ‘Fu Man- chu,” he said, and then he disap- peared.
