Eph’s smile faded. “Ain’t it all
right, son?”
“It definitely aint,” we declared.
“And watch your grammar. 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.”

“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. He never wore ‘em ‘til
he died. The coat’s a mite small. Fer-
get the feller’s name that owned it.

‘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.

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-

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.
But as he was fading away it
looked as if he lifted his thumb to
the tip of his nose and wiggled his
fingers impertinently. The last
thing to go was his big, wide grin.
