My Respects to
VanWert, Ohio
A phone call came in the other
day from a new family in the
Dallas area. Someone was
reading The Dallas Post and
stumbled into this column long
enough to see the name of the
former hometown and wonder-
ed how this writer knew any-
thing about Wheaton P. Webb.
I'm wondering what Wheaton
will say when someone from the
Kiwanis Club of that town tells
him he got into print in Pennsyl-
~vania!
Perhaps I should have had a
copyright on that oxskull in the
tenth chapter of his new book,
“The Twelve Labors of Wim-
pole Stout.” More to the point
. maybe I should have had the
method patented which I used to
make this skull turn out to be
sure-fire way to scare the wits
out of The Howly Three!
Well anyway, I'm glad to say
hello through this column of the
lucky newcomers to Dallas area
who had the good luck to be ac-
quainted with the Rev. Wheaton
Phillips Webb of Van Wert,
Ohio.
Meanwhile some of you
readers might either buy the
book published by the Abington
Press of Nashville, Tenn., or
maybe ask you local library to
get it on its shelves.
A Nightime Visitor
One dark night recently,
Catherine heard Tuffy making a
racket on the front porch as if he
was tangled up with his rope or
the porch swing or all three. She
went out and discovered a very
meek looking young opossum
huddled on the—edge of the
swing. Tuffy did not have the
nerve to attack a thing he didn’t
know too much about. We got
Tuffy into the house so possum
could get away without fear.
It was good that the possum
was not a porcupine. I’ve heard
terrible things happening to
dogs through too close a curios-
ity to the animated pin cushion.
And one time Tuffy found out to
his sorrow what happens when
you want to come near a skunk!
Why Does Tuffy Howl?
{Two things will make Tuffy
stick his nose toward. the sky
and howl. One is when Cather-
ine or I make anything we call
music of a personal nature. By
personal nature I mean by our
own performance. Tuffy can
listen to actors who bellow and
prima donnas who sing on TV or
radio. He seems not to know it.
But if I begin to toot my recor-
der, or Catherine begins to
loosen up her vocal cords with a
warbling of Mozart's Alleluia or
something by Bach, Tuffy just
about throws his own high tones
to the heavens above. It’s
awful!
~. Or it may be there’s some
“stranger in the community—I
don’t know how far off, whom he
wants to meet and fall in love
with. He sends out a long-
drawn-out howl to the sky and
will keep it up way into the
night, scratching to come in for
a few minutes only to whine to
go out— at one, or two, or three
or four or five o’clock in the
morning and Catherine patters
learn to care
for plants
Winter is here—And chances
are you'll be buying new plants
for your home or trying to
revive your old ones. To grow
nice plants, it’s important to
understand the culture of plants
removed from their native ha-
bitat and grown in the confines
of human dwellings.
Plants help create a pleasing
home atmosphere and provide
relaxation for the person caring
for them. Important to their
care is providing an en-
vironment as natural as
possible for their culture.
The Pennsylvania State Uni-
versity offers a correspondence
course designed to teach good
herticultural practices in over
200 plants’ suitable to growing
indoors. Discussion in the
eleven lesson course includes:
propagation; care; containers;
selection; forcing bulbs; plants
for full or semi-full sun; and
plants needing greenhouse con-
ditions.
Neglect and lack of know-how
can cause plants to fail at
achieving their ornamental
purposes. To help you avoid
house plant failure, send $4.65 to

sity Park, 16802. Make check or

My Typewriter Talks
by the Rev. Charles H. Gilbert
downstairs to let him in. Only
for a few minutes is this satis-
factory. Then right close at her
ear he begins to cry like a baby
and up she gets to let him out,
perhaps to howl at three, or
seven or eight!
His unrequited love subsides
after a couple of weeks of this
sort of thing. Then he eats food
like anybody. And sleeps in
peace. So do we!
Africa Travels
No we don’t have to go across
the seas to get acquainted with
Africa. All we have to do—when
convenient—is to load our pro-
jection screen, projector, slides,
a wooden drum, a fancy dress, a
few extra curios into the car,
and take Dottie to some dated
community where she tells the
gathered people something they
have heard about in The Gilbert
Story with Jots from Dot. The
people who come out to see and
hear are some who have a fin-
ancial stake in what’s going on
over there in Central Congo. She
tells stories, gives her views of
things, shows pictures. One
picture shows her listening in-
tently to her radio when the as-
tronauts headed out for the
moon—and landed there. But
what this particular crowd of
black people was most interest-
ed in was this strange looking
creature with white skin who
had somehow come from far
away somewhere to see and
give medicine and kindness to
these gathered people. These
had never seen a white person!
She looks awfully pale in such
pictures!
After the Program
Come Questions
One kind faced lady came and
sat down beside me before she
headed toward home. She was
so sorry for those black people,
they were so backward! Yes,
they don’t have the simplest
conveniences, so say nothing of
the pleasures I have in my
humble home. They don’t know
the simplest health measures.
They think most of their
diseases are caused by witch-
craft, or evil spirits, or some
other thing. Yet some of them
are far enough along in spiritual
life that when travelling in a
crowded truck (in this country
we would say ‘bus’) and it came
time for church they could start
a church service, take care of
the singing, praying and
preaching in commendable
fashion. Backward? I suppose
SO.
But how silly I am sometimes
when, while having a delicious
dish of ice cream, I have been
heard to say, “I'm sorry for St.
Paul, because he never had a
taste of ice cream.” Slurp,
slurp, and I smack it down. St.
Paul never had ice cream! No,
but I never in the world could
have written the Love Chapter,
I Corinthians 13! And I never
could say, “I have been cru-
cified with Christ.”
St. Paul was backward! But
his letters are immortal, writ-
ten with a quill! I write with a
typewriter and eat ice cream.
St. Paul was backward? In-
deed!
Back To That
Meeting
There was one lady there who
was bubbling over with fun and
good cheer. She is on my mail-
ing list, I had met her before,
and Catherine had known her
more. I just had to get around
and ask her, “Do you love life
itself as much as you seem to?
And enjoy living?” She agreed
that she did and I commended
her for being that way. And the
president of the organization
did her thing so nicely, with
‘cheerfulness and orderliness
that I got her name and frankly
complimented her for being so
good a president.
So Many Nice People!
Yes, I know there are people
who are—anthing but. I enjoy
finding so much kindness and
cheerfulness and purity of life.
I’m glad the world has so many
fine people in it.
In Africa! In America! In Mt.
Zion!
tension important
Tension is necessary to
control the threads that inter-
lock to form the sewing:
machine stitch. A perfectly
locked stitch is one in which the
two threads are drawn into the
fabric to the same degree. The
upper tension controls the
needle thread while the lower
tension controls the thread from
the bobbin, explains Mrs. Ruth
Ann Wilson, extension clothing
specialist at the Pennsylvania:
State University.
