My Typewriter Talks
Once in awhile I happen
across someone to whom I am
introduced by name, and get a
surprised look from the
stranger who exclaims: “Oh, I
always read your column in the
Dallas Post: I've always
wanted to see what you looked
like!” It happened just last
Sunday when I was being in-
troduced to a relative of one
who had recently died at Valley
Crest. This was in a funeral
home over in the heights section
of Wilkes-Barre. My thoughts
were far from the Dallas Post at
the time.
But, as can be expected from
my vanity, I was pleased to
meet this discerning soul who
reads things of such taste.
And I began to look around for
a subject suitable for use in this
column at this time of year. No
matter what time of year it is all
kinds of memories get kicked up
from the odds and ends of things
around my desk. Once in awhile
I even get to see something of
the actual top of my desk which
could arouse memories. Such as
that I inherited it from a brother
of mine who died about 50 years
ago. And it was given to him by
descendants of an uncle of mine
who used to teach in Pine Street
school in Binghamton. An
evangelistic minister who was
visiting me at one time
remembered that uncle as the
principal of Pine Street School
and at one time had summoned
him to his office and turned him
proper side up across his desk
and paddled him soundly!
I calculate roughly the desk
must be about 100 years old.
And it doesn’t get any younger.
It is usually covered with things
that ought to be classified,
catalogued and placed in proper
compartments somewhere. I
would never find them then! It
always has to have space for my
Royal portable—the kind that
talks for me!
Standing on top of a small
filing cabinet at the back of my
desk are things I want to lay in
sight just until I can get to doing
something else with them; in
other words they are things on
their way out. Maybe my
current church envelopes after
they have been marked and had
checks tucked in them are on
their way to church. The Thing
that does the catching of things
is called Mullah’s
Holder. It is a beautiful piece of
wood, in fact looks like two
pieces of wood hinged together
to fold flat or stand up to hold a
book. Fact about it is that it was
hand-carved in the Orient as a
rack to support the Moslem’s
Koran’
Holy Book, the Koran. It is
carved from a single piece of
Shesham wood. No nails nor
hinges in its construction. By
some secret craftmanship the
two leaves are never separated
but simply unfold to stand as a
support and yet can be
collapsed to lie flat, and yet not
come apart. It is beautiful
wood, beautiful hand carving by
obscure artist somewhere. Must
have taken a long, long time in a
society where time is nothing to
make pass swiftly!
I used tolike to carve, too, but
there was no artistry about my
work with a sharp pocket knife.
I had an excellent place to do
that kind of carving, for I had an
un-proved idea that I could
build a cabin in the woods fit to
stay over night in. A few miles
out of Great Bend up Randolph
Street toward Blatchley we
acquired a piece of woodland
where so many ferns were
growing that we named it
Fernside. At that time I was
studying ferns and could.
identify about 14 varieties by
name in the immediate vicinity
of the cabin I was to build.
Actually I framed and built
such a cabin. I am not boasting,
just stating facts! And an an-
cient half-breed Indian wat-
ched, and even taught my late
wife Ruth to mortise floor joists,
and even made this pronounce-
ment: ‘Yuh can’t learn most
women nothin’. But your wife
does better than my second wife
did at carpentering.” But that
was about her! About me he
said, (for he was told I was a
preacher!) “Ef yew can’t
preach no better 'n yew can
carpenter I'd never wanta hear
y’uh preach!’’ And he never did,
for I think he could not hear me
when I did preach his funeral
sermon!
But I was going to tell what a
wonderful place that was to do
wood carving, I mean, whit-
tling. For there were cracks a
half inch wide between all floor
boards. At lamp light time I
by the Rev.
Charles H. Gilbert
would sit in our ‘‘parlor’’ by the
table and whittle to my heart’s
content. For in the morning
Ruth could sweep the room
cross-wise of the floor boards
and most of the sweepings
would go through the cracks!
In my desk drawer there are a
couple of wooden paper-knives
or letter openers. They do good
service in folding my Jots from
Dot papers, smoothing the
creases down. One I recently
noted has the name of the kind
of wood carved on it, Mulberry.
The other one has Fernside
chipped in it, and is made of
yellow bireh, perhaps a root
from such a tree. The root
material in itself is a lovely
mellow yellow and is quite hard.
On the floor by the outside door
is a door-stop of that same
yellow birch root. I made it
originally to be one of a pair of
sturdy book-ends, but never
could find a matching piece of
the root. So it has to do solitary
duty as a door stop.
There is another paper knife
in my drawer that I did not
carve but which came to me as
a souvenir from Israel and has
two Hebrew words carved on
the handle, reading from right
to left the words are pronoun-
ced, ‘‘yehee ohr’’—‘let there be
Light”, (Gen. 1:3).
Still another paper knife is not
from wood but from brass with
an antique kind of treatment. It
has stamped on it: ‘“Made in
Israel.” Still another beautiful
paper knife, especially handy
for the business of folding
papers, is also made of brass,
and is stamped Lebanon! There
seems never any conflict going
on in my drawer between these
different countries! I was in-
terested to read in the National
Geographic Magazine for April
1958 a description of the design
on this Lebanon paper knife of
mine as follows: ‘Haddad’s
nightingale pattern: horn
handles are trimmed with brass
and inlaid with silver and dyed
camel bone.”

We watched out, we didn’t
pout, we didn’t shout and Santa
did come. This year he arrived
by jet propulsion and lowered
hy retro rockets. (That’s what
one Air Force Sergeant told
me.) The weather was so
beautiful, I thought Santa would
cancel Christmas and substitute
Easter. When Jolly St. Nick
landed at our home, he missed
the lawn and landed in our
living room, at least thet’s what
it looks like.

joying the warm hospitality

There are many good things
about Oak Hill residents (of
course. there are some bad
things too. but they don’t count)
and one of them is that when
there is an emergency, you can
always count on them. During
the recent blackout, neighbors
were telephoning each other to
ask if they needed the use of
their gas stoves or to come over
to keep warm. It is a nice
fecling to live with people like
that. Even during that un-
mentionable snow storm
Thanksgiving, families were
sharing their holiday meal. Oak
Hill is a nice place to live—not
only to visit.
Cub Pack 241 celebrated the
Christmas season by decorating
the tree at Lehman Center,
singing carols to guests at
Maple Hill Nursing Home, and
enjoying a party attended by
Santa at the Lehman Methodist
Church.
- With the coming New Year
festivities, where people tend to
drink out the old year and drink
in the new, please keep in mind
that the new year will not be
very happy should you be the
cause of an accident. Besides—
the life you save may be mine!
Happy. Healthy, and Holy New
Year.
