"How's that?" I asked.
She strained to be heard, her

dislike them. The wife always

1 a set of dishes in the cupboard
that wouldn't be there were it
not for the stamps
But I'm overruling this re
minder. Saturday I found a
: good reason to dislike 'em.
As husbands are inclined to
do at times, I tagged along
when the wife went to the
premium store in Asheville to
redeem a fist full of stamps
' she had collected.
Once inside, I realized I had
made a mistake. There were
, long lines and lines of impa
tient women. You men know,
. as I do, that there's nothing
like an impatient woman. I've
even known them to snap.
. Some even bite.
; In this mob of feminine
? Fagans, I was uncomfortable. I
? found solitude of a degree
' among the gas Janterns and
> fishing gear. Few women ven
? ture into that department.
' And I waited.
j And waited.
Forty-five minutes I waited
, while the wife worked her way'
1 up the line to the counter.
. Finally, she made it./
She told the woman what
she wanted.
"Gosh I'm sorry. Honey (all
salesladies say Honey')," she
said, "We've been out of those
all day."
Somewhat frazzled by her or
deal, the wife found me among
the fishing gear iwet fly de

"They're out of em," she said
1 wistfully.
"Fret not, intrepid licker of
I the stamps," I answered wear
ily. "Five more minutes and
you'd have been out of a hus
band."
! Oh!" she said. ^tamping a
dainty foot, 'You're a man:
"Did you ever have any
doubts?" I answered, castir.? a

Franklin High s new .gymna
sium. although just barely in
use fur :i wee':, already ha*
been the target of vandals.
In several windows are the
unmi-ta!:able chipped holes ol
nns
It's obviously the work of
some fond mother's spoiled and
vvi rmciu.^i'd br.it. who would
profit lonsid i;ibly. ij the ?un
stock was applied with lusty
strokes across his hind quarters.
Alt. r the ".spo;t- rough" we
have' weathered here, inns
should make it a point v see
that vandalism is stopped in :ts
tracks. All it v.ouid tak is
witnessing on-' act and setting
up the vandal as a sacri;:- al
goat.
But the one who's hu'rt in
the window shooting is one that
doesn't deserve it Because the
building has not yet been ap
proved, Macon Construction
Company will have to replace
| the broken panes And after all
| ; the company has done to speed
the building's construction so
I games could be played in it this
1 year. There ain't no justice, is
there?
