plate full of fresh rye bread and
a large bottle of “Le Vin Vieux”
(their best grape wine—aged for
several years; they don’t drink
water with meals!) Then, a big
bowl of the "Corsican National
Dish” was brought in. This was
. . . very similar to our macaroni
and cheese, but much more tasty.
It was very good, but after one large
helping we were both getting filled
up. However, Paul, who was still
going strong, insisted we have more.
. . . Next, they set before us the
main course—a big platter of roast
beef with a ‘ ‘ Perdreau-Grille” (Cor
sican partridge roasted over an open
fire) perched in the center which
had been shot by Paul on his hunt
ing trip that same morning . . .
It tasted very good — something
like fried chicken, only even better.
After that, we were really full and
were ready to call it quits—but no!
For such little people I don’t know
where they put away so much food
at one time. A whole cheese was
brought in and more “Du Pain”
(bread). Corsicans eat lots of bread
. . . and drink . . . wine also! Next,
a big basket over flowing with those
honey-sweet, yellow-green grapes
was set before us. The rest of the
family joined us at the table for
“Demi-tasse” . . . served at the
end of the meal . . . Then, we
made a big hit by passing around
American cigarettes to the older
ones and chewing gum to the k^ds.
“ . , . Paul suggested we take a
short walk before retiring ... We
returned to the house where we
were escorted to our bedrooms. These
. . . had pretty wall paper, stained
wood ceilings, and lace curtains.
. . . Since it was after midnite, I
hit the sack right away . . .
“The next morning we woke up
about 9 A. M. Downstairs, we had
our breakfast of “cafe du lait”
(half coffee and half fresh milk),
toast, and homemade jam . . . We
had the whole family pose for a
few pictures beside the house and
then gave them a little ride through
the village in our jeep—much to
the delight of the kids. Before leav-
ing, we presented them with all the
candy, cigarettes, etc., that we had
brought for them. After exchanging
addresses ... we started on our
way.
“We . . . started a gradual des
cent,- winding in and out . . .
Finally ... we reached the main
road running along the Mediterr
anean Seacoast. It was quite a wel
come change, then to be able to sail
along at 45 miles per hour. .
“jFinally, we arrived back at
camp again . ... feeling that the
trip had really been worthwhile . . .
We had taken several snapshots
which (if they turn out well) should
give us some interesting evidence
to help remember Corsica at her
best.

“Well, do not worry. Everything
always turns out for the best. That
other girl don’t give you no trouble.
Don’t talk to him ’bout her. She
do that, and it disgust him. He
gonna ask you to marry him. You
isn’t from Georgia?”
“No, but all my father’s people
are. Why?”
“I sees Georgia some where.”
Amazing!
This went on from four o’clock un
til the long hand of Peggy’s watch
IKiinted to twelve and the short hand
at five. Not only did Mabel read
the past, discuss the present, and
predict the future, but she also
gave Peggy a sermon on Christian
princijdes equal to any that mi^ht
be heard in local churches. Mabel
said that she had a poem by which
she lived. She was quite pictures
que, reclining in a cljpir reciting
through thick lip.s that protruded
from her oval face with its high
Indian cheekbones,
“ 1 live for those who love me.
For those I know are true.
For the Heaven that smiles above
me,
And the good that I can do.”
Mabel rambled on and on giving
advice, predicting marriage for both
girls, and giving examples of her
psychic powers when she had warn
ed people of coming disaster or
“dreamed dat dat was goan
happen.” She finally said, “I sees no
more.”
The two girls rose to leave and
asked what they owed her. Mabel
replied, “I can’t charge nothing—
just whatever you feels like giving
appreciates.” Booty and Peg felt
very much like giving! They had
had an afternoon that would keep
their morales boosted until the re
lease of six weeks’ grades.

Churchill defied the strategists by
saling that he did not expect
victory before late spring or early
summer. The Germans have definite
ly tightened their belts another
notch. No matter whether one is
a military strategist or a casual
observer, the effect of German de-
terminatioln cannot be estimated.
The business of prediction is purely
a guessing game.
Governor Dewey spoke in Boston,
November 1, in a violent attack
against the Democrats. He asserted
that the Democratic Party was in
three factions: New Dealers, the
Political Action Compiittee of the
CIO, and the Communists. His
charges against the Communistic
element will be a stumbling block
with Russia at the peace table, if
the Republicans are elected. Dfewey
stated that American Communism
was not the same as that in Russia.
His generalities, however, were
enough to arouse the Russians.
Dewey reiterated this speech on
Thursday in Baltimore.

Camels will suit your taste and
