For the kids we’ve recently
had two big days that are mile
stones in the life of a child,
and they both came on the
same day. On that day school
opened and a circus came to
town, which reminds me that
time in childhood is measured
by the coming and going of
certain days, and not by the
clock or the calendar. There’s
the day school opens and the
day school closes. There’s
Christmas and Thanksgiving and
one’s birthday, and the day a
dons his first long trousers.
Then there’s circus day, and the
day of your first party and your
first date. There are many,
many more red-letter days in
boyhood’s calendar, but child
hood and teenhood are climaxed
by' the day one graduates from
high school. From then on
time assumes another dimension

adult. He becomes more acute-1
ly aware of time and its swift,
passage, and the fact that time!
in its passing has lost fts keen I
savor. Yea, time in childhood;
is warm and friendly, but when'
one grows older it will never
again extend the friendship and
warmth it did when happiness
was the un-consciousness of
time.
PHIL OSOPHER SAYS: Sue-,

you go after it.
This column is being written
while I am on my vacation. If
it were possible I would be
writing beneath a spreading
palm tree on a tropical beach
somewhere with the sound of
the surf making music in my
ears. But, as usual, I am spend
ing my time at home, and the
nearest thing to a palm tree is
, and Bobby Mansfield showed up
i; best.
!! The large crowd of fans were

a picture of a tropical isle, and
the only music of like nature is
the Hawaiian music I may
make on mjl guitar, if I find
the time. And further, also as
usual, vacation means merely
the change of work locale for a
few days. There is alvvays
some unfinished housework or
desk work to occupy my time.
One of the greatest advantages
of a vacation, even if I keep
busy, is the pleasurable knowl
edge that I can desert my work
at any time I please, and just
laze or loaf if I so wish. It
is that option to work or play
that gives a fellow a fillip of
freedom. That is half the joy
of a vacation. Work, knowing
you can quit any time, then
becomes a pleasure and is even
restful.
No compromise with communism!
