Kew of the really good local yarns with plenty of color skip the name of Franklin's Harley Lyle. whose active life includes titles like mayor, poet, newspaper - man. businessman, and. by his own admission, "many others that can't be used in polite society". lis also is a paiachute jumper.! though this is a singular achieve- ; ment that never has been or never will be repeated. In his younger years, Mr. Lyl? was never one to side step a dare. So. when someone bet him he wouldn't make a parachute jump, he accepted the challenge and bailed out of an airplane at 2.500 feet.

And twice, from the back ground. has come the voice of my wife saying: "Yes, watch it grow, and grow, and grow . . A. S. C.
