Berf Childers
and the Melon Patch
Bert Childers put an ad In the
Clarion the other day. Here’s what ;
it said:
"Planted more melons than I
em eat this year. Stop by and pick
as many as yon want. All free.”
As yon can guess, plenty of folks
seat their kids over and plenty of
the parents came too. Stripped
Bert’s melon patch in no time.^And
as they went away, Bert treated
the kids to lemonade, and offered
the grownups a glhss of ice-cold
sparkling beer. *
v • ■
Naturally it puzzled some folks
- ... but Bert explains: “It gives me
' a kick to share things when I can
afford to—whether it’s the melons,
or the lemonade, or beer. I guess I
s just like to indulge my whims.1*
From where I sit, if we had more
“self-indulgent" people like Bert
—who believe in share and share
alike, live and let live, t^ja tired
world would be a whole lot better
off!
