Than, there wore a few old gnarled apple tree* a till there. One in particular, that always had the earliest fetples on it. Every year as aoon as they were big as marbles I'd go by the smokehouse, get a handful of a alt and climb ig> this old tree and help myself n a green apple feast. Ma would always predict a fear some bellyeche as a result, but it never developed. Or she'd declare there wouicki't be enough fetples left n babe more'n one tart. Course, I never worried about that cause 1 liked 'em a lot better green than in any tart. There's only one of my old school teachers left there now. He's the principal of the high school. I enjoy going by n see him. And I remember how he used n fret over all of us. 1 could never quite see why he always felt so concerned. 1 understand now. And he hasn't changed a bit. He still frets. One thing we could always ex pect In his classes was, as he put It ? " a little quiz." Then a discussion, and If this showed any slgnes of getting out of hand he'd say very, very solemnly "Now let's gird out loins and get down to business." And woe be unto the one that didn't "gird 'em good." When I used to walk along the streets at home It was unusual to pass anyone I didn't recognize. Now If I meet some one I do know, I'm here to tell you that I stop them and talk to 'em. Yes, there were heartaches, disappointments, and hard times "back home" ? but there were Joys, pleasures, and good times, too, and more than enough to Insure that my returning will always be a happy occasion.
