Phono 837-8227 Cux 4 Corner By Bogley Hard Luck Cuz! There is no doubt about it. 1 have die worst kind of luck. Misfortune seems to dog my footsteps. It doesn't nuke *ny difference how hard I try to calamities, actually I they are always looking for me to happen to. This Latest bit of bad luck, 1 know, has happened to a lot of other folks. In fact. I under stand It takes place just about every day. However, when It befell others I have known about, darned If they didn't always seem much more able to stand the shock. Why In a lot of cases I have even known 'em to be real pleased, some of 'em get so tickled you d think they had Inherited a young fortune. But those who act like that, It is plain to see, are just a little tetched. If they ain't to begin with I'd betcha a bushel of Scran ton buttons they will be just as soon as the full impact of the calamity descends on 'era. I always thought you had to be a lot older than I am for a thing like this to hit you. I know my older sister was darn near the half century mark before she suffered one of these catastrophles. And here I am only about to turn 40 and the roof has caved In on me. So far I'm bearing up reasonably well under the strain but I don't know how long It is gonna last. This thing that happened to me Is the one event I have been dreading mighty bad for several years. There was only one other thing I dreaded more, and that was getting old. No, I'm lying, cause I dreaded more than anything the thought of maybe NOT GETTING OLD. Course I don't know of any thing that will mark you any more clearly as an old-timer than when you have this happen to you. I feel sure you have worried right along with me about my getting prematurely bald, also about the fringe getting a lit tle gray. And I have been a little concerned about this spare tire around my middle, pouches under my eyes, and the crow's feet at their cor ners, arms continuing to grow shorter, knobby knees, and a few other little tell-tale signs of approaching the Sr. Citizen bracket. Yeah. I worried and fretted over these things but I reckon it's just as well they happened when they did. They all kinda fit me for the role I'm gonna have to play from now on. You are probably in a hurry for me to tell you what this catastrophe was so you can begin to devise ways and means of avoiding it. Well, I can tell you there's nothing you can do to prevent it- No defense, and no known cure unless you want to go ahead and die young. It's that kind of thing. Sorta like going down a long steep hill and you want to slow down some, you feel comfortable, safe, and secure cause you know all you have to do is touch your brakes. You do and they hit the flo bodellll Ever have that happen to you? Leaves you with a sinking, sorta frantic feeling, doesn^ It? Well, 111 tell you about it, and this is how it all began. The phone rang. Sounded ominous, too, but I picked It up anyhow. A very pleasant voice (and how anyone can be bright and cheerful at a time like this is more than I can fathom? you can tell there's ? lotta NUTZ in this World ?and steer clear of "em if you can) said; "Is this Mr. Such & Such?" 1 admitted my Identity inmadUtelr. And why I'll do that to a rank stranger is more than I know. It's like I was proud of being who I am. I'm not, so I sure don't understand how come I am so foolish. One thing certain I'm planning on being much more careful in the future. Anyhow, then P. V. (Pleasant Voice) said. "This is Western Union." Now you know Western Union doesn't ever have any thing but bad news so Ibraced myself and P. V. continued with, "Dear Grandpa I" That's when I stopped her with, "Mam I am pretty sure vou have die wrong number.' Again she wanted to know If I waa who I had aAnltted to being and like ? pure nut I owned 19 to It a second time. Thia la what you call compounding a felony. Well, she continued happily with her Utile meaaage and every word waa dropping with all the gloom and finality of the whack of a guillotine. Seems I had become a grandee of a wriggling, little, red, wrinkled, aquawllag, and you know what else kind of a 7 lb. 3 ok. girl named Kath arine Am, born almost In the ahadow of the Cow palace while that shindig was In full swing on July U. tf you have been withholding your sympathy until you had all the facta, now you've got 'am, and you can sand all of It straight to ma ? the sym pathy, I already rot the facia. You know the terrible pro cess this sets in motion, don't you? Let me just tell you! This means, purely and 5 Imply, that the process of your becoming an ANCESTOR Is gaining a lot of momentum. Well, all I can promise you is that 1 am sure not gonna get all excited and begin doing a lotta silly things. Nor do any bragging or nothing like that. You know I was just think ing. This little gal is named for a cotfjle of English queens. Now how about THAT??? Wonder what it would cost to fly out to California. I hear the rates are very, very reasonable. Dr. Walter F.
