It’s funny how a certain thing makes you think of a certain per son. When I sit down at this an tiquated typewriter 1 often think of Mary Sue Reed, that charming young lady whose picture was in last week’s News, you know I bought the machine from her sev eral years ago. I probably bought the ribbon in honor of her gradua tion from nursing school. I got lost in the Beacon the oth er night, the worst thing about it was that I was dragging a 950 lb. bale of rayon after me on a hand truck.
