Recently this observer heard "In-
dian Love Call,” that stately and
melodious song, played on a juke
box—in swing time. I've now heard
everything!

In Corpus Christi:
There is a cafe that serves eggs
any way you want them just so you
•want them scrambled.
As the Good Conscience Parking
Lot, the mortorist parks his own car
and takes the keys with him. There
is no one there; the customer pokes
15 cents through a slot in the door.
And a souvenir shop bears the ro-
mantic name of “The Sea Chest."

My good friend and fellow news-
paperman, John McCarty of the Am-
arillo Globe-News has written a
booklet, "The Enchanted West,”
splendidly* illustrated by Ignatz Sa-
hula-Dycke and published by the Dr.
Pepper Co., of Dallas, that covers the
scenic variety of the West, its rugged
history, notorious early-day charac-
ters, great ranches and ranchmen,
rodeos and many other subjects—
truly an excellent piece of work.
Do you like brain-teasers? Here’s
one:
Long, long ago, there lived a des-
pot who built a bridge and, in the
middle, he erected a gallows. Then J
he posted a guard at each end of the I
bridge and each traveler was asked j
where he was going. If he told the
truth, he was to be permittd to pro-
ceed but if he lied, he was to be |
hanged on the gallows.
One day, a traveler was asked the
customary question, "Where are you
going?” and he replied, “I am going
to be hanged on that gallows in the
middle of the bridge."
If the guards allowed him to go
across the bridge, then he lied and
should have been hanged. On the
other hand, if they hanged him, then
he told the truth and should have
been permitted to go on!

Ed Carey Talks
(Thanksgiving) Turkey
Bert Childers hails Ed Carey on
his back porch. "What you doin’,
Ed?” he asks.
"Pluck in’our Thanksgiving
turkey,” Ed replies.
“Looks like a chicken to me,”
says Bert. “Looks like one to me,
too,” Ed allows. “Bnt with so
many !c rkeys goln’ to onr fight in’
men, some chickens got to do a
turkey-size job.”
Guess that’s the way Thanks-
giving is going to be in a lot of
homes this year. We’ll be sitting
down to rationed foods and sub-
stitutes—and being mighty glad
about It! . . . knowing that the
best is going to our men overseas.
And from where I sit, the
most important thing of all isn’t
rationed. That's the Spirit of
Thanksgiving! Today—as the
lights are going on again all over
the world—there’s more of It than
ever! And more canse for it—as
the powers of darkness yield to
freedom, tolerance, and human
kindness!
