BY CARL HELM
Every once in a while, on this
magical island between the riv-
ers, you get so strung-up with the
glitter and glamor, the garnish
and the glut of things that are
man-made and stony, that you
want to sit quietly on grass, be-
neath a leafy tree and consort with
small furry beasties who .are
harmless—who don't care who you
are or how much dough you're
worth—if only you have a few pea-
nuts on you.
So you buy a big bag and go to
Central Park, the woodland acre-
age so fortuitously set in the mid-
dle of Manhattan, and feed the
friendly squirrels. There's some-
thing about having them come
trustingly to your hand, pick a
peanut from it, and send out a
call to their pals off the pathways,
that makes you feel human again.
You can't sit there grim and
sour, and watch frisk the frolickers
that you have made happy. You
find yourself chuckling, then inad-
vertently smiling at passersby and
children who stop to watch the
fun. And such fun it is, for a
few dozen peanuts—such affection
you get for 10 cents in the park.
If in the mountains and mid-
lands a squirrel is just something
to stalk and shoot at—without
giving him the chance to shoot
back—in Manhattan he can be a
friend in need, and for peanuts!
