From where I sit... JyJoe Marsh
-O-Yfa^ation
from Marriage?
Alvin Blake went south on hi, va-
cation, for some fishing, and left hia
Missus to enjoy a vacation from the
corncob pipe, clothes in a heap, and
solos on the harmonica.
First few days, Martha enjoyed
it—house neat and quiet, top back
on the toothpaste, no morning mess
from Alvin’s midnight snacks (Al’s
partial to a bit of cheese and beer
at bedtime).
Come the end of the week, she
began to fidget: couldn’t even read
the Clarion, it looked so unmussed;
didn’t have any appetite with no-
body to cook for. She was about to
wire / when he bargea home a
week ahead of time, and she almost
cries for gratitude. (“Felt the same
way myself,” says AI.)
From where I sit, those differ-
ences of habit and opinion —
whether they have to do with corn-
cob pipes, a glass of beer, or play-
ing the harmonica, seem mighty
trivial when you’re separated. And
they are, tool
