Being from the country you would naturally be drawn to the Agricultural Department and your wonder grows to see so many people working at desks. This looks like queer furming and you ap proach a desk presided over by a bright eyed, sunny faced, nim ble figured young lady and peep over her shoulder to eee what manner of flowers the is planting in that great stone building. She ceased her tattoo on a typewriter and whimpered to heiself "1 am glad that's done."
