When I drop into Sam Abernethy's store, I usually come away with something worth rememberin'. t Sam's our town's most successful storekeeper and he's not one to do much talking, unless he figures he's really got something to say. Last evenin' he said plenty. Stranger was in the store. And Ben Ryder, Homer Bentley and some others were talk in' about the scrap collection when this feller sort of horned in . . . "I hear these scrap' collections are a lot a bunk," he Bays. "Fact of the matter is, this junk they're gathering ain't no use for makin' steel. Just a waste of time gcttin' it together . . ." At that point Sam steps in. "Jest a minute," he says, fixing him with a cold and steely eye. "May I inquire where you got them so-called facts?" The stranger hems and haws, and Sam advances on him grim and unsmilin'. "Name your authority, air," he says. And he wasn't kiddin'l "Tell Hangers Are Scarce Because of the defence program the manufacture of hangers is be ing deferred and we would appre ciate the return of hangers when ever possibe.

Well, sir, I never saw Sam so mad since Lem" Martin's dog chased the cat into the pickle bar rel. And I guess I never saw a maa crawfish out of a place fast as that fellow did. Thinking it over afterwards, I came to the conclusion that Sum got the real system for handUaf folks who throw facts and figures around free and easy like. Prinstance, I've noticed there's some pretty fancy fact and figure jugglin' done by some of those who oppose the right enjoyed by mil lions of decent people to drink a friendly glass of beer when they want to. Lately I've been asking these folks the same kind of questions that Sam asked that rumor mongerin' stranger. Try it yourself, next time you hear anybody mak ing derogatory remarks whether it's against the war effort... or just against beer.
