The Secret Weapon
in Dan Mason's Attic
Dan Mason was always what we
call a "string saver." When he
unwraps a package he rolls up
the string-folds the paper-and
puts them both in his attic for
safe-keeping.
"Never can tell when thlngs'll
come in handy," says Dan.
And you should see his attic!
Stacks of paper, balls of string,
empty bottles (Dan being a mod
erate man and sticking just to
beer), old horsoshocs-and good
ness knows what-all.
"We used to kid him a lot. But
then conies the scrap drive, and
Dan seta a record for the Metal
and the paper he contributes.
And the glassmakers owe him a
medal for the empty bottles he
turns in.
From where I sit, Dan's one
up on us all. What's more, he's
got us doing it too -collecting
scrap, returning empty bottles
not because somebody makes us
do it, but because it's the Demo
cratic way of working together
to win the war.
