Going up was easy but, once there, he found that get ting down wouldn't be so simple. The height and the shifting rocks scared him. Just then our dog appeared. She waited anxiously at the bottom during Marc's first feeble attempts, then clambered swiftly up the awkward pile. When she felt his little fists dig into her fur, she carefully led the way back down until both were on solid ground. As I watched this scene from my kitchen window, I won dered just how dumb are dumb animals? Mrs. Donald E. Redman, Huron, O. CHARITY AT THE SUPERMARKET. One morning the line at the supermarket checkout counter was stalled because an elderly lady was a penny short for her purchases. The clei'k was momentarily at a loss until a little girl, next in line, held up her small hand. In it was a penny. "Use mine," she said. "I was going to buy a candy bar, but I lost one of my pennies, so I don't have enough anyway." This child's readiness to help another, despite her own dis tress at missing a candy bar, surely indicated the kind of home training she'd had. Needless to say, she got her candy bar. Generosity like hers is contagious. The man in line behind her paid for it. C.G.M., Tupelo, Miss. We Pay $10 far Yaur Letters We welcome your views on any subject of general interest.

Acknowledging their staccato sneezes and streaming eye balk, I sy, "Well, I haven't had a cold for four years." I don't say that any more. At tha moment, I don't say anything. My glands are volltn, my throat is sore, my eyes burn, my back aches, fid I Iwvi blown my nose 4,572 times since yesterday. I tafca vitamin pills, tomato juice, orange juice, and aspirin ary hour on the half hour. I took yellow and gray cap aulta wntil the doctor gave me brown and white ones. 0If they IMPa puce nd pistachio, they wouldn't help. UtodkiM nd science have made some dandy strides.

Or me. Almost every symptom in the books can turn into a cold. And frequently does. Poets and aages have written diatribes on colds. Literary masterpieces have been based on that aching agony which turns a maestro mute and a philosopher into a pygmy snuf fling away like a moron. No matter ho I rationalize, I am not cured nor even con solad. The last time I paered in a mirror, my nose was frayed like Christma paper tha morning after and running 2-minut. mile. No, I haven't ha.d cold for four years. I hv a lot of resistance, yJti jCnof. Tint's tfhy it's going to take me four years to get over this one. Me and my big mouth. O CD CD O r- P (fAMIl?
