. . . one of these days I'll look in a minor and not be able
to place the face.
The end will have come at last and it will be just as all
my former friends predicted.
Distinguishing between castor beans and string beans or
between dogs and cats gives me no trouble at all. But unless I've
known you all my life, I'll wonder who you are for the rest of it.
There are all sorts of inconsequential items stored in my head.
A fellow named Howie Judson once played baseball in the
Three-I League. Robert Taylor's real name is Spangler Arlington

before in my life."
"That's what I mean," I rejoined, quickly trumping her ace.
Ira popular on the dance floor, where I recognize wives
if their husbands are with them.
"Hello, Mrs. Figbine," I shout.
Mr .Figbine frowns and his partner blushes. It is Mrs. Gastric,
iney hurry over to explain.
"But we've met, you know," says Mrs. Gastric.
At the Swallows ."
I clutch at a clue.
"Oh, yes. Wasn't it lovely?"
Mrs. Gastric's mouth opens.
'Well, I don't know," she says carefully. .

"Just wonderful," I say heartily.
