A man who would de- liber ately play a trick on his wite, causing the poor woman to doubt her sanity, is be n e a t h con tempt. But I nest surely did have a lot of fun doing it. It all started with those king size double yolk eggs that a poultry association gave away to members of Congress last week to call attention to national eeg month. Somebody slipped me a doz en of them and as I was driv ing home that evening a dia bolical plot began to take shape in my twisfed little brain. I left the eggs in the car until my wife had retired for the night. Then I fetch ed them inside, opened the refrigerator and emptied Iwo cartons of eggs that she had purchased. In their place I deposited the double yolkers and makes you say look how big they stealthily stole off to bed, cackling to myself. The next morning, as the dear woman was preparing breakfast, the trap snapped shut. "Do you know anything about these eggs?" she asked. "What eggs?" I asked. "These eggs," she said. "They're not the ones I bought. What that?" "Well, are. "They don't look big to me," I said. "They look just like any other eggs." "If you will compare them with the eggs in that other carton, you will see what I mean," she said, testily. Thanks io my cunning and foresight, the other carton also contained dou ble yolkeri, and I now open ed it for her inspection. "Look." I said. "They're both the sair. You must be imagining things." My wife whirled around and without further comment broke one of the eggs in the skillet. Then she whirled back again. "This one," she said, her voice rising, "has two yolks." "Nonsense," I said. "I don't know what's the matter with you this morning. You cer tainly are acting strangely." She gave me a sort of wild look and cracked another egg. Two more yolks plopped into the pan and she reeled back from the stove as though stun ned. - As I watched in horrified fascination, my wife broke a third egg, this time giving a pitiful little cry. I suggested that she go lie down for a while. I was enjoying one of the eggs and reading the paper when she returned. Over my shoulder she happened to see an item about the poultry as sociation's visit to Congress. As I felt her fingers closing in a vise - like grip around my throat, I managed to mut ter a muffled plea of clem ency. "Smile," I said. "You're on 'Candid Camera.' " East Germans, in letters to their newspapers, at Communist-called forums and at fac tory meetings, are asking why they can not visit the West. They say they have friends and relatives in the west and want to see them. The Communist propaganda I campaign has failed because u nas proviaea no ciear an swers. East German Commu nist leader Walter Ulbricht set the tone of the campaign with the remark that West Ger mans with relatives in the East could move to East Ger many. The West Berlin newspaper Tagesspiegel, in a comment on the remark, said, "The keeper has invited us to move into his jail." The discontent of East Ger mans was disclosed clearly when the newspaper Lande- szeitung in the province of Thuringia asked its readers to write it on the theme "What Would Make Me Happy." After four weeks the news paper appealed to its readers to "think correctly politically." It made this recommenda tion, it said, because most of the letters it received tied to gether happiness and trips to the West. Guste Zoern, one of the women agitators assigned to make the wall popular, wrote in the Communist magazine Einheit that the campaign was failing with women. She reported, for example, Salcm-fllPU-Senate President Ben Musa quipped Tuesday that Gov. Mark Hatfield's friends "should give their money to the Salvation Army rather than wasting it on a vice presidential campaign in 1964. He hasn't got a chance," Musa said. is now i tat '.', Neimitaie 6 years old . im nouiv- ;P oi -J ' ' MRMITAGE XJCNTUCKY L WHISKEY f Superbly smooth and mellow Fine Straight Kentucky Bourbon Taste Favorite since 1869 1t Oil llllltl IIITIlltIT CO., lOIIIVIlll.
