Aug. 8 WV There Is no shortage of dream worlds In America. Back down the road a ways I wrote a piece about the private dream world I live In when I am be ing bored by people or ought to be at my work. Well, Judging from the mall I have been getting, there must be more dream worlds In this country Uian there Is bubble gum. For all our efficiency and hustle-bustle, we Americans still delight In shedding the shackles of our routine to romp and gainer wool In mentul pastures where Die moon flowers never die. Many people have written In to tell m? what fun they get out of daydreaming. I think they are much more healthy minded than some globe-browed people who say day dreaming Is a pernicious waste of lime. Reveries often lead to struc tures more substantial than airy casilrs-lii-Bpaln. They are also es cape valves for bottled up mean ness and frustration. The man who dnydreanu rarely goes mad and biles strangers In a crowded subway. Tne tense man of unresting ac tion clutters his office walls with slogans like "Think I" and "Do It now I" But when he goes to bed he is likely to ride off on a wild night mare who has the bit In her tth and gallops htm down perilous lanes of fear and torment. The daydream er. on the other hand, has placated nis subconscious mind by twilight and lies down to a restful, unbroken sleep. A 60-year-old lady In Charlotte. N. C, wrote me that all her life she wanted to be an artist, "but poverty said 'Nor" But when she comes home from work, she props herself up In bed with three pillows and sketches tree leaves "to draw the fire from my brain."

She said that thus rc-llvtiig her youthful dreams she found happi ness but warned: "Be careful and don't lock the door when you go uito that dream world. Remember, you are In there all alone, and you have to get back out!" A young married woman from Texas wrote she had created a j dream world of her own, centering about music, before she started to school. "I never had a chance to study 11," she said, "and Just continued on dreaming band music and beautiful waltzes. It's gone on so long that I have decided to start studying music." This lady said that after ten years of marriage ber husband couldn't understand her day-dreaming be cause he dreamed only at night. He sounds to me like a dlrect-actionlst. Another young lady from Wash ington reported that she crossed over into her dream world while sit ting In the woods during a refresh ing rain. She Is an outdoor day dreamer, a rugged cousin of the more conventional, or Indoor, dream er. Most daydrcamers do not tra verse the threshold of trance at places where they are likely to catch pneumonia. I am somewhat suspicious of a major In California ah, there's a plnce to dream who wrote In to tell me how to accomplish one of my favorite drcum world projects to rob the Bank of England. "Hi One hour before the bank opens," he said, "bust the air condi tioning system. "(3) Drop poison gas pellets into the bank. "(3) Enter with a gas mask and shoot everyone with a pistol that has a silencer on It. "(4 Take and put all money you can Into two briefcases and leave Immediately. "(61 Stay In hiding for thirteen years then start spending the money. "(8i Have a good time." The major added In a postscript that "I have thought about the same thing sometimes."
