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 Brough. My next-door neighbor drops in and I try to give him the clothes I've stacked in the hall for the cleaners. The only faces I could remember immediately would be the ones with three eyes. So few people have them. If your name is Theophilus Crocodile, I'll never forget it, but your face is no place. While I am saying, "How do you do?" and smiling brightly, you may be saying, "Oh, we met last week at the city dump." "Yes, I know," I say. "I remember you very well." This is a big lie, so then I cover up by asking you about your wife and naturally it turns out you were divorced day before yesterday and I am in disgrace. To avoid this, I made a stab once at assuming the offensive myself. When I was introduced to my bridge partner the other day, I said, "Oh, we've met." I smiled at her fondly. "Why, no we haven't," she said. "I've never seen you before in my life." "That's what I mean," I rejoined, quickly trumping her ace. I'm popular on the dance door, where I recognize wives if their husbands are with them. "Hello, Mis. Figbine," I shout. Mr. Figbine frowns and his partner blushes. It is Mrs. Gastric. They hurry over to explain. "But we've met, you know," says Mi's. Gastric. "At the Swallows'." I clutch at a clue. "Oh, yes. Wasn't it lovely?" Mis. Castries mouth opens. "Well, I don't know," she says carefully. "They were so devoted." "Just wonderful," I say heartily. When I get home, I remember, of course. Mrs. Gastric and I met at the Swallows' house right after Mr. Swallow's funeral. r!TY j I" N. Michigar, A... Chicago I, III. lion.rd S. Divide, n . ? i'ib..'l',,J Wj"" C- "'.
