We won’t be seeing his old jalopy bouncing over the back roads any more. I'm going to miss it, too. Many a morning Cappy and I drove off in that rattletrap for a day’s hunting or fishing. We’d pile rods or guns in back, and prop open the trunk compartment—so Jiffg», Cappy's pointer, could jump in and go along. They say when Cappy brought the new car home he opened up the hood to show off the engine— and poor old Jiggs hopped right capacity or l«rxer in! Figured it was the trunk. He hopped right out in a hurry, too. That cylinder head was mighty hot. From where I sit, old habits are hard to shake, once they get a hold. Like, for inatanre, too many people are still in the habit of trying to ran their neighbors' lires — telling them how to set, what to wear, whether or not to enjoy a refreshing glass of beer. 1 say that kind of thinking's out moded . . . ought to be turned in for a new model!
