The gardener is very disconso-
late, as someone got away with
four of his finest punches of
grapes. For four years he has
been nursing and cultivating these
vines with motherly care, and this
season the vines contained four
punches which would capture the
blue ribbon at any fair. But alas!
the grapes have disappeared. No
more does the gardener make his
daily visit to the vines to measure
the circumference of the grapes
and to speculate on how large a
box it will take to hold each
bunch. He asked us to investi-
gate the matter and run down the
miscreants, but as there were no
clues observable, we declined the
job. We did, however, inform
him that there must be thieves in
the vicinity, and he admitted the
point.
