slooping at an angle of 275 degrees or something of that nature l know I have the figures approximately correct because I've been over the premises personally foot by foot and sometimes foot on top of foot, when I slipped back.
 Tn due season we reached the top. My new found friend went incoming around from rock to rock looking at tn 0 view but for the moment I did not seem to care for views. I seemed to prefer lying on my back with my face pulled open to the last notch. en- gagged in panting. Sometimes I fear, Larry, that I will never catch up with my pants. I will still be hauling in on my this summers pants when others are using their fall and winter ones. Even now I wake up in the night and find myself panting violently, try ing involuntarily, as 1t were, to get back some of the pants that l lost, never to regain again, while ascending that noun tain.
 While I was lying there with my face all agog in the manner which I have described to you, the person in charge came over where l was and said to me that I ought to be very glad to have taken the trip with him. Such @ thing was good for every muscle In my body. he said. He said 1t would make me feel ten years younger.
 Yes I said to him. slipping in the words between pants. Yes, 1 judge that is quite true. Probably my body Is 10 years younger, maybe 15, and my head cannot be out of it's first foolish infancy yet, or 1t would not have permitted me to let you lure me up on top of this place. But speaking for my legs I can truth tI,o !, ra m ray. than they were On the contrary they have aged greatly since we started.
