IN ELEVATOR MANS PHILOSOPHY

Richard Blankenshjp is a philosopher. Rich
ard is the elevator man at tho State capitol
Daily he comes in contact with tourists and
city sishtscers who frequent Virglnias hlstori-
cal building of State. lie listens TO their adj
miration Of the playful squirrels in Capitol
Park, the ripping fountains. the goldfish aqua
rum, and the song Of the birds in the artif-
cial forest.
Listen to Richard:
Gives ne a pain in the ncck-all these city
folks talking about natur' in the summer time
and the beetifaf landscape and the nimble
squirrels and the ripping waters and the
splashing fish. Dem squirrels is SO tame they'd
steal a peanut out of your vest pocket. If you
looked cross-eyed at one of the fish he'd turn
up and croak. Desc ripping waters is hydrant
water pumped through lead pipes. II you had
every bird on the grounds, in a bunch they
wouldn't make a decent pic. The bootiful land
scape requires all the TRUSTEES from the peni-
Tertiary 10 make It %bootiful. Wat do desc
folks know about MATURE Nuttiu'.
Richard oplned that if the civ folk and
tourists would take a hike far out into the
country. they would learn something of real
nature.
Take me back to the Shenandoah ~valley,"
continues Richard. and let me wander out
alone with hook and line across The fields and
over the newly plo~ed ground, see the coun-
tTy's rugged landscape and push through the
green thickets until ] comes to the creek. |
can SIT Oh the banks. listen to the catbfrd and
dream the day long.
And fshin-some OF desc civ inks and
tourists wouldn't know whether to bait a hook
with a worm or a peanut-hutter sandwich.
wouldn't know a channel catfish from a
sardine.
Talk about back TO natnr' all yon please
cant get back to natur' in one of desc artificial
parks. Back to natur' is back to the coun-
try--the real backwoods of Virginia.
And desc political jobs is not all they is
cracked mp to be. I'm going to trow up dis
one of desc days and go back to the coun-
Try where | don't have TO live on pre-digested

Where you don't have to whip your liver to

I won't be by o street car nor a auto-it will
be by q plow or a disc cultivator.'
The philosophy of Richard is not inaccurate,
Artificial landscapes do not supply the rugged
md true nature of the country-God's and not
mans creation. None OF us in the city spend
