 MT. Clark of Cheshire and MT. Patrie of New Haven have made several trips through South Britain recently in search of antiques. They are especially interested in spool beds and old buttons.
 Smoky Jenson claims that the demand of the Wheeler -Nye Bloc that all beIligerents state their war aims reminds him of 8 similar situation that once developed in the Connecticut WPA Writers Project in New Haven. One re- ceiver of government largeSs, who wore purple suits, bright yellow shirts, and amethyst rings on his fingers and whose personal idiO- syncrasies had made it necessary for the YMCA to ask him to find other living quarters, made him. self so objectionable to his fellow workers that his supervisor thrice requested he be given a transfer to project where he could work off his energy.
 After the supervisor had twice explained the circumstances in writing to the state director, without avail or action of any kind, the local supervisor tele- phoned and warned that If the man were not immediately remov- ed, he feared that hostilities would break out among the other work CTS" who figured that even the relief agency should not require employees to associate with such characters. The reply from the then state director, (Since Ire signed"), was classic Innocently, the state director asked, "Just WHAT is the matter with MT. Blank?" (Mr. Blank was trans ferred, believe it or not, to an educational project).
 Dairy farmers are selling out and heading for the Cape Cod cranberry b0gs. Andrew Paanenen, Center Carver cranberry b0g-trot- ter, (according to the Boston Her ald), recently received a $1,OOO,- O15.23 soil conservation check from the federal government. The only thing our folks are talking about is how to conserve soil in cram berry bog. Anybody that's ever tried to pry COW out of one of those bOgs knows that the mud is deep, but the soil is noteworthy for its absence.
 Cook Ryan. 62-year-old, Cape Cod cook and scallop chef. went through here one day last week with a gleam in his eye and a new spring in his step. Not since the hurricane blew away his eating place at Onset Beach has Ryan smelled 8 profit from the sand dune area. News of that check reached Ryan in Bridgeport and he figured 1t must be Pay Day out there where the sun sets in the Atlantic ocean. Andy Paa- nenen tried to cash that check in Plymouth. The bank sort of sucked 1t Its breath and bulged out Its eyes and shook It's head. No bank would have million in the till. but 1t might have few thousand. Ryan figures that 1T one guy got overpaid a million bucks, others might have snagged a few extra thousands before they got the checkwriter repaired, or before the 0-Men caught the pay clerk that had gone crazy.
