The next morning she announced
that she was going to the vegetable
market and the beauty parlor "a
not infrequent combination - and

she had mixed them up with movie

she was throwing away.
So I called her up at the beauty
parlor, thinking she would be prac-
tically out of her mind over the loss.
Yes, she said calmly, she had missed
the money, but just assumed that she
had laid it down somewhere. sug-
gested that she should have left her
new purse at home and just carried
the garbage pail with her.

that he was doin' bit of rum

Phil Howard almost agreed that
such talk could have been only false
