"A Goose For the Gander" is
really about wife, wife who finds
another woman in her home. She
has been away, unwisely. for six
weeks during which time The Gan
der had stuck his neck out, so to
speak. And what does the poor wife
do about it? That, of course, makes
for the humor, the strange geese,

Well, the wife is ultra modern
and thus above making scenes and

three men to her home-and that's
what happens in "a Goose For the
Gander"
These three men have qualities,
charm and a few other things,
which have evaded her husband.
The wife picks one (Tony) for his
wit, another (Johnathan) for his
generosity and a third (Wally) for
his Drawn and muscles. Mix them
all together and things happen
speedily and humorously. Thus The
Gander is in for trouble, resulting

I HAVE discovered that the

popular topic This is because
it is what you might call con-
science twinger.
Millions of our citizens are
trading more or less on the
black market, therefore when
you mention il you put the
twinge in on the conscience OF
these citizens.
Most likely l should not be
writing these paragraphs as
they will only cause many of
my readers TO recoil from them
as conscience twingers. Do you
feel yourself recoiling any?
The black market Of today is
like prohibition used TO be as
a conscience twinger. A man
who took a drink of liquor dur
ing prohibition for other than
medicinal purposes knew he
was lawbreaker. But he did
not fancy being reminded OF
