SATURDAY, AUGUST ID,
1946-Today's native may be a
promising experimentalist and an
accomplished critic, but there is
tendency to a complaining ma
ture, probably dissatisfied with
its achievements. Much of this
may be avoided by schooling the
mind to contentment, since there
should be a fair measure of sue
cess.
SUNDAY, AUGUST Is, 1916
Today's degree brings friend
ships and fortune, attained chief
ly through the pleasant, convivial
spirit natural to it. And if OPP
portunity is seized at the height
of the tide, the end of life will
certainly be enviable.
MONDAY, AUGUST 26, 1916
--Today's native is shrewd and
penetrating, with a steadiness and
gravity of manner that viii often
be misunderstood. The methods
of thought will be very just. but
mathematical and hard. lacking
emotional qualities. There is no
indication of great fortune, per-
haps owing to Incidence, or a
lack of executive ability or pos
sibly inability to make ones self
understood.

could boiler like symphony of

The elaborate attentions she
received are usually reserved
for rich dowagers with property
and jewels, bonds and legacies

ly possessions, aside from a
sparse and moth-eaten wardrobe
of completely outmoded. circa
1902 clothes, consisted of worm
chewed highboy with one leg
missing and no handles on its
drawers, so that it had to be -pIac-
ed in the center of her room and
the drawers pushed out from the
back, an almost wholly worn
through alligator pocketbook, a
horse-chestnut that her second
husband had used as a good-luck
charm, two cracked china dogs.
a maternity corset purchased in
1923 because she had wanted TO
see what the DANCED thing looked
like. feather bolster patched at
both ends, and usually about fiji
teen cents in cash.
Prided Grandson's Picture
And. of course. her pride and
JOY, the picture of her grandson
Len. This was a large, amateur
ishly drawn, staring charcoal por-
trait resting on a discolored bam-
boo easel. Aunt Matte had the
distinction of being the only per-
son alive who could look at that
picture without blanching, finch
ing and feeling the urgent need
of a stiff drink Immediately.
Many visitor had nasty mo-
ment upon viewing that picture.
Aunt Matte always showed it to
everybody who came in the
house. explaining that it was the
living and splitting image of her
most beloved grandson, who. in
Aunt Mattie's own words, was
kilt in the Spanish-American
Waw." This was another case
in which no one bothered. or
dared. to contradict her, though
everybody knew the true facts of
the matter, which. briefly, were
that Len. turned down by the To-
cal draft board in Norfolk, was
wandering around drunk and in
advertently pitched head-first in
to an open manhole, where he
PROMPTLY broke his neck. But
be it understood that Len was
no less a hero in his Grandma's
eyes because of the manner of
his death than had he carried Me
Confederate Standard itself atop
San Juan Hill.
