fine way as to do away with any
belief that the fellas can't cook!)
and their brainchild "a rudely
crudely, but attractively bull
stove.
This stove consisted of a buckle
of water over which a large fry
ing pan was placed containing {
small amount of gasoline. Two
rods, which were put over thi!
frying pan, supported a SECOND
thinner frying pan in which the
hamburger was cooked.
At the touch of a lighted match
the gasoline leaped into flame
When the supply of the burning
liquid had been diminished, Piggy
promptly refueled the pan after
washing it to cool if off.
So thus a stove was made! Anc
the proceedings added untold mer
riment and hilarity to the party!
And even though the black smoke
billowed from the yacht and was
all over everywhere and blacken'
ing the faces of those along or
the journey as we'll as any make
up operator could prepare a cas-
for a minstrel, a most enjoyable
afternoon drew to a close as the
sun faded below the far horizon
and darknesr settled.
Lately melodious strains Of the
ever-favorite Happy Birthday
tune have risen above the clamol
and din and buzz of talking in the
high school cafeteria as variou:
MINIS students have let the secre'
slip and celebrated another birth
day.
Recently a real honest-to-good'
ness party, complete with blowing
OF candle and cake-cutting, took
place at one Of the cafeteria
tables.
1t all happened as Jackie God
ley turned eighteen and Buddy
Keever reached seventeen not
long ago. A beautiful cake, thick

by a tasty wish for a happy birth
day for both boys. The all stag

Though the wishes are belated,
I hope you two aging people have
many happy returns in the years
to come!
Wednesday was a rainy day, SO
the high school lobby was filled
with students seeking shelter from
the wet as the end Of the sixth
lunch period drew near.

Onions are space savers in the
small vegetable garden. Planted
in rows, they can be thinned to
provide. green onions for table use
during the season. At the same
time part OF the planting a be
left in the ground to mature for
winter use.
Growing onions from sets is an
easy method for the home gar
dener. Sets can be purchased by
the pound or half pound. A pound
will plant from 20 to so feet OF
row, depending upon whether all
are to be used for green onions
Or all are to be allowed to grow
Ito maturity. One has a choice OF
white, red or yellow varieties.
Rows for planting sets should
be made fairly deep, with the
corner of a hoe blade. If planting
for double-purpose use, place the
sets one inch apart as illustrated
lin the accompanying Garden
Graph. In a few weeks pull out
every other onion Tor use as early
green onions at the table. This
will leave the remaining onions
spaced two inches apart. Later,
again pull out every other onion
for table use, which will leave the
balance of the planting spaced
four inches apart, thus giving
them plenty of room to mature
for winter use.
Onions will thrive on the same
p:.ce of ground for a number ct
wears. unless the soil becomes in
tested with root maggots, in which
case the succeeding plantines
must be shifted to some other snot
in the garden. The best onions.

AS we whized by the small set
Elements, where church spires
reach to the sky and unlocking
residents of the nearby houses are
fascinated by the passing OF the
cars and the small children point
a grimy finger at each car as it
is counted, we found ourselves
once more in the open country
side where the landscape chang
ed to tall stately pines and gaunt
grey trees rising from the tan
grasses and sometimes the burnt
blackened floor Of the earth.
My heart fluttered when l look
ed from my window while passing
over a bridge to see nothing but
the water below, as if the heavy
coach were supported by the air
itself.
On my way DOM to South Caro-
lima from Wilmington, l settled
myself on the green plush seat,
hung my coat, and made myself
comfortable. Then l felt a gentle
tap on my shoulder; and as l
was pleasantly surprised to find
Joann Plastre asking me where /
was going and what l was doing
on the train and out of school.
After kidding her with the fan
~tastic tale that l was running
away from home, we became Sc
rious again and began to talk
about old MINIS friends.
1 soon discovered that she as
returning to Agnes Scott College
down in Atlanta after a too short
stay of five days home for spring
holidays: and 1 also learned from
her that Jene Ingram. who was
returning to the University of
Georgia on that same Thursday
afternoon who had been back
home in Wilmington for about a
two weeks spring vacation, was
way back in the Pullman car
near Joann.
l left her in Florence, S. c. to
journey onward, and l finally
reached Charleston late Thursday
after a most enjoyable train trip.

takes more than a cool breeze to
