merrily barking little puppy dog.
KIM she cried on cue, in a
voice as warm and sweet as a but
tered muffin. You're home early,
darling! Is anything wrong?"
1t took Mrs. Bellamy but seven
minutes to sIaighten out Mr.. Bel
lamy's problems.
As wise and sympathetic and
tactful a wife never stood before a
microphone. But TINS done. Bill
Frome led the Bellamys into the
affairs of the Marstons across the
street. From the Marstons, Bill
Frome was adroitly maneuvering
his way to the subject of tea. The
half hour was nearing its end. All
might have been we'll if Bill. by
some fiendish chance, had not used
one particular word. The trouble
with Dick Marston -" so Mr..
Bellamy read all too heedlessly
from the script - is the way he
repeats every word his wife says.
Why, he's no better than a parrot!
LONG months afterwards Mrs.
Bellamy was to wake up in the
night and wonder about that mo-
ment. To her friends and asso-
ciates she could only explain that
something snapped" Gone was
reason. 1t did not matter that this
was the script writer's word, and
not Mr.. Bellamy's 1t did not
matter that several hundred thou
sand people, including Eustace
Tasker of Tasker's Tea, Inc, were
listening. She addressed the man
she had married and she addressed
him alone.
Parrot" she exclaimed with a
shrill and spine-shattering scorn.
Isn't our life horrible enough that
you have to 60 and bring a borrot
into it,"
Mr.. Bellamy's glance sped wildly
from the script to Mrs. Bellamy
to the control room and back to
Mrs. Bellamy. Desperately he
worked his eyebrows by way of
admonition and counsel, at the
same time essaying one of his fa-
miliar and endearing laughs.
You almost scared me-" he
ventured. then. on a jovial note.
Thought for a minute we really
had a parrot around the place"
There was something in Mrs.
Bellamy's eyes that he could not
yet quite trust. He went rapidly
into another laugh, a shade less
than carefree.

Now he said. "A jokes a
joke, dear - but it would 60 bet
ter with a spot of tea"
Not the smoothest transition in
the world but a hasty reference to
the script put him back on the
straight road.
How about it, honey? Join me
in a third cup?
''Nor' CRIED Mrs. Bellamy, still
in that strange, mad mood. Go
and drink your own jittery, clat-
terry sound effects! And wouldn't
even join you if we had any teal!
And what's more and besides, /
had my last cup of tea when was
eleven years old and I've never
wanted one sincew
Mr.. Bellamy's laugh came up
fast, and the music came up faster.
Behind the glass wall of the con-
troll room were stricken faces and
frantic gestures. Further uptown
the scrawny hand of Mr.. Eustace
Tasker was reaching, even then,
for the nearest telephone.
Mrs. Bellamy cared naught for
all this. She was stalking out of
the studio. and Mr.. Bellamy was
stalking after her, both of them
in such a cold and terrible temper
as to be intimidating to all by
ISLANDERS.
They forgot about the library.
They went directly to the hacienda
living room where MIR. Bellamy
found his little bar locked and the
key misplaced, the maid gone and
the parrot singing a disreputable
ballad of the sea. So they went to
the kitchen where the only poten-
tial drink k-and Mr.. Bellamy most
urgently needed a drink - was a
draught of Tasker's tea. 1t suited
a bitter and satiric mood in both of
them to rip open the package and
put kettle on.
But the water in the kettle boiled
away as they glared at each other
across the kitchen table.
Il don't carer said Mrs. Bel
lamy, for the twenty-fifth time. Il
don't care. I don't carer"
Mr.. Bellamy spaced his words
as carefully as if they had been
sticks of dynamite.
Il suppose you realize" he said.

Results of 1949 x-Ray campaign of the Greater Hartford Tubercu- losis and Public Health Society were announced recently by Dr. James Hennessey, chairman of the Medical Advisory Committee of the Society.
 Of a total of 3,14s x-Rays taken in Hartford during the campaign, there were thirty-nine persins showing evidence of clinically sig nificant tuberculosis who were .I1- aware of it. These persons have been sent letters advising them to see their doctors and notification has also been sent to the doctors. The entire campaign was financed by the sale of Christmas seals. 'The large number of clinically significant tuberculosis cases dis
 covered in the x-Ray campaign
 certainly shows that the survey
 has been worthwhile" Dr. Hennes-

nice it seems to be with you adults

very nice adults and behaved your
selves in every way. Howya-Doon,

HOWYA-DOON-Aw gosh, GER

Mr.. Smith.
SMITH, thought not. That's
fine. What happens to adults who
lick their platters clean?
HOWYA-DOON- get gout,
indigestion, stomach acidity, rheu-
matism, double chins, heartburn
and everything. Gee. their diet gets
all shot to pieces, Mr.. Smith, and
they get fat and their clothes look
awful on 'em.
SMITH-Right. So what is the
proper way for grownups to behave
at meals?
HOWYA-DOON-A that's easy,
Mr.. Smith. They do just what !
do, lay off any kind of food that
tastes good!
SMITH-Anything that appeals
to the taste, eh?
HOWYA-DOON-Sure. If it's ap-
petizing, it's no good. All nice
grownups who want their children
to be proud of them will just go
for carrots, beets. spinach and
things like that.
SMITH, by chance you get
something on.your plate that tastes
swell and that isn't fattening, is it
okay to eat it all?
HOWYA DOON-Aw, no! A good
little adult always carries a calory
chart and makes himself pretty
miserable figuring up the calories
in everything he eats. I hope all
you grownups do this.
SMITH-So do I, Howya. And

would cost DR.. Price his practice.
The pity was, DR.. Price would

Though it was so many years ago.

that flooded his face remembering

and suggested that maybe the heart

ables was too strong.

He looked again at the prescrip-
