Hey! Did you know that
Mickey Mouse was born this
date ir 1923? That makes him
practically marrying age. Wonder
if Minnie knows. Gee, he's a
great guy, loved by kids and
grownups alike. A movie always
seems better to me if there is
cartoon with Mickey.
He must also be quite a rich
little fellow. Did you ever try to
count up the number of articles
made all for kids, of course,
with the Mickey Mouse label?
They are really countless. Well,
congratulations Mickey, we all
hope you live to be older than
Methuselah. Times may change,
and centuries turn, but people
always like a nice little guy
like you.
