Certain members of the Animal
Kingdom (Insect Division) and
yours truly are not on speaking
terms. Have just finished dueling-
with my pencil-one bee who flew
in the car and had more fun wan
dering around the windshield -
and then he turned on his back and
got playful. Finally convinced him
Il was not amused at such antics
Stopped at one of the shops -
came out to the Garland there was
a yellow jacket romping around
the windshield. So-again / EN-
ployed the pencil-and finally after
about five minutes-poked him out
the window.
Frankly-don't feel victorious al
adjust scared and exhausted -
and so, let's by all means be off to
the shops-and yours truly will
surely have the windshield sprayed
with DOT or whatever it takes &c
convince creatures which sting-to
60 elsewhere.

Ing the little kid crossing Flagler
on his bike-'cause he was bent
low over the handle bars and was
really making knots.
1t was one of those rare instances
Of grace and motion which cause
one to pause and admire and then
! saw he was tightly clutching I'M
der one arm - a coconut with a
young palm Sprouting from it.
Looked for all the world like a
Saturday Evening Post cover by
