FAMOUS FABLES
BY E. E. EDGAR

LACKED UP: Scientist Charles
Darwin was a bundle of ailments
His body was racked by ache.
and pains. The mere act of sit.
ting down became a form of tor.
ture.
Darwin did most of his read
ing while seated In a chair. Be-
fore he lid ease himself into
ut, however, the seat had to be
covered with pillows, else the
pain in his back would be un-
bearable.
Once he was seated, his feet
would just barely touch the floor
This caused another pain. So a
footstool would be placed.
This would bring on his back
ache again. More pillows had tc
be added. Then another support
would be necessary under hi:
feet.
When engrossed in a lengthy
scientific tome, it was not un.
usual for him to be lacked ur
half way to the ceiling before he
finished his reading.
PERSUASION: Comedian w
C. Fields was asked to make a
speech at a woman's club. He
turned down the offer.
What's the matter?' he was
asked. Don't you approve OF
clubs for women?"
YES" replied Fields, "but

Aside from its international
ASPECTS, however, the McKeldir
