BY CAROLYN LLOYD

.'That's the coolest cart I ever
saw, Mr. Harrison, was one of
the comments that greeted U. S
Mailman ]. P. Harrison as he APP
peared on his route with his latest
effort to make the life of post
man more bearable. Yessir, Bella
ven now has a real cool postman-
or should it be "real gone? I'm
not really we'll up on modern slang
In the literal sense, at least, he is
bound to be a lot cooler than he
was, for now, instead of carrying
the mail in heavy leather pouch
on his back, he pushes it in q little
two-wheeled cart. Officially, the
cart is a caddy cart, but there is
evidently no regulation by the u.
S. Post Office forbidding employ
ees to borrow ideas. He has to
borrow them because, with all the
modern work-saving devices, none
has been invented to take the place
of walking for the postman. He
still must brave the elements on
foot in all kinds of weather and
rely on strong back and good
feet to see him through.
Now if ]. P. could just prevail
on the city fathers to pave every
street on his route, he could use
roller skates or a child's scooter,
but it doesn't seem likely that such
an ideal condition will come about
soon. Therefore, he must use his
ingenuity to make things easier
than they are, and who can blame
him. He has injected little novel
ty into the old familiar picture of
the postman on his rounds, and
has given his patrons something
to talk about, as we'll. The faithful
mongrel that follows him on his
rounds must be puzzled by the
contraption, but he still trails
along to see that no sassy dog
bothers his adopted master.
The membership roll in the
Absent indeds Anonymous is still
open. Mrs. Nancy Midgette, of the
Coastland Times staff in Manteo,
according to her own account in
this paper is certainly eligible;
and certainly no one could ques-
ton the eligibility of a visitor
from Weldon who repeatedly put
her pocketbook in the refrigerator
and the steak in a dresser drawer.
Not only that, she wore her dress
hind-part-before to church and
didn't even discover it until she
returned home. 1t isn't just the
Belhaven atmosphere that does it,
then.
Once before l have expressed
my dislike for the use of fancy
language when plain will do. Now
l have seen the supreme example.
In a printed card of thanks a
woman thanked her friends for
their kindness to her husband dur
ing his confinement and expira-
tom. That use of the word" con-
finement" might bring forth nu-
merous comments. From "expira-
ton" 1 could only conclude that
her husband is dead, that he ex-
pired, breathed his last-but "his
expiration, that's just too much.
All well, it's time to go to the
grocertorium and purchase viands
for the sustenance of my family
and the production of epicurean
delights. You see, it's not jealousy
