Alas, we never had a pump.
so no memories.
Our family was the first In

water.
Old Man Applefence, the
town banker who later was
put in jaiD had the first bath
room.
The whole town went to see

The tub was on legs. and
there was an electric light
hanging from a cord straight
above.
These newfangled things
brought dire predictions.
They were too good. eh. to

The town looked over the
Applefence's bath and called

Maybe something was missed,

@. What kind of moth does
the green. horned tomato worm
turn into?-G. F.
A. The sphinx moth. some
times called the hawk or hum
mingbird moth, is one OF the
stages in the tomato worm
cycle. The larva worm
matches from the moth egg,
sheds It's skin four or five
times as II grows. and eventu-
ally crawls into the ground
and turns into a pupa. From
this matches the adult moth,
a hairy insect which has wing
spread up to five inches and
which is often mistaken for a
hummingbird as 1t hovers over
flowers at dusk. slipping nectar
with its long tongue.

NEWS OF MUSIC

"Of course in this case"
said impresario Patrick Hayes,
I'VE are putting the show on
for other and more personal
reasons. But I feel that the
day of the multiple attraction
in the musical entertainment
field has just about arrived.
There just aren't enough of
the really big artists, whose
names are universal household
words. to go around.
Consider 10 or Is years
ago, and count the really
top-drawing artists of that
era who are still with us. Who
is there besides Rubinstein?
Gieseking is dead, Horowitz
doesn't play in public, Heifitz
is on leave of absence, Selma
bel is dead, John Charles
Thomas. Ponselle. Caruso, and
Martinelli are all either dead
or retired. Man is mortal. and
We don't expect to have our
artists with us forever. But
the thing is. there seem to be
no universal favorites, no
musical titans. to take the
place Of those of yesterday.
Serkin is no Harold Bauer
from the standpoint of box
Office, nor is Stern, one of the
greatest violinists alive today,
q Kreisler."
Greater General Interest
The head of the Hayes Con-
cert Bureau looked sad as he
considered all the people he
couldn't bring to Constitution
Hall. while we don't have the
big names any more" he con-
tinued, I'VE do have an even
greater general interest in
music. 1t may be that the

meter. No one heretofore has
done to the English 90 Ian
guage quite what Mr.. Kelly
has done where the credit is
all his. however. And the
music. which was mostly con-
trived by an obvious Pogo
phile. Norman Monath, fits
neatly. 1t only seems fair,
however. to warn that Mr..
Kelly wrote three of the tunes
himself. He also sings a couple
of them-not exactly accord
ing to his own notes.
1t would really spoil the fun
to go any further into the
why's. wherefores and what
nots of Mr.. Kelly's remarkable
musical venture. For the rec
ord. let it simply be said that
it would be hard to imagine
a more suitable performance
than that provided by several
soloists. a chorus and orches-
ira under Jimmy Carroll, and
of course, where pertinent, the
creator of it all himself; or a
more captivatingly written and
illustrated book. PogophileS

It is not this columns in
tention to stir needless doubts
in the minds of readers. If any
are stirred by the lines above.
let it be explained quickly that
they come from perfectly
respectable monograph record
and matching songbook-
both recently sprung (along
with the above-noted CYCLIC
tron) from the fertile brain of
Walt Kelly. creator of Pogo.
Pogo certainly needs no in
PRODUCTION to the readers of
this paper. 1t may. though,
come as a surprise to some to
find that the friendly and
modest little possum who has
become one of the leading per-
sonalitieS of the Nations comic
pages also has a musical bent.
Well. he has. Or anyway,
Walt Kelly has. The form it
has taken is a collection of 30
Songs of the Pogo" all of
which are in the new song
book. and Is of which are in
cluded on the accompanying
l2-inch record, both published
by Simon and Schuster. (The
record. in case anyone is Curl
Gus. costs $4.95; the book is a
dollar less. Both, in at least one
opinion, are worth more.)
Why songs of 1.-THE" Pogo?
This is somewhat mysterious,
unless the idea is to identify
the whole. rather astonishing
business as unique. That it
certainly is. although Mr..
Kelly acknowledges certain
debts. One song uses words
out of Alice in Wonderland"
and there are indefinable
illusions to Mother Goose"
and other folk traditions,
which gives a hint as to the
