..WHY DIDN'T COP make bats butterfiies?"
w Mandy suddenly asked me one day. Her
questions always demand grave consideration
which her impotence with the slow processes of
the adult mind will not tolerate Mandy is eight
but state her age with reservations because she
is sometimes fourteen or older, and sometimes
four or younger. Il want to hang by my heels

adding, bang, bang!"

her, but she was of on another tack
God didn't have to give turtles Shells" she
told me.
Here | thought | had her, but she does not
corner easily in debate. Turtles are very slow"

could hide in, to protect themselves from their
enemies"
He could make them faster" Mandy said
why didn't he make them faster?" She had me
there. realized, for the first time, that if God
had made porcupnes and skunks faster, they
wouldn't need their quilts and vtriol, respectively
why didn't God give us wings?" was her
next question, and | began to lecture on that
point.
I'VE have developed wings | told her, but
she cut me off with that topic sentence.

why didn't God give dogs glasSeS?"
For days had been practcing some questions
of my own for Mandy, and served them all at
once why don't foxes wear foxgoves? Why
don't COWS wear cowslips? What was it Katy did?
If cowboys round up cows, why don't bulldogs
round up bulls? Why don't badgers play the
badger game? Why aren't there rats racing in this
rat race?"
Katy who?' Mandy asked, her quick femi-
nine instinct for scandal making her ignore all
the other questions.
You're too young to know who she was and
what she did, and I'm too old to care, said
My daddy says the bugs are going to get every
body" Mandy repeated this prophetic piece of
eschatology indifferently, as if it didn't matter.
Your father was referring to recent an
nouncement by some scientists that insects are
increasing alarmingly on this planet told her.
1T is my opinion that they are increasing because
they are alarmed by the steady increase of human
beings

over my head. What bear?" she said.

I'VE planned this trip more
than 1S months ago." he told a
news conference, "and we did
not know that we would be
here at this difficult time. It
is providential that we should
be here just now, where the
two worlds meet"
He added:
Berlin is the most-prayed-

The Communists have at
tackled him as a representative
of Wall Street" and "Ameri-
can Imperialism" Communist
police have questioned choir
singers and other helpers re-
cruited in East Berlin for the
meetings.
There we're unconflrmed re-
ports that East Berliners had
been forbidden to attend. There
is normally no interference
with Berliners moving between
the two parts of the city. Since
early this month, the Commu-
nistS have required West Ger
mans on visits here to get a
special pass to go into East
Berlin.
II am not here as an Ameri:
can." said Mr.. Graham when
asked about the Communist at
tacks. Il am a representative
Of the Kingdom Of God. I have
only been in Wall street three
times. Once I preached there
and called on people to repent
and come to Christ, which is
the same message I will give
here"
Posters in West Berlin have
announced Mr.. Graham's visit
for the past two weeks, but the
Communists authorities have
not allowed any in their part
of town. Reports that they had

Berlin were not confirmed.
Doesn't Want Incident
Mr.. Graham said he would
very much like to visit East
Berlin, but aides said he prob
ably would avoid going in order
not to provoke a political in
cident. Last week, United States
Ambassador Walter C. Dowling
raised a minor furry by acced-
ing to the request of an East

policeman" to identify himself
before driving in. Officials of
the major Western powers
usually ignore Communist East

hearts whatever social order
we live in," Mr.. Graham said,
insisting that his visit is not
political.
