for example, who
‘ doesn't fall and skin his knees anymore and
carrying critters in his pockets? I had something happen to me Christmas at home in Hammond. that took at least 20 years off my life, It all began with a loose button on my hip pocket. ; Christmas, you know, wouldn't mean a great deal if I didn’t go home, eat Ma's cooking, assure her that I'm keeping good hours, eating well, éte. Oh, and lately, this has been added: “Yes, Ma, there are a lot of nice girls in Indianapolis: Yes, you're right qabout settling down. Yes, I know several fine girls. It takes a little time, Ma. You can't rush into marriage. No, I don't want to be old, lonely. like Uncle Andy.” La
ANYWAY, Christmas morning, for some strange reason, my left hand went to my hip pocket. From force of habit, probably. Besides
noticing how flat my billfold was, I felt the hip--
pocket button. It was Hanging by a couple o threads. : ; : “Ma, the button on my hip pocket is loose,” I said, simply. Should have known better, “Come over here, let me see it.” = Before I could say she didn't have to bother, my mother had the button off' and was picking out the loose threads. “Get mé my sewing basket.” Sewing basket? The old sewing basket with all that junk in it? Still around here? Where is it? Why don't you get rid of that . .. ?
Se SHE brought her sewing basket and put it on
the dining room table, near the windows where
the light was good. The brown woven treasure chest, glass beads on the cover still shiny, hadn't changed. I thought some of the buttons had come off the long underwear that I used to hate to wear. I was right.
' Wasn't that big one there off the checkered
mackinaw? Yes. There was the familiar old thimble, the heavy scissors we kids dared not use to cut sticks and cardboard, the darning egg, numerous spools of thread and bits of elastic. “Turn around and hold still,” my mother said, giving a sharp tug which brought me into the position she wanted. : «oP
FROM THE CORNER of my eye I saw her lift the needle and thread it. How many times had she done that in her lifetime? How many socks and rips and tears had she mended? How many miles of thread had she used? . “Ma, do you remember how you used to make us summer underwear from Pillsbury flour sacks?" She stopped for a moment and looked into the distant corner. Then she checked the knot in the thread. I felt her hands grasp the pocket and
It Happened Last By Earl Wilson :
NEW YORK, Dec. 27—One thing that we keep being awfully glad about is that we were born in the little town of Rockford, O., which is so small that when one car goes down the street they have a traffic jam. : A lot of very big people, including Harry Truman and Gen. Eisenhower, and some women, too, like Joan Crawford, Jane Russell and Ginger Rogers, come from cities smaller than Chicago and Cleveland, and so we think there may be something to this idea of ours. Yeah, and I just remempered, 0. O. Mcintyre came from Gallipolis, O. Personally, we would like to go back there some day and get a little house, about six rooms, on West Market, and sit on the porch and not do anything but read and say hello to the folks that passed, which would be roughly six a day. Sometimes the fellow who runs our syndicate feels this would be an admirable idea, but we buy him a martini and he comes right out of it. ‘Somehow we feel that being born in a small
town we learned something about honesty that
they don’t teach in cities. eo 9 La - YOU TAKE the Bible. We happen. to have gone to a couple of colleges—it took two to do anything for us—but we didn’t specialize much in the Good Book at either one of them. However, one day when we were writing a column about Ingrid Bergman and were on the verge of being pretty rough on. her, something flashed into what we think of as our brain. It was a Biblical admonition, “Judge not that ye be not judged.” Well, we thought maybe this was a warning, and we w ent easy on her, and an awful lot of people wrote in and said they liked the column. In this business, not many people write to you unless they hate you. (Oh, we had some of that kind of letters, too. No use kiddin’ you.) " Then we were writing another piece and we
got another flash, and it was about the Bible, too ?
“Thou shalt not spread false witness against thy neighbor,” is the way this one went. * SO GEEMINY CRICKETS, we said, that’s one of the Ten Commandments, and here we write gossip items for the paper, and we never thought of it before. Ever since we were a little boy going to Methodist Sunday School, and later on, teaching a Bible class, we knew that commandment. But not until now did we ever think about it in connection with our job. - You can guess what we did." Started analyzIng, started justifying our position. See here, we said, it says “false witness.” That means if you spread correct witness it would be OK. So see that you get your items right, because If you don't you'll be violating the whichever Commandment it is, we can never remember; as well as maybe the libel laws. Anyway, you see, if we hadn't lived in a small town where you didn’t have much of anything, to
. do but go to Sunday School, we might have been
a less responsible reporter, assuming always that that’s possible. - . > OS NOT LONG AGO we were in Hollywood, at Bob Hope's radio program, and he got us up on
Americana By Robert C. Ruark
WASHINGTON, Dec. 27 — This just-past Christmas—in a frenzied way—has more nearly resembled the old-fashioned peace-on-earth, good-will-to-man celebration than any I recall for many years. hi z You begin to. suspect that people are finally scared stiff. of the future, and are discarding sophistication to turn back to the old simplicities. People I know have almost feverishly concentrated on fun, on presents, on calls to friends and consolidation of families, Seems to me there were more Christmas trees and more. decorations, more music and more accent on the meaning of the Yule. People with kids seemed a little more grateful ‘for their : presence this year. " One man of usually merry tendencies has marked gravely that the weight of the present and the uncertainty of the fut is so great that most folks are ashamed toe have much fun any more, unless they own some sort of sanctified excuse to be gay. Christmas this year, he says, was eagerly latched on to provide a short vacation from Korea and Sen. McCarthy, atom bomb and e¢conomics. This could be true : ? x

‘Mr. Hes Still a Boy
Still a boy . . . The years say differently but to his Ma, a man stays in knickers. the needle grated against the button. She pulled me closer, “Ma, would you like a new sewing basket?”
“Be quiet. There's nothing wrong with this basket. I bought it when I was married. If you don’t hold still I'm going to stick you with this needle.” . Ld PRETTY SOON the thread was being wound under the button. A few last flicks of the needle, a couple of knots and a deft snip of the scissors and the job was done. ] She turned me halfway around and inspected one side pocket, then the other. Before she could check my knees, I protested. “This is a new suit, Ma.” “Ha. Remember the Easter suit we bought you and you tore the seat out before you got to church?” “Well, IT was only a kid.” A TAP FROM BEHIND was the familiar sign that I was dismissed. What had changed around the house? If I had been wearing high shoes, black cotton stockings, short pants, suspenders and shirt with the round collar, it would have seemed pérfectly natural. The years away from home, the progress one feels he has made by the places and people he has met because of it, melted away. In front of your mother, you're still a little
boy. You stand still when you're told to do so and -

stage and kidded us about where Rockford is. He made out like it was just a little place. Afterward, when we went out the stage door there was a woman from our town waiting to say hello. She happened to be visiting there and wanted to tell us about how our old schoolteacher, Elsie Keopple, is. We are very fond of Elsie because she has this small town honesty. She reads the books we write and she says to keep on writing them—some day we may write a good one. She says the last one wasn't as bad as the first two. When we get one that pleases Elsie, we won't care what the New York Times thinks. : You may see what I mean about Rockford. When we told Bob Hope about the woman waiting for us, he said, “You see how small Rockford is— you have to go all the way from Ohio to California before you meet another one from there.” Right, Bob! .

Present World Crisis ‘Felt Everywhere’
research occasionally leads me—has been almost 100 per cent serious. People who ordinarily could not enumerate the number of states in America fretfully discourse on foreign policy. The qualities of our leadership, politically and militarily, are common parlor talk. “What do you think will happen?” is the universal quote. For the first time I can recall, a constant topic is the advisability of isolation, of complete with-
drawal from the broad international picture. This’
seems a trend that grows stronger every day. eo oS
IN ORDINARY times, Mr. Truman's heated defense of his daughter's singing talents, in his hard-mouthed letter to a music critic, would have evoked chuckles and a generally popular admiratioh for a man who was not too busy to take up for hig daughter, be he President or plumber. Not so in this instance. No one I ran into showed anything but grave concern for Mr. Tru. man’s. frivolity of action in a time so grave. The common folks do not feel that Miss Truman’s lack of control of sharps and flats has anything to do with executive activities at the momentor that her range and timbre are germane to the national problem of staying alive. At no time in World War II do I recall a comparable gravity and apprehension among the ‘public, of interest in serious ‘topics, of quiet
desperation, of futility and frustration. There is
an awareness of national and internatidnal problems that rides oddly on a deal more with sports and comic pages than with
