Strange But True

I By Ii". ll. MacArthur (Concluded) Happy are those reminiscences

of, childhood which include among their treasures pleasant recollect- ions of an understanding grand- mother. Grandma had seen so many generations of boys a.nd slris grow up to be men and wo- men that she had a tender toler- ation for the failings incident to childhood. '

I can still recall quite clearly that she had a lenient eye for traces of muddy little boots on the stairs. sliding down the stair -11:11, the pile of whlttllnga on the kit- chen floor, and the toy horses and other wooden llvcstock which had to be stabied and fed under the dining room table.

Grandma had so many boys of ,her own, pulling through all kinds of sm'a.pes with comparative im- munity, that she entertained little anxiety about many things which troubled my mother” and made her scoldings a thorn in the side of my brothers and me. Grandma did not expect us boys to drown every time we went to bulthe in the little creek that meandereo across our farm: she did not scold us for jumping in the haymow for fear of breaking our limbs, nor object to rides on gra.ndda.d's knee above the sharp knives of the mowing machine; our tree, climbing antics never caused herl to blink an eye lush and the con-I sumption of unknown quantltiesl of green apples was not inquired into too closely, for she had learn- ed that the stomach of a boy could just about digest everything but fire. Indeed, grandma was a miviitly smart person. She didn't even censure the long-legged girls as "Tomboys" because they Join- ed with us boys in our childish pranks. l

. . . I when I.call up memories of grandma, I seem to see again the qualntly old-fashioned furniture of her room; the high-post bed- stead. the corner cupboard, the round candle stand, the roomy, arm chair, lzcm whose comfort-I able scat she spun for us many, many beau-tlf-ul fairy stories. These are among my most. cherished memories of childhood,

Though neither arrogant nor fault-finding. she often spoke of the easily exhausted vitality of the rising generation. and would often point. moral by telling what a day's work used to mean when she was a girl.

The comparison of housewife! duties, in those days and in these, is a striking one: if we carry it back to the grandimotliers of those now accounted elderly the dif- ference is amazing. Moat of the barn chores was women's work." In winter the men took over.

.

Grandma did not weave. as did her mother before her. The old loom stood silent and dusty in Granddads workshop. But. grand- ma. spun on the "little wheel.” I still can picture her in my mind's eye working the foot paddle and drawing out the strands of woo'. with deft and skillful fingers, while I uked her to let me have a. go at the spinrung. From he: heap of carded wool came all the iamilyis mittens and socks. The hum of the wheel never interfered with the family's social conversa- lion, and knitting just seemed playwork to grandma, to be done after the family gtsthered in the house for the night. I have even seen her plying her needles while she walked about the house doing little odds a.nd ends of work. In those days "man's work was from sun to sun. but women's work was never done."

The very starch that stiffened grandma's cap and cuffs of state. as well as the soap used to make them white, were made right in the horns. '

O C 0

If grandma were alive today I fancy she would wonder what housewives of our day do with their time, or being the wise wo- man that I think she was. she would probably thank the good Lord for bringing about the aboli- tion of household slavery. A more puzzling question for her descen- danis is how the women of these days accomplished so much that their hands found to do; but it can be explained very simply. While the life of those days was arduous it was simple and un- complicated. There were few lux- uries. few pressing social claims, smau thought of the necessity of self-culture and the need of mak-, ing up one's mind on the pro- blems of the age.

whether life in Grandma's days was or was not a better oinethan the modern life of today, it. is at least gone past recall - no more to be called back than last year's snow to the meadows. Where one

Dr. Lyle B. Burst of the Uni- versiiy of Utah supervised the study and designing of plans for such a locomotive. Whether it can be put to practical use depends upon ”an unknoun factor . the 1)i'lLE' of uranium, which is classi-

iiui iniorniulion," he bold news- paper men. The locomotive, driven with

steam-produced electricity, would look much like those now in use. Box-st estimated it would cost. Si.20U.00U, develop 7,000 horsepower. or as much power as four of the newest" diesel power units.

The steam would be obtained from a small atomic reactor in the first of two B0-foot sections of the ioroniotive. Electricity generated by a turbine would turn the wiieals. The second section would carry radiators and fans to get lltl of the heat produced by thl reactor.
