Just as she is thrilling right up
to the shoulder frOm the cool,
firm imprint of the count's lips
on her mitt, she -looks down and
discovers that the cool, firm lips
have.' suddenly become the cold,
runny nose of her daughter, who
is wiping it on the back of mum-
my's hand:
Maybe, the factory hand, busy
all day, putting square pegs in
round ' holes, begins -toying ' with
what he'll be doing if his sweep-
stake ticket comes through. In his
mind's eye, he is lolling on his
balcony in Acapulco's .poshest ho-
tel, overlooking • the swimming
pool, while a beautiful...Spanish
job with a rose in her hair whis-
pers gentle 'stuff in his ear.
It's a • dangerous shock to .his.
system when he suddenly realizes
that the face so near his, own is
not the. Spanish lovely, but the
straw boss, and the tender mur-
murs have ,become a moose -like
bellow that wants to know "what

• Even the Canadian farmer, a
solid fellow most of the time, has
his weak moments. Like when he
starts dreaming that he had a
thousand head of cattle, instead
of twenty; and he sold them at
forty cents a pound, instead of
eighteen. Clear as crystal, he can
see himself and Maw heading
dawn the highway for a long hol-
iday in the new Cadillac.
It does him no good at all to
wake up and find that the Cadil-
lac has been transformed into a
tractor, and he's heading straight
for the stone fence.
For years, I've had these
dreams: riding -in a ricksha in
•Rangoon, tossing silver dollars to
the natives; dropping in. on Prin
cess Margaret and Tony for a
cocktail; flying to Rio for carni-
val time. But lately, they have
solidified into one recurrent dream
which is more like an obsession.
It comes almost nightly at this
time of year.
In the -dream, my wife ' says,
"When are you going to get those
storm' windows off, have you any
intention of cutting the lawn this
year, what do, you intend, to do
about that
I just tell her to shut up. This
is how I know it's a dream. ,Then
I reach out nochalantly, push the
bell -button beside my chair. A
man appears arid asks respectful-
ly, 'Yes, sir?"
•
1 tell him, 'John, get those
storm • windows off. And 1 don't
mean tomorrow. The grass needs
cutting, and •do something about
propping up( the fence. Now; get
cracking."
, He says, "Right away, sir." 1
lean back; light a dollar cigar,
and splash a little more soda in-
to my brandy. That's the dream,
in essence. There are variations
on it, depending on seasons: Some-
times. tell John to shovel the
walk,• and I splash a little more
brandy in my soda, but it's the
same dream. •
You can have your yachts, your
Acapulco balconies, and your Cad -
lilacs. 'Just give me John.
