They are very heavily populated, not the freedom ,we have. We need to know more than our own country. We should see people as our brothers, be friends with them, send help to build a future, reach but and help other people to live. There is just one God and He is Love.

W H ILE INTRODUCES •- THE NEW LIGHT WEIGHT ADVANCED SUPER ZIGZAG FREE ARM WITH EVERY FEATURE SIMPLIFIED Ar'zeell One of my recurring dreams is that all my teeth are crtimbling, and breaking off like toast. It's a- terrible nightmare and I alWays wake up sweating, jam sonic fingers into my mouth and groan with relief when I find the teeth are still there, and with pain because I have bitten my fingers. Today I feel that I'm having a daymare, rather than a nightmare. Last night at dinner, one of my front teeth came away in the midst of a glorious dishrOf curried chicken. I love curried chicken, and this time my wife had excelled her self, whatever that means. but I am not keen on curried chicken with teeth in it, even when they are my awn. However, this incident did not alarm me, unduly or otherwise. It was only my peg tooth. Every couple of months it comes unscrewed or whatever, I carefully comb it out of the soup or spaghetti, trot down to the dentist with it clutched in my hand; he dusts it off, pops it back in, cements it in place and I'm ba It in business, stuffing my guts. But this mornin munching my matins (in this case a ripe yellow pear that tasted, as so much fruit does nowadays, like wet cardboard), I crunched on something hard. Now I know that pears do not have either bones or stones. They have pips. And I knew that this particular pear did not even have a pip, because my loving wife, knowing I was one tooth short from the night before, had disembowelled it. Right, another &ant tooth broken off, just beside the missing peg. There was no pain in either case. Just a sense of horror and self-disgust , as I have in the nightmare. It's bad enough to pull a filling when eating toffee, or to snap off a bit of molar when you crunch down on an unsuspected beef-bone, or even to have an aching tooth yanked. But to have one break off when eating an • over-ripe pear ... Yeeeccchi • • I still wasn't plunged into the depths. Some people go for years with no hair on their heads (and plant articles in magazines suggesting baldies are more virile). Others go all their lives with no brains to speak of. I reckoned I could' get through the day without two teeth. And I did. But by noon, the tip of my tongue was raw and shredded, from thrusting it into that jagged crevice . (Crevasse?). Bet I was cop ing. And I knew that if I Bustled down to my friendly dentist, he would squeeze me in seintehow, and 'patch me tip sornehoW. slititildlitiVe known better. From my air feta dayk, Imo* that disasters always come in threes. Right in the middle of a brilliant lesson on the use of four-letter words in Victorian literature(, such as "legs"), somebody, somehow, rammed a red-hot needle into a tooth in my lower jaw-bone, four teeth and two spaces from the missing ones.. Almost screamed aloud. I screamed silently The needle was removed. Two minutes later, that red-hot needle plunged into the tooth directly above (I have two teeth on that side, upper and lower, and they are fairly friendly with each other, because there is nobody else around.) This time I couldn't help it. I emitted, "Huh!", as though someone were driving a stake through my heart. I sagged into my chair, white and shaken. You can always depend on students. They rally around when things are tough, despite their outward cynicism. They're all ,h earl inside that tough exterior. "I think the old sod's havenna hardatak. "Jeez, I hope he hazzen godour tests marked yet, I think I failed mine." "Maybe he's just 'godda bad hangover. Slap him in the face a coupla times and he might come around." I came out of it. of course, and preteneded i was enacting Heathcliff's grief in Wuthering Heights. When they looked as though they didn't believe me, I curled back my bottom lip and snarled at thyrn with my new gap-toothed look. They shut up. When everything cooled down, I realized that my back teeth were merely expressing sympathy for my lost front teeth. It made them lonelier than ever. But they didn't have to shriek their sympathy at such volume. My whole jaw hai been aching for the remainder of this dark day, but the red-hot needle has cooled to a blunt instrument. As soon as I finish telling you this fascinating episode of a continued story called "One Man's Fangs," I'm going straight to the dentist, and have him rip every tattered remnant of bone out of my head. Then I am going up to the hospital and have the calcium chipped off my right footbone, my gall-bladder removed, just in case it ever acts up, a heart-pacer put in, and .three or four pints of blood, in the event of anemia. I might even have my ears pierced, just for the hell of it. I don't trust the old carcass any more. If my teeth start crumbling when Pm just a broth of a boy, who knows what bits and pieces may fall off when 1'11185 as I fully intend to be?
