think he even knew where his own
dimmer switch was.

Another area in which my fath-
er was king was the cellar, as we
used to call the recreation room.
I don't think I ever heard him
utter a blasphemous word above
ground. And I don't think I ever
heard any other kind of word
while he was wrestling with the
old furnace. As a youngster, I
would put one ear against the fur-
nace pipe, and listen with awe
and horror, as Dad ripped out
some oaths that would curdle the
blood of a buccaneer.

I wouldn't have you think that
my father was a bad man. Iiewas
the soul of gentleness and kind-
ness with peole. But inanimate
objects could rouse in him a bur-
serker fury that must have come
with the touch of Norse blood in
his ancestry. Should he strike his
head on a cupboard door, he was
apt to tear the whole thing off
the wall and reduce it to kindling.

If he got a sliver in his finger,
while working on something, he
was quite capable of snatching a
saw and cutting out the entire
chunk of offending wood. Ignor-
ing the resulting gap in a table,
or a boat, he'd pant. triumphantly:
"There, you dirty skunk!" as he
finished.

"GOOD FOR YOU,
JULIE !"
A bank manager is interested in all
his customers.
No depositor is too young, no account
too small, no financial problem too
minor to receive his attention and
consideration.
He likes dealing with people and is
trained to help them in every way
he can. He's a good man to talk
things over with—not just because he
knows a lot about banking, but be-
cause he can be counted on to apply
that knowledge and experience to the
needs of all his customers.
To him, banking is the opportunity
to work with all sorts of people and,.
through bank services, to help with
your problems, your hopes and plans..

My Dad could take a lot of hard
going and suffering. He proved it
especially during his last illness.
But he had a genius for exaggerat-
ing small hurts. Should he cut
himself while shaving, he didn't
bleed. It "spurted out in quarts,"
If he knicked a finger with a
knife, he'd vow: "I tore the end
off my finger." If he scratched his
hand on a nail, he had "ripped the
whole side out of my hand."

We laughed at him, but we loved
hini. I hope my kids remember me
as fondly as I remember my Dad.
