DIARY ...
After 3 years, 8 months and 6
days, the beard is no more.
Started at the beginning of the
war, pledged to be kept until the
end, the whistle hadn’t stopped
blowing when the editor scooted
up the back alley to the privacy
of home, where Mrs. editor wield
ed the scissors to remove the
mass and the electric shaver fin
ished off the stubble. With time
out for before and after shots in
color, including a half-off and
half-cn view, the process took
over an hour.
A glance in the mirror and the
editor decided to stay home un
til after dark, which he did
The next day, having heard
that John Brodtkorb, local liquor
dealer, had also shaved a beard
of some years standing, he went
down to see him. They looked
each other over, told each other
he looked beautiful, and shook
hands.
j A lot of people had hoped for
a public shearing of the editor s
crop, and the editor had mulled
the idea over a bit, but the end
of the war and the mid-afternoon
announcement came so unexpect
edly that it wap decided to simp
ly shave and get it over with.
On the next day, as a matter
of historical lecord, the editor
! wrote down the remarks as made
by local people as they first view
ed his unadorned physiognomy.
The remarks follow, in the exact
order in which they were made.
There were others, of course, but
this sample is a picture of the
general reaction.
Here’s what they said:
A. Verle Collar—I’m speech
less.
R. R. Lunday—Where’s Bill?
Tom Frost, Sr.—No recogni
tion, no remark.
Mrs. W. Wheeldon—Who’s
the new man?
Mrs. Eugene Harding—I rec
ognized your voice.
Mrs. Gertrude Raumaker—
You did it.
Mrs. June Wilson—Oh, my
gosh.
Mrs. Viola Sipprell—(She cal
led another name but it wasn’t
who she said.)
Mrs, Orval Nye—It’s Bill.
