I've been trapped by my subcon- scious, Quite a trick for a fellow who hardly knows what "subconscious" means. It happened this way. I came home tired and weary from a day at the typewriter, to find my young daughter gay and bright-eyed, dressed in finest party clothes. "What's up?" 1 asked. "Another party," she said, "I'm living it up these days, eh Dad?" For some reason those gay words, "living it up," stuck with me like burrs to sheep. To my own horror, a couple of nights later, I heard myself say to my wife," Honey, let's go out some- where tonight. Let's live it up a little --we're getting stodgy." My wife gave me a long, puzzled stare. "For the first time in weeks you get your head out from behind that newspaper, and then you suggest that I'm getting stodgy. What hap- pened to you?"

I've figured out what happened. Those "living it up words got hooked up in my subcon- scious with 'notions of youth and bright eyes and gaity. That's what happened. I was trapped. Thinking back en it, I believe a touch of "living it up" would be good for us all. Not because circuses are bigger or picture shows more thrilling, but because after a couple of weeks of traipsing around the old easy chair looks even better than it did before.
