Story 268


              Rose







               In summer, Rose usually arose, several hours after the sun rose. Near
               the days cloze, she would dress in gardening clothes, to work her

               garden with a water hose, never raking hoes.


               Soon finished, she would get herself into a comfortable pose,to watch

               some TV shows. And soon again she would find greater repose and

               begin to doze.


               Change: cloze for close.



              Story 269

                                        Had He Known

               The cowboy should have known, not to ride the full-

               grown bucking roan, because sky high he was thrown.


               When he landed, he bellowed a loud groan. For four hours he

               could do nothing but moan.


               A whole week went by before his ill fate was finally known:

               soon he'd join his dead wife Joan.
