While a Dale half moon spread
its beautifully picturesque umber
irlow o'er the brincy deep the
barnacled barge Tuscarora man
ncd by a crew of twelve sea as
piritig sailors donned colors set
sails and departed from Port Op
timist for an early fall cruise into
foreign waters.
Swelling the salty breeze the
banner bedecked barge sped 'til
the snow capped pinnacle of the
towering mountain peaks sur-
rounding Yunkins Cove appeared
in the dim haze of the distance.
Then with the Skipper shouting
orders the iiiralc crew safely an
chored the sea serpent in the
quiet azure depth fo Father Ncp

by a professor of the Oklahoma
University. There were twenty
questions and sixteen of the twen-
ty questions wcrc answered iden-
tically alike word for word. And
they wcrc across the room from
each other too
. The twins like mathematics but
detest any form of Home Econom-
ics. Their grades arc always the
same teachers arc never able to
tell which deserves what.
Thcv were veil leaders and
football queens in high school.
Their mail often comes to them
with just Maxinc and Gcraldino
writcn on the envelope. They like
pics and cukes especially Karo-
Nut pic. As for olives and car-
rots it was hard to learn to like
them. And spinach and aspara-
ens never!
If you don't believe they are
alike let them tell ou they nl
ways sleep in the same positions
and awake ut the sumc time!
Twins will be twins.
Hut the men must be considered
Elmer and Dchncr Drown espe-
cially. They've been being con-
siticreu lur uvvi iwiici.-ii ;

ing their name so they choose
brown as their favorite color.

one wears only a ring ami the1
other only a watch.
Like the McCalcbs Elmer and
Dclmcr wcrc yell leaders in high
school and both worked in a drug
store during holidays Thcv ad-
mit they aren't so much alike in
their ways and thoughts as the
girls but each like to be with the
other all of the time nnd their
mail is always read between them.
No secrets in that brotherhood.
Last year Dclmcr had measles
so Elmer met classes for him
as long as they weren't supposed
to be in the same classes and un-
til Elmer took the measles. No
one knew the difference.
The Browns too change on
dates. At least they have a few
times. Elmer is often Delmer and
Delmer is often Elmer but there
is always a casli payment includ-
ed. Freshmen the Homahs Jor-
dan und Utlcy aren't twins.
They'd just like to be maybe.
