This Week’s Cover
- While Mr. and Mrs. Childweller look over the closet space, the renting chap looks over Junior. Especially Junior’s red thatch, possibly indicative of an excitable temperament. Look what may come into my life, the man reflects, and me with no clause in the lease re people who live in glass apartments shouldn’t throw or otherwise propel stones. Maybe the lad just propels paper wads—and what a silly speculation that is. Well, the renter probably will accept Junior on the ground that helping to propagate the human species is an admirable philanthropy, as it makes more people to make more business for renters. Painter Sargent fancies Junior is musing that from this window maybe he can bag a squirrel or two. With that slingshot he could bag Goliath.
