Right here it's reflected in the invisible action of the wilderness, in the birth and death of animals and plants. Now that's the astounding part. As a lad I disdained toying with tadpoles and frogs.

"I think Jack Hemingway knows what the truth of Pappy 's comments were back then," Mrs. Wells said. "I think we'll enjoy talking about those times. Lord, at least I hope he'll enjoy it." Bringing the two together was an idea of Doug Crichton, editor of American Way, the magazine of American Airlines. r 1 au- g mid-195- position, the tourist mecca spreads its man-mad- e charms.
