no man who has done an honest day's toil need be a gourmet. Continuing our honest toil, we struggled to keep the kerosene out of such food as we did have—a struggle that is always very much worth the effort—and we didn't quite succeed. The aftertaste is unforgettable; almost immortal. I wanted to tell the boys more, but remembered in time that the less a father says to his own sons, the more they are likely to remember. Advice comes best from those who cannot command. I will just disclose to you a few of the things I should like to have told them. They will never know what is said here for they long ago made it a point never to read anything I write if there is the slightest possibility that I'd like them to. |
