A reading taken from
' The Greatness of God' by H. E. Foadick
Reader, Frank Simguineau
Do manners make the mid-century man? Or have they become meaningless to him? Does etiquette now equal non-etiquette?
How should the well-brought-up beatnik treat his girl friend? Or his mother? How should he rid himself of the unwelcome guest? Should he wash? If so, how much?

Part 6
The year 1866 is nearly at an end. The fleet of armed frigates sent out by Washington continue to scour the seven seas for the mysterious monster. The Admiralty in London thinks that the Americans may be mistaken. Perhaps the enormous Thing may not be a prehistoric monster but an unknown kind of machine which can move about underwater! A theory greeted everywhere with hoots of derision.
