A playful family moment at a gas station unfolds as the narrator overhears a gas price of 44 3/4 cents and a humorous, dated comment by the father about the gas lady, ending with the mother correcting the scene.
The scene centers on a chaotic family meal with humorous bickering and teasing. The father criticizes manners and jokes about the hamburger and a fortuitous coin in a bin while the mother negotiates a long wait for food and a quirky, frugal dining plan. The piece closes with a political column note on a legislative session and racing bills.
Two months after opening, the fifth and final session closed amid dull, puzzling proceedings. Pre-election expectations of sharp opposition and heated debate failed as the opposition rarely showed zeal and merely rehashed old issues.
