I quote it in part:<br />"This is Mr. John K. Blogg, a wood carver, who, in spite of his 83 years, has never grown old. His hobbies are woodcarving and verse-writing, and, as he said in a letter sent recently to a West Australian friend, Father Time looks at him occasionally but, seeing he is still doing useful work, decides to leave him alone.
