      THE

      BIG TOMORROW

      BY PAUL LOHRMAN

      There are certain rare individuals in this world who seem bereft of all common sense. These are the people who set their eyes upon an objective and immediately all intelligence, logic, good advice, unsolvable problems, and insurmountable obstacles go completely by the boards. The characters we refer to are obviously just plain stupid. What they want to do, just can't be done.

      I try to do my job, Mr. Lake.

      You do that—and more. What are the figures, Lucy?

      "We're in desperate shape. We have nine thousand, four hundred and twenty dollars in the
