Three comic stories from small-town America. In the title piece Mayor Dugan and the city council, solemnly receiving a landscape gardener’s plan for a new public park, cannot get their tongues round the word gondola. The other two follow the contents of Mr. Billings’s pockets and a household’s encounter with its first burglar.
