THE VEGETABLE
or
from President to postman


By
F. SCOTT FITZGERALD

Any man who doesn’t want to get on in the
world, to make a million dollars, and maybe even
park his toothbrush in White House, hasn’t
got as much to him as a good dog has—he’s
nothing more or less than a vegetable.
From a Current Magazine.
