The doggondest, cheeriest little town in America!


The two aliens smiled at each other. Unaccustomed to oral conversation, they exchanged thoughts.


"The crypterpreter worked incredibly fast. The language is quite simple. It would seem safe to proceed. The sign indicates friendliness," thought Toryl, the older of the two Capellans.

"Sartan, our instruments tell us that anyone who discovers the ship," Toryl explained, a trifle impatient, "will show a remarkable degree of curiosity before they display any hostility."


Sartan agreed to dismiss his worries and the two aliens began to walk along the barren highway. Before them, at a great distance, they could see a cluster of small frame buildings. When they had walked a hundred feet or more they encountered another sign. JUBILATION, U.S.A.!!

WELCOME, STRANGER! See America first and begin with JUBILATION!
