     Good Day, eh!

     I am trying to locate a book That I read a LONG time ago.(probably in
     the

     very late 60's)

     The ONLY thing that I can recall is the first line

     "James Quincy Holden was 5 years old."

     The book was about a young boy (as you might have guessed from the

     title) whose father? had invented a 'brain synaptifier' to increase

     learning speed. (and had, of course, used it on his firstborn)

     The trials and tribulations of going through juvenile life with an adult

     outlook are documented, I vaguely remember, in a most entertaining

     fashion.

     I would appreciate any help that might be forthcoming in respose to this

     poser.

     (Thanks for the memory)
