organs. The remedies used generally
prove effective. East Sumner has sever
al musicians and persons who delight
to tickle the throat with sweet chords,
but for us, tickle our throat with cords
of maple sugar. We like Mr.. "Old

have some local talent 10 music here that
Ia very pleasant to endure. 1t somehow
draws out our encore possibilities better
than cat fight or the sweet concord OF
weaving calves and new born frogs.
We don't have to visit the saw mill nor

music from our own natives that we
