South Bend news-times. (South Bend, Ind.) 1913-1938, 1914-02-09

down town came from. Those from

bic drifts on their backs, those from
the south bore a quantity of CONCEAL
ed precipitate on their left, those
from the north Topped over TO the
right from an accumulation on that
side
Guess that's all can think Of about
snow just now-eXcept that I've got
to go home and shovel off my walk.
That's a task 1 prefer TO execute aft
er dark If 1 tackle it in the day
tine, when passers-by are passing by,
they always pop some bromide OBJ
servation as That's the way 1 got my
start" or Does me good TO see YOU
work" Some of the more original
little jokers let loose this when you
get that done you can come over and
do my walk" That last is particular

to be used as a target for such painful
missiles two or three hundred times,
depending on the location OF your
walk. and then it gets irksome.
