uAfoWn eogetner ~ such an animal n
apt to do when trying to ranch along
With it. Yes, we are eating like we
we're civilized again for we moved
our Aunt Myrtle Shaw and Cousin
Letha Dayton out last Saturday and
ever since we have been enjoying all
the dishes so dear to the heart Of the
1picure, or rather the gastronomical
qualities of humans nature 1t Is
needless for US to say that this lifts
from our over-burdened mind and
shoulders one of the chief burdens
and life really seems worth living a
while longer. Our folks will stay all
the summer, at least, which is better
still. So we invite those OF yon who
can TO come and pay us a visit since
the women folks now have tore down
the sign over bachelors hall and are
now ruling lord Of all.
Amos Helmick and sons, Albert and
Amos, Jr, stacked hay Monday for
Fritz Schadt on the bench. Amos
had much hay Of his own to take
care of, but he had promised Fritz,
and as the old story goes a promise
made is debt unpaid, so Amos neg
lects his own. Mr.. Helmick has never
had any finer stand of clover on his
some twenty than he has this season
for first cutting. If any of you Mis-
souri, Scissor Bills can beat him rails
ing clover we want you to trot the
fact out into the open.
Emery Rynearson has his home
made derrick working over time now
and we claim it is a masterpiece of
engineering skill; in fact, we did not
think that such ability was in Emery,
but it must have been all the time for
it never had appeared before. The
only trouble Emery said was that
the boom on the derrick was four feet
too short. Slight mistakes will ap-
pear even with the best of figuring.
John Rynearson and son Chick,
have been assisting Emery with the
hay. Chick has been home some three
weeks and said that this place around
here looks good to him after being
down where he was in Southeast Ida
no. He talked, though, like he aimed
to go back to that No-Man's country
after = spell, possibly for few short
days. Cant tell" maybe Chick has
one Of those. wild-wild women corraled
down that way and aims to go after
her pretty soon. He will stand watch |
ing anyway.
The correspondent is looking for
ward very axpectantly to visit from
his Uncle John and Aunt Mary Scott
of Columbus, Kansas, who are now on
their way west from latest reports,
expecting to arrive most any time
now. This will make their second
visit west. The first being when they
visited western relatives in 1912. At
that time they became so enamored
with this section of the universe that
they said they must make another
trip as soon as they could possibly
get things Strengthened around again.
So at last this time has come. They
will visit with their sons and their
families and all other connections as
they come west, not passing up any
If they can get their address. They
will visit at Emmett for time with
Thos. ]. Coonrod and family, the
aforesaid party being a brother of
Mrs. John Scott. After this renew
ing of bonds of blood ties, they will
Journey on to Long Valley to visit
with Mr.. and Mrs. Clarence Shaw,
near Payette Lakes, who are also
eagerly expecting them.
Life has much in store for US the
last few days and as the old saying
goes it never rains without it pours
somewhere and we are guessing that
the Gods of fate have surely been
pouring things our way the past week
for we are now "uncle" to big seven
pound girl which the stork delivered
to the home of Mr.. and Mrs. c. c.
Coonrod on the 18th. Chris was
his chickens before they
were Matched, though, for he figured
on big boy, according to letter
received short time ago. The plans
of mice and men sometimes go awry.
Nevertheless they say Chris has been
up and down the main stem
of Quartzburg, passing out the cab
bage with both hands.
Irl and Yvonne Shaw, from a recent j
letter, are expecting to go out on
forest service job Of lookout and /
smoke chaser on the Brumbridge |
mountain about the LIST of July. They ,
are now located on Fall creek, work t
ing in the timber with Mel Hammond, s
another southerner. I
This week will see about all the hay
stacked and PUT aE.yy OF the first '
cutting in our community. Nest { :
it being cut and laying in the wind (
row at this writing.
We were part of the Emmett dele t
cation to Boise last week to the Elks U
celebration. We went over with Karl c
Mann and the Emmett band. The
,nlv disappointing feature of the trip
being the fact that some poor near
sighted reporter for the Capital News
accused us of being the Pocatello Boy
Scouts band. Some slam.
Many of you who have read the c
iaily papers are we'll posted, no doubt, 9
IN the Committee of 48, which met (
It Boise some time ago. This move t
nent needs no explanation on my part t.
,ther than to say that several prom
nent members of our community are \
circulating roster to get names for Z
his new party, known as the Pro- \
yressives. We believe that matters d
:annot be made much worse by try
ny for improvement, SO when tney q
ONE by your way sign your John Il
hancock to the list and help swell
