pairing blueprints for the coming nest
ing season. Sunday afternoon turne'
off bright and clear with just enough
Jingle in the air to make the bloot
course thru ones veins like unit,

In fact it almost gave US the sprinf
fever and we very nearly had spasn
to start some early garden scratch
ings. But the ground being frozer
was all that restrained US. 1t sure i.
a great feeling to see the snow van.

again be exposed to view. We OF
course are probably getting the cart

| Spring is not far off, but We have the
bunch and when you get that you are
not far off. So you better put ir
some time oiling up the lawn mower
sharpening the hoes and putting lit
tie time in on setting up exercises so
you won't have too many sore mus
cles when the real rush begins. Pick
out your favorite brands of radish
seeds and with the first good thaw
scatter them broadcast that your
table may be graced with green and
succulent herbs. Be not depressed if
the deviled ham hath returned unto
its nest, for all things will work out
for the best, and few more days will
see the bright and cheerful rays of
the sun shining in all his glory with
his old time ambition to melt every
thing in sight.
Many of US are rather laid up with
the old fashioned grippe at this writ
ing and as we can't find anything else
to lay it onto we blame the weather
for it all, when in fact it is as usual,
no one is to blame 1t sure beats
the cars how little news of some
dread epidemic spreads. 1t is cinch
though, we will wait till we can dig
our greens out of the dandelion beds
rather than be irritated with bottled
goods. Many have either had the
flu or any amount of other things we
read about these days but the scare of
big names have about been exhausted
so we have gone back to the good old
fashioned grippe and this has grip
on large number in our community.
The first dance given by the pleas
ure club of our community was an en-
tire success from every point of view.
Minor details, however, remain to be
worked out when it is expected the
plans will be run more smoothly. Sat
urday evening was the date upon
which the club was present as an in
dividual. Music was furnished by
Irl Thomas orchestra and supper was
served by the members. This event
has proved what little cooperation
will do towards a splendid time and
many more such events are in view
before the rush work season opens.
However, there are accidents happen
ing every time they have dance
seems like and when they elect the
next senator or representative to con-
gress they aim to try and introduce
bill for safety first which will not al
low any accidents to happen or will
give ten days warning before it is
pulled off The trouble this time was
with Art Wright and his Ford when
navigating the ruts of the bench roads
some time after midnight Saturday
evening or Sunday morning. We do
not exactly know what induced the
old Henry to break rear leg, but it
did and Art was stranded down there
until relief could be summoned. The
rear axle is very important feature
with Fords now. Art says he aims to
lay in several extras SO he will not be
caught that way again. 1t is good
idea, anyway, and those who aim to
be sure they wont have to be pulled in
ought to heed.
Harry Ivie is up and around about
as sound again as dollar. Lake and |
Lewis lvie were up to the ranch above
Sweet to take care of things while !
Harry was sick. Oscar Ivie has been |
over to Parma for about a week help +

The ]. A. Wills family spent Sun
lay visiting at the home Of their re-
atives, the Elmer Aston family on
he bench. Frank Wills has returned
o work for Al Hetherington in the
electric shop and has been thus en-

las Frank learned the sparkling quail
ties of electricity yet?
Mr.. and Mrs. Marsh Scott enter
