Iney can't just
say that I'm Sir Blizzard or Blizzard.
But they have to say they have never
known such a blizzard or something
like that.
''They must praise me In the highest
terms possible. They must say things
like this or they feel they don't prop
erly do me Justice"
''I'm not so sure that they feel that
way about you," said the Crystal Sis
ters. They don't want to praise you
so much but they think you're so bad
that they can't half describe you"
Whether they think I'm bad or good
makes no difference to me-" said Sir
Blizzard" as long as I get them to
say that 1 am a regular blizzard all
right That Is all l care about.
1T amuses me the way they say the
same things year after year. There is
one young man who speaks Of the
weather as being the coldest he has
ever known He does that every single
winter.
"And surely each winter isn't colder
chan the last one, but he says so Ha.
ha," and Sir Blizzard gave a cold
augh.
"Well," said the Crystal Sisters.

for anything.

and stared as though they had never
seen a sleigh before.
The Snow Flake messengers brought
me his message, and I was much
amused. much amused"
'Ah. but we're talking too quietly"
said Sir Blizzard, "if you will pardon
me for interrupting."
Certainly. certainly" said Madame
Snow
May we join the fun?" asked the
Snow Flake messengers.
"Oh yes" said Sir Blizzard. Glad
TO have you. But you must be rough.
'You know l believe in roughness."
1--WE know" said the Snow Flake
messengers.
"Indeed we do" said the Crystal
Sisters
SO all of the Crystal Sisters and the
Snow Flakes, and Prince Sleet and
Madame Snow and all of the other
snow creatures joined the fun.
"They were expecting MS some time
ago, but we fooled them and didn't
come then
"Then when we began to appear, but
didn't play very roughly they said that

Mrs. Pugh- Moran and she has written
us very interesting letter in connec-

we herewith reproduce:
"Your 1922 Review and 40th Ami
versary Edition found its way to an

Arizona. You are certainly deserving
of a great deal of credit in the cor
rectness of this 40th Anniversary
Edition. In '82 and 'S3 was living on
what is known as the Dickson farm.
Those living in the Gunnison valley
at that time could easily be counted
on ones fingers. Beginning at the
upper crossing. going toward Delta,
was Fields, Colman, Winfield. Over
bay, Adams, Thomas, Hoppe. Bridges
across the Gunnison were an unheard
of thing in those days. vividly re-
member driving a mule team across
the GuDnison at the mouth OF Surface
creek when the wagon bed floated for
several feet. The mules took us
across, the only time I ever had
warm feeling for a mule. The first
business house at Olathe looks exact
ly like the first school house at Delta.
Mrs. Whinnery taught the first school
in the Gunnison Valley in her own
home. I kept our worthy editor. r. d.
