BITTINGER

A snow storm of unusual severity,
accompanied by extremely low tenn
perature for the season, struck this
section last week. The snow began
falling late Monday evening and by
Thursday the roads were so complete
ly filled with huge snow drifts that
travel was impossible until Saturday
when those who had failed to have
their automobiles inspected as re-
quired by a recent law, found it nee
essary to shovel through the drifts in
order to get their cars to point for
inspection.
Mrs. Gustavus Stanton, who has
been in Akron, o., for several weeks
with her daughter, returned to her
home here last Sunday afternoon.
William R. Browning, of Oakland,
was business visitor in this village
on Monday of last week.
The special Thanksgiving service.
which was announced to be held in
the local Lutheran church on Thanks
giving evening, was postponed indef-
initely on account of bad weather
conditions.
DR.. N. R. Davis, Of Grantsville, was
called to this village last Saturday to
attend Victor Wiley, who is ill at his
home near here.
A rapid rise of temperature on Sat-
urday night and Sunday, aided by the
rain of Sunday, thawed away much of
the snow that fell last week.
The young women of the Busy
Workers Sunday school class will
hold bazaar in this village early in
December and will have on sale a
number of attractive and useful arti-
cles. The patronage Of the public is
solicited.
Two cars, driven by Rex Buckle
and Joel Brenneman, respectively, COL
lided along one of the roads near this
village one day last week and both
cars were damaged but the drivers
escaped unhurt.
Perhaps we will have a report of
deer killed in this vicinity by the
local sportsmen during the open sea-
son this week.

jim, the printers devil, and Emmy
Lou, the typesetter, of The Republi-
can force would like to be informed
personally hereafter by the water COM
mittee, just when the water is off,
how long, and why, especially when
there is cold wave.
Last Friday when the water failed
to reach several points in town Jim
showed up at the office about 45
minutes late. He had been at his
home on Quality hill, trying desper-
ately to thaw out the pipes, when his
neighbors informed him the hill didn't
have water.
That same evening Emmy Lou went
home. There wasn't any water there
either, and thinking the reservoir was
empty, made the best of it. Two days
later, when their neighbors were US
ing water and they were still minus
the acqua, they found that their pipes
really had frozen.
***
Down in Midland during the cold
wave last week some of their "bright"
citizens let their water spiggots open
all night to keep the pipes from freez-
ing. They succeeded. They also sue
ceeded in draining the city reservoir
and are now without water.
***
1t is rumored that a few Oakland
people did the same thing the other
night. Let us hope that Oakland
people have graduated from that
level, and used their heads in the
natter. Water is precious, especially
when there isn't much to be had.

aad a radio hooked up and were play

They were broadcasting on hair

.eceiving music from station X. D. x,
rom the capitol dome at Hartford.
They started off with the number "let
ne trim your whiskers, Pm in love
With you" The clippers were work.
ng to the tune of the Tiger rag.
When shaving wrinkled face they
would turn on some of those soothing
;unes from the guitar one is always
rearing from Fairmont or Wheeling.
For massage they played "Only a
ACE that mother could love-" (thank
heavens 1 wasn't the one getting the
reatment). When they used the
scissors on my hair 1 made them play
4 waltz.
For hair restoring treatment they
we're using the tunes among my
souvenirs" and "Gone are the days."
If anybody went in there with the
dea of getting only haircut they
played "Shave me again." by Beard;
Great big washable you," and eff I
aad hair like an angel" until he broke

marcel, SINCE, massage, shampoo, and
