Cleaning time is good time to get those things

wnterset that sends one scurryng to forgotten
MES to rustic thru almost forgotten personals.
Summer Is much too busy a season to worry about
trunks heaped with keepsakes, or attics dusty with
relics. But winter chill grey days is pro-
vocative for sitting down quietly, rummaging thru
items-almost lost-remembering this. rejecting on

Of corn were stolen from a field on

grain away. The back tires had
nobby treads and the front tires
had tread stripes. Most of the corn
was of the yellow variety, although
there was some blue corn and some
sweet corn included. The thieves
left about 80 bushels-probably for

Duck Hunters Go

reports a strange hunting scene
while driving past Washington
Lake one Sunday recently. Ducks
reluctant to continue the flight
southwark because of wounds or
other reasons, were crowding the

after them. Many of these hunt
ers were equipped with ice skates
and poles. The ducks were good
divers, and it was no easy task to

was asleep the cat came and jump
ed on the bed. Mr.. Shofner re-
pulsed the animal, but in a few
minutes it came again, leaping on
the bed. Again it was driven away
but soon returned, clawing at the
bed clothes and making a distur

NAL out of doors and get some
rest, Mr.. Shofner stepped into the
next room to find the wall all
ablaze pack of the stove. Prompt
action soon extinguished the fire.
