Jumping Plum Blossoms

Luverne-Students in the bio
logy class at Luverne High school
almost lost their faith in old
Mother Nature and their text
books last week because of the
strange behavior of some plum
blossoms which had been given to
their teacher, Myrtle Ramsey.
While the class was admiring
the blossoms, some unopened
buds fell to the floor. Suddenly
the buds began jumping all over
the floor as if possessed by devils.

 Tait grinned eXcitedly, Maybe I was crazy enough to play my hunch and put that ad in the Per- sonals column. And I got this" He handed Feeley the letter he had received from the messenger half an hour before,

Tn fact, I can tell you some things about that song which may surprise you, If you want to talk to me l will be in the lobby of the Paciflc-p Plaza Hotel at 3 o'clock tomorrow, will be standing by the Number { ele- vator.

 Feeley looked up. 'The guy Is nuts"
