temporary clutter throughout

looked.
But now the Christmas tree
is down; gifts have been put
away; the living room is livable
once again; Dad can now put
on his slippers and relax in
stead of working with Juniors

can catch up on her mending
instead of sewing more clothes
for the Christmas doll
How comforting it is to re-

A very good friend of mine, some
what surfeited with all the holiday
meals, suggested to his wife that they
might ease up a little. He had been
in the habit of enjoying mackerel
for breakfast on Sunday mornings,
but last Sunday, taking him at his
word, his wife skipped his favorite
dish and served breakfast of fruit,
toast and coffee.
That's right, you guessed it. After
breakfast was over, he turned to his
wife and said: ''You know, some
mackerel would have tasted fine
this morning" How about it Rev
erend?
A butchering was held yesterday.
Harry Carper, whose true love is
the farm, despite the fact that he
probably knows more about chin
aware than any other man in Ha-

alton of three hogs at his mothers

Harry swears that they were three
of the biggest hogs in these parts.
If that's so, Harry, there ought to be
enough for at least some sausage for
a hungry editor.
At last Mondays luncheon meet
ing of the Board of Directors of the
Chamber of Commerce, at which
the members of the Chambers Ed
ucation Committee were present,
there was frank and open discus
sion of the proposed school bond is
sue, authorized at the last session of
the State Legislature.
The purpose of the discussion, as
outlined by president John Baer in
his opening remarks, was to bring
the board members up-to-date on
the deliberations of the committee,
SO that, when their final recommen-
dations were presented, the board
members would be able to act on the
recommendations right away.
Winslow Burhans, chairman of the
committee, briefly reviewed the
work of the committee to date, en-
phasising that all members of his
committee were approaching the SUBJ
ject-which to say the least is highly
controversial with absolutely open
minds, and that neither he, or any
member of his committee, were
allowing their personal views to in
terfere with their study of the sub
ject
The discussion, which lasted for
more than an hour, closed with the
suggestion that perhaps the best way
to handle the question, would be,
after the committee presents its rec
concentrations, to poll the entire
membership of the Chamber.
Mr.. Burhans has scheduled an
other meeting of the committee for
the latter part of next week, at which
time it is hoped that its work can
be completed.
