same way as he did before,
parts and water all over the

call in an experienced plumber

Pete Plath was one year old
er on November 21st. i wonder
why he kept it such secret.
Just received some bad news
on Raymond King, Jr. He is in
Toledo Hospital and last week
he was in the operating room
for nearly four hours and then
he needed 10 pints of blood to
help him stay alive. To date he
is holding his own. So let's all
say a prayer and pull for him to
hurry and get well.
Good bye now, see you next

Leonard Borglin Special Item
After due consideration this
will be printed. There were
some tall stories going around
this department last week about
Dixie. First of all it was rumor-
ed that he had wrecked his new
car beyond repair. Then he was
supposed to have won a new car
at one of the local movie bank
mites. They were lies, but Dixie
was SO confused for couple of
days that after the rumors, he
came to work wearing one
green sock and one blue one
and to boot the same morning
he came in wearing his ''tee"
shirt backwards. He didn't know
If he told many people he had
another pair of socks at home
like the ones he was wearing.
Too bad for a nice young man
like Dixie to be so absent mind
ed or should / say confused.

THE EVENT OF JAN. 81, 81.
1t was the last week of the
hunting season. Russ Wagner,
accompanied by George Charles
and Ed Quetchke, drove his
1850 Ford into a farmers lane
and parked just outside the lane
in a corn field. On returning to
the car, after the hunt, Russ
climbed in back of the wheel,
started the engine, but not the
car. Admittedly, the ground was
a little soft SO that the tires
sank in about 2 inches but the
car refused to move. After jack
ing up the car and placing corn
stalks under the wheels, still no
movement. After long wait,
fortunately for Russ, another
hunter with a model T came
along and pulled Russ's car out.
Wanna sell, Russ?
Nov. 28th is notable, also, for

that Russell Riley was taking
no chance on anyone giving

Who was the gapsetter who
started to go hunting with a
couple of friends last stormy
Saturday? After a couple of
drinks they went out to the Car
and were met by a blast of air
so cold they decided to 60 back
to the Coca-Cola emporium
where they stayed until mid
afternoon, watching the football
game on TV. BY this time they
were all feeling rather good and
when the driver let this gap
setter out of his car, his friends
noticed that he fell flat on his
face in the snow-a sort of fly
ing tackle that threw the side
walk for a ten yard loss. Right,
Baldy?
Thomas Schoettley dropped

Mr.. and Mrs. Stanley Szewc-
Yak, who started to drive to

moon, found themselves snow

divert their attentions from one
another. Mrs. Szewczak is the

The city of Seward last week protested the postponement of planned improvements for it's air port. In an open letter addressed to Governor Ernest Gruening, ap- bearing on the front page of the Seaport Record, the complaint states that completion of the Sew ard field was promised this sum- mer.
 The letter says that city off cials now have been informed there is no money to continue work on the Seward field. Sew ard residents eye the work being done at Dillingham;, and ask the governor to look around for some loose funds with which to com plete their field.
