OVER THE
BACK FENCE
BY Marguerite Finefrock

Hiya Neishbor-If we had mil
lion dollars, we'd hit out Tor
warmer climate as of now. Some
place where there wasn't any snow
or ice and certainly where the
breezes we're less chilling. Well
welcome the day when we can
discard our heavy raiment for
something "springy' SO that when
we start out we won't look like
we're headed for the North Pole.
To us this seems like the long
est winter on record. How about
you?

Going Along with the WedneS-
day afternoon closing of stores
are Nissen's, Inc. and Eunice Bis
sells Dress Shop, as of this week
T.. There's a movement afoot we
understand, 10 have the stores
open here Friday night and clos
ed Saturday night. This seems to
be the rule in other cities and
since P. c. has reached the city
status maybe we should make the
change, in keeping with our new
growth.
