IllIIlLzlILll No one can frolic
in such weather as we have
been having for a while. True
there were two sunny days
when most of us took heart and
thought that spring might be
on the way but the rain caught
up with us again and we were
once more in the doldrums be-
cause of the weather. But Palm
Sunday is right near and If
tradition keeps up there will
be plenty of winds this week
end and maybe will blow the
rain away and bring sunny
skies in its place. Palm Sun
day also brings with it the
week of meditation and devo-
tion SO close to the hearts of
church going people. The next
meeting of the New Century
Club will be on Monday with
the Reverend Harry Jaeger of
the First Presbyterian Church
bringing to the members the
Easter message. For almost
two thousand years Easter has
brought a summit time in
churches everywhere and peo-
pie have wanted to add to their
knowledge any new concept of
the resurrection of Christ. 1t
can be a very lovely season of
the church year.
Mrs. James X. Pettyjohn is
carrying around with her cast
on her right arm. On Friday of
last week it was her misfor-
tune to fall on the waxed floor
of one of her bedrooms, break
ing her right arm quite close
to her wrist. Not having suff-
cred too much with pain she
has carried on her work and
has even been able to type some
with her left hand. Home acci-
dents still keep statistics quite
high.

the dues.
There was no old business.

could happen if you are not care
full to rid your home aid farm OF
