Show When all else fails. . . call in the Rain Dancers By Mary Gae Evans PAKOW AN - This is the second chapter of the continuing story of the young and the thirsty or as the world yearns "for water". Ladies it's time to get serious about the drought and probable water shortage. We must band together and do something about this very dry situation, we don't want to have to give up our dishwashers, dish-washers, automatic clothes washers and nice hot baths in a tub full of bubbles. The weather forcasters have tried, they've predicted rain or snow everytime a tiny white cloud showed it's face over the horizon, but it just hasn't worked. They would seed the clouds but it seems there are never any big enough for planting. So I've decided to take over with a fool-proof plan and if everyone cooperates it can't fail. We've always known how to make it rain. First of all we must all wash and wax our cars and not put them in the garage, then ladies, we might all consider having our hair done, in a style that rain would ruin. If you do a washing don't put the clothes in the dryer, put them on the line outside and then leave home so if it rains you won't be there to save them and for a special touch you might hang out a coat or suit that says dryclean only. Anyone who is thinking of tearing off an old roof to put on new shingles should do that' now, and leave open spaces for a day or two. If you have anyone in your Tamily considering marriage, go ahead and plan an outdoor wedding with crepe paper decorations water would ruin. And now the real clincher, let's send-the kids to 4-H camp and the scouts to a camp out in the bottom of a dry gully. Now if all this well planned strategy fails, we might as well give up and hire some real professionals. I know where we can get some rain dancers real cheap. |
