ME3o:jxit!nIoutM by Wanda Nielson The rpeeial personality I'm writing writ-ing about this week is a very spry young lady of 83. She is Hattie Anderron, oldest living lady in Leamington. For the past two months she has been in Provo with her nephew, Ray Anderson, wife Mi. lie and family. She has been ill with the f!u but is now feeling bet-te.i bet-te.i and should be home soon, running run-ning her store as usual. She and her husband John, operated oper-ated one of two stores in town since 1323 until his death five years ago. She has sold Conoco gas longer long-er than anyone in the area and received re-ceived an award for this several years ago. Since the death of her husband, Hattie has taken over the store and tr.kes care of it herself. Hattie is a very interesting person per-son to be around. She enjoys the "Beat ties" and also enjoys watching watch-ing the young folks do their dances of the day. She is a person with a wonderful sense of humor, enjoys hearing funny jokes and can also tell a few herself. Hattie and John, along with his two sisters, Alverda and Bertha ran Mrs. Crane had lived in Delta a boarding house for the railroad , since 1928 when the family moved at Tslan, Nevada in 1907.

As time went on the boarders increased to 165 men ev-( ev-( ry dav to cook for and at times many extras. John and Hattie built the first dance hail in Leamington where many good dances were held. Home made ice cream was sold at the dances and had to be turned by hand and frozen before dance time. later as time went by they purchased a freezer that was turned turn-ed by a gasoline engine. The ice had to be "put up" in ice houses in the winter, so they would have ice to use all summer.
