She married her best friend, Jerry Hamling, "Bezwnt" 'continued from Page 2 to much. The fact is that Lincoln changed the course of history and is still considered America's greatest president. Sometimes it is tempting to look at people and think the same thing Lincoln's relative thought of him. I doubt that Coach Henry ever thought Brock Moore would ever stand in his shoes and coach the Viking wrestlers to a state championship. I doubt that Wayne Cornaby ever thought Layne Anderson would be the President of IFA. I am absolutely sure Coach Henry and Mr. Cornaby (Uncle Wayne) saw great potential in each of these young men and did all they could to make champions of them. The great teachers I saw, as Abe Lincoln, were doing their level best to see the good in every child. What a great country! t 5 H " 5 ; . 1 r ! .

We watched them as they huddled close together on the opposite shore. Some diehards stayed in the water but in huge numbers they flew to the safely of the shore. At about this time we de-cided we needed to head for home, too. We took one last look at these gorgeous creatures and went on our way. I missed the loud squawking of the birds as we left the area but it had been a great day and I'll always remember this special March day when the Snow Geese put on quite a show for us. As we started up the car to drive away, it must have startled the birds, even though they were quite far away on the shore, and they took off in huge numbers, filling the sky with their white bodies, touched with black un-der the wings. I felt so bad that we may have been the ones who star tled them, they are jittery birds anyway, but they flew off into the distance as we helplessly watched from our car. I am sure that soon there-after they came back to their resting place on the shore of the lake and spent a few days before continuing their journey North. We continued our own journey, getting home easily with hardly any more rain as the skies cleared and the sun came out brightly. I hope the sun shone for the geese in Delta, too!

I will not, however, be sending my social security number, weight in liters, pin numbers and other personal information to him immediate-ly, as he so politely asked of me. My failure to act prompt-ly may be due to his poor us-age of the Queen's English, a subtle tingling in my guts "heart of hearts" warning me to (lee with my man purse, and the listed return address for Jon-Joh- n Smith in Kazakh- - stanenburg spelled with a "C". I just don't tell anyone how much I weigh. Usually I am the last one to put others down for their poor ability to bowl over 150, drive a tractor, gut a chicken, or to spell correctly - as these are activities I myself have not mastered though not for lack of effort. Also and addition-ally, I am not so smart. I am the intellectual equivalent to a pimento SPAM loaf - nice to have around at dinner time but no one stands in line to ask it a question. "Cheney" continued on Page 5 I just read an emergency email sent to me from some-one I have never heard of named John-Joh- n Smith, who I am supposed to "have acquain-tance with from our mutual interacting" here in "My City.
