Chatter Box Dear Suzy, Those who survived the New Year's celebration are "doing as well as can be expected.' Those who failed to take the usual pre-cautions, such as copious quantities of reinforcements of "anti-freez-are nof doing as well as the first group, and are finding that the blood fails to flow freely when it is as cold as it is now. It is so cold here lately that when the Brooklawn blew off steam the other day the seam froze in the air and made a solid wall of ice south of the creamery. When Leonard Dutson came driving in from Leamington with his load of milk he thought it was a mirror and drove into it. They will have his fruck ready for operation the first week in February. Those who have occasion to make ice cream are using a blow torch to keep the milk warm as they freeze it. It seems that the way of making ice cream causes the handles to break too easily when it is cold. Too, the ice cream freezes too hard. But a new industry is being born in our midst and added to our great metropolis they are going to scoop up the snow that has been cooled to lower fhan freezing by a minus 85 degress and sell it for dry ice, come summer and a customer. Another new industry may be added too, with St. Bernard dog raising being established here. There are thousands of souls who hrave the perils of the snow and cold and may be lost. What would be nicer than fo have a dog licking your face and saying, "Here bub, take a swig of this brandy in the keg around my neck and see if you can see to go a little farther. Those who scoff will say any dope knows that a dog can't talk, but maybe the brandy would loosen a few tongues and there is no ques-tion but that when a person was lost in the drifts and snow piles of Clark Street, the dog may lift up his paw and say," Pa you've had enough." Speaking of being marooned in the snow drifts Scot Chesley has the super duper story of this week. He had bought a new Jeep pickup and was out showing a passenger just what it coudl do. He went down past the Jeffery homesteads and turned at the Knight corner toward the Nickle mortuary. Here he found drifts and tough going just to his liking for a complete demonstration of what a Jeep could do. He was doing figure 8"s, Dutch rolls, and immelman turns and then all of a sudden he lost Mr. Immelman. It seems that Al-bert Nickle had driven down the road just ahead of him and when he turned into the Nickle Mortuary he failed to leave any trail of ex-haust smoke. (It was so cold that day that Albert's exhaust gas had frozen and Scott had driven three miles on the frozen mixture.) Of 'course, when Albert lost his civic mindedness and turned down the lane, he had given little thought to the fact that Scott was using his trail as a highway. So when Scott came to the end of his road he dropped with a dull thud on to the former oiled road, and into a snowdrift three feet deep and 80 rods long each way from the Jeep. Mr. Chesley, our local judge, gas dealer and dabbler with fluorspar, had lost Mr. Immelman on one of the turns and so he was forced to brave the elements with no more than determination and a diaper bag to move the snow. He pitched 8,000 yards of snow from the prow and stern of the Jeep (they were both at sea) before he got the Jeep back into circulation again. At the present writing Mr. Ches-ley has the1 Jeep back on the road and states, "I'll never go near that mortuary again, at least not while I know it." Gale Searle, custodian of the carrots at D. Stevens and company, local 5c and 10c store, and other items up to and including quite a gob of currency, has made history. Mr. Searle a local coddler of hogs, was out feeding his swine the other day when one up and bit him. He must have been weaning them from the finer and more filling things in life, and couldn't have been giving them anything more nourishing than a promise and a kick, because his hogs, even the pigs, were downright ravenous. Our local porkchop purveyor made and error and stooped over to clean the trough out a bit and one of his favorite hogs (Fatima) took a bite in a very vulnerable place on Mr. Searle. In fact, it was so vul-nerable that Mr. Searle ( no rela-tion to Del) has been walking to work and enjoying it, and stand-ing to take nourishment, with even more enjoyment. I have always heard that when a man bites a dog it is news and now I wonder what news will be coming next. Will Mr. Searle bite the hog? Will Mr. Searle bite the hog where it bit him? Will Mr. Searle before biting the hog, wait for it to cooked? Only Dewey Sanford, our main dealer in and with hogs, can an-swer that, because M. Searle may get tired of it all and the wear and tear on his seat of operations, and sell that hog to Dewey. I, for one, hope that the hog treats Dewey, hogs every other Thursday, the same way it did Gale. So, Dewey, wear your pig sticker sticking to the rear but I hope you don't. Sold as a mother-in-law- 's kiss, Toots. P. S. The string quartet writes that the reason they went in the bank with their collective hands deep in their pockets was that once they saw what they were up they figured that they had best protect what they had before Ot got it. Which shows only a reasonable and understandable er-ror on both counts Ot thinking they were bank robbers, and them thinking Ot (8) Walch, a bank robber.
