Show Millard County Chronicle Thursday, Oct. 15, 1959 A eu n oman s raGe v IHGS eivs 0 Betvie and . J By INEZ RIDING Gladys Eppich is ver-ry good for the soul. She tells me that this part of the Chronicle is the best part and she thinks that Bob ought to allow me a whole page to ramble on and on. (I do believe that she was sincere, too, because she did not have her hand held out for the usual tip!) Last Friday afternoon I was iri-vaded iri-vaded by a group of women that are supposedly ladies (The Sunshine Sun-shine club) and if that group doesn't does-n't have a good time. (Mama Py-land Py-land used to wash my mouth out for saying things not half as bad as some of the things I heard! My! My!) Seriously, I had a lovely time and I can only hope they did. They are really the ladies that I always supposed them to be and I'm happy to know every one of them. - Thursday night at Jr.-Sr. High P-TA, Ev Morris made a remark that I don't quite understand yet. Soma good lady was telling me a-bout a-bout reading this column and Ev. said, "Speaking of the Chronicle and your chattering thing reminds me, I saw a mother skunk and five babies crossing the road today." Now this threw me. If Ev wanted me to have her name in thisyere column she could have asked me to say something nice a'bout her and hers (I could have found one good thing to say, I think!) but why did she mention skunks and Sense and Non in the same breath as she did?. Mrs. Kernell asked her that, too, and I did appreciate her help! We decided that Ev was probably prob-ably on the right track, they both stink! And speaking of P-TA, more par ents should have been there. I'm living for the day when the parents outnumber the teachers at such a meeting! - A quartet composed of Reece Finlinson, Merlin Christensen Fer-rell Fer-rell Walker and Ben Roblson sang. Those teachers are very good and all I can say is that it's a good thing that Mr. Gale Sponseller signed the MeloD's when he did. If he had seen this quartet first, the gals wouldn't have had a chance. You should see Merlin swing out with "Hound Dog," that old Elvis Presly favorite. That is one of the reasons that I'm going to miss NOT one P-TA program this year. You can see by that that we will have culture, if nothing else! w There Is this thing about me that sometimes compels me to see just how tall a tale I can tell. (Wonder (Wond-er what one can do about such a habit? I don't mean to really lie or anything like that, and you know that I don't. Ah, me, but a tall tale is something else again. I thrive on telling Tall Tales.) Did you know that there are more National Weeks this month by far than there are weeks? I've never really understood the importance im-portance of these National Weeks. Like fer instance . . . we're right smack in the middle of National SOMETHING WEEK. If by now the American public doesn't appreciate this SOMETHING, what can be accomplished ac-complished within a week? Sposin' it's National Dill Pickle Week, and sposin' we've never eaten eat-en a dill pickle before how can we learn the fineness of a dill in so short a time? Dill pickles are like wines they have to be sampled over a period of years to develop the palate and to determine just what constitutes a Good Dill Pickle. To judge a dill pickle, a person must have developed devel-oped a keen sense of taste and an intense love of his work. A dill pickle judge must know 1) the proper technique of picking up a pickle; 2) how big a bite he should take; 3) if he should chew with his mouth closed or open; 4) how fine he should chew; 5) just when to swallow. (That No. 5 is of the utmost importance.) A connoisseur of dill pickles should be neat, clean shaven, honest hon-est and have long sensitive fingers. fing-ers. To judge a dill pickle here is a list of qualifications that a pickle must reach before it can be considered con-sidered in a real contest. 1. Does the pickle exceed the length of third finger, left hand? If so, the pickle is too old and therefore the seeds will be too hard to crush between the sampler's samp-ler's teeth. This is important, as much of a pickle sampler's fun comes from crushing seeds between his teeth at their proper maturity. 2. Is the pickle a true green? This Is most important. Not a pickle connoisseur likes to have pickle juice, plus artificial coloring, color-ing, run down his chin. One or the other is enough. Is the dill pickle a firm one? This is one of the more important import-ant qualifications. If the sampler picks up a limp, juicy dill pickle and bites into it and the juice hits his neighbor in the eye, then that s'"gf FOR (jHRISTMAS GIVING 0U Simplicity 3211 See the wonderful t$$hz Simplicity Simplicity mo Patterns you can sew Svnplic, 1346 Simplicity 491S Christmas Stocking stuffers; See cur novelty fabrics d trimmings and start to sew Sim pltcitj I for the merriest 22S7 Jv ft 0 Git. -1 i 4 m tEn gaged . .

Is the dill pickle full of little bumps? Galley two Sense and Non Offhand, one would think that that is a silly question in regards to a dill pickle. But in a real dill pickle contest that could be one of the more important factors. If the sampler had long, sensitive fingers then there would probably be no trouble. If the sampler had short pudgy fingers and if the pre-1 ceding pickle had been a limp, juicy sort of thing, then these little bumps could be of much help to him in gripping the pickle. You've heard of Non-skid tires-well, it's the same principle as that. 5. Has the pickle received the loving care as a cucumber that it expects and should receive? ; i To make a good Dill Pickle, a cucumber must have been cj.own in proper soil with proper amounts of shade, sunshine and freedom from weeds. j I Perhaps I'm just now beginning to understand the importance of all these National Something Weeks, Here I am all excited a-bout a-bout dill pickles and I'm sure that this little research has been the "thing" for me to do. j I believe that the teachers of Delta High should begin to plan now for a Dill Pickle Contest for half-time entertainment during the game between Millard and Delta.' This game is coming on the 30th and "I greatly fear for the cirowd! No one but no one is remotely interested in whether we beat Mil lard or not. The game itself will probably not draw a hatful but the Dill Pickle Contest could and would. If Mr. Bennett is half the man that we all believe he is, he'll start today making plans for just such a contest. con-test. That brawny football team would never know (probably) but what the crowd came to see them beat Millard. Think, man, think what a morale booster!
