The hay lift for this district does not drop from the skies, but the long line of trucks that wind their way southward to the distressed sheep in. the district, each day, are doing a grand job of getting the needed hay and foods to the flocks which would have perished had these truckers not fought their way over almost impassable roads during the past two weeks. Some of the sheep are doing quite well, according to reports from owners. However, the intense cold is taking its toll despite all effort being made to care for the sheep, exhausted from their long drive from the usual grazing grounds. John L.

Among To Townspeople HOLTVILLE, ALA. A blind man has the feel of this rural Alabama community. He is Carson Dennison, and his talents as a mechanic, electrician, plumber and general repairman are so much in demand the folks around here say they wouldnt know what to do without him. He started to take a war job once, but the neighbors howled so much he stayed home. The feeling of being useful is what Dennison has struggled for since he was 18. Thats when he lost his eyesight. His dream of independence has paid o(l in the cash register. Hell tackle anything from patching up a wheezing jalopy to diving in Lake Jordan to see if a boathouse piling is put down right. But he turns down work every day because he has more than he can do. Dennison doesnt consider his blindness a handicap, either. Its an asset. Take the time a customer brought in a typesetting machine so broken down nobody else would touch it. I couldnt see how bad it was, Dennison recalled, so I fixed it. Childhood Accident Carse was only 6 when a playmate blasted his eyes with bjrd-sho- t. There were intervals of seeing again out of one eye, but when he was 18 the light went out for good.

Copyright 1949, Continental Oil Company Despondent, he suffered through one operation after another for five years. Then one day in a New Orleans hospital Dennison found a new light from the inside. he says, Its imagination, Most people talk about imagination so much they dont have a chance to think what it means." Ignoring the advice of doctors, Dennison began to imagine he could be a mechanical engineer. Hed always wanted tq.be one. I didnt feel like I could stand a handout, Carse explained, looking up from the water gauge he was I installing in a heating plant. wanted to do a job and send someone a bill and get paid like anyone else. Works on Big Jobs Thats what he does. He finds time now and then to squeeze in small jobs, but most of his work lately goes into big projects, such as the heating systems he put in at Holtville high school and the grade Eclectic. school at near-b- y Difficult wiring jobs dont bother him. The refrigeration unit he installed at the high school had 150 separate connections, but he got every one right. When he takes on work like that, his wife reads the blueprints aloud and he memorizes them. Fellow workers help him figure out the color schemes that tell electricians which wires go where. Once he got crossed up a helper turned out to be color blind. But Carse connected the wires the way he thought they should go when he ran a test to see if they were right. They were. Dennison likes to take on jobs that others have bungled or given up. Strangely, he says customers expect better workmanship from him than they do from others. f aybe you're the "slow one' German Speaking Swiss Sensitive About Language GerBASEL, SWITZERLAND. man speaking Swiss are still extremely touchy about foreigners who look down their noses at them because they speak the same language Adolf Hitler and Heinrich Himmler spoke. Recently, a Dutch lecturer who spoke good German, chose to deliver his speech to a German speaking Swiss audience here in English. The result of this comedy, said the National Zeitung, was that practically nobody understood what he was saying since his English was very labored.
