Show the key hole by the desert rat hats off to the young folks of green river for a very nice and sane halloween night not one act of vandalism did I 1 see the next morning when I 1 got back to town of course there was a lot of windows soaped but they were dirty and needed washing anyway so a lot of windows got washed that might not have other wise got washed when I 1 was several years younger halloween night used to be for trad ing anything that was loose with the neighbors and it generally took sev eral days for them to find out just who had their property and haul it back the only day now that corn com pares with the morning after hallo is the next day after xmas which be called exchange day for that is the day most folks trade off the xmas presents they don t like or didn dian t fit or the wrong color to match what they already have etc I 1 always feel sorry for all the store clerks on that day for they have hav e to stand on their dogs that are already barking from the pre xmas rush then have to make all those exchanges with no profit I 1 have often wondered why more cafes don t sene serve melted d butter with their hot cakes and waffles then the customer would not have to eat cold hot cakes that was cold by having to melt cold butter on them serving hot butter would also fool the customer if he was served cold hot cakes that got cold wait mg ing for the wi atress to pick them up you see there is a lot of addan to sen serving ing melted butter while on the subject of cafes I 1 often wonder why the boss B 0 ss dont don t instruct the waitresses to make out a se check for each guest and lay it at his plate this thing of asking if you want it all put on one check can be very embarrassing to a lot of us uranium prospectors that has hat not found any uranium it might even cause a fellow to choke to death or get fatally burned on a hot potatoe if the girl happens to be looking at you when she asks if you want it all on one check so girls make out those se checks then if any one in the crowd has a pocket full of blue chips he can pick up all the tickets and may be save some of us prospectors from having to wash dishes or scrub floors to get out of hock at last I 1 have found out why the population of utah is increasing so fast it isn t the early morning tram train according to the tribune there will be a 63 per cent increase in population in utah in the next 20 years and in the same paper there was a report of three men being arrested for having 13 wives and 82 children now I 1 am wonder ing if the fellow that figured that 63 per cent increase in 20 years knew about those three fellows rec ord before he relba released sed his figures also wonder if those three fellows ever read what happened to hitler Mussi mussolini lini and peron they too were very popular with the fair sex at last the youngsters are going to get educated in the new school building hope they get educated in the seat of their pants with a paddle if they don t take care of that new school house A paddle may be old fashion but if more of them were used the dehn delin problem would be easier solved now for the sad part of this col dmn it got cold to ride a slow mule into town every week so something had to be done sure foot is now grazing along the san rafael river abou about four our miles up the river from hatt ranch he has a nice winter home as I 1 found a big cliff where some uranium prospectors had run a big tunnel back about 20 feet which will protect him from the winter winds and there is plenty of ot grass and water close by he has been a good faithful old mule and I 1 hope he has a pleasant winter and when its it s spring time again we will hit the trail together sure is going to be lonesome riding in an old jeep all winter by the time this is printed the election will be over we will have some new city councilmen there is no closed season on them so if you have anything you don t like call them up about two 0 clock in the morning and tell them all about it adios |
