Show when you turn on the cutting bar it lakes so much power the plane can t handle both at one time. The Associated Civics Clubs met here recently to talk on Highway Six. The association is composed of various clubs throughout South em Utah who go to the meetings to find out what the other communities com-munities are trying to get and then cut each others throats toget those things for themselves. Anyway Any-way they were in serious session and the chairman asked if there were any questions. One of the Ely delegation got up and said he had a question and was told to go ahead with the question. He Said, "I would like to know where the men's room is." He was shown where it was, and thus proved that those meetings do accomplish som thing after all. Things are in a pretty pickle a-mong a-mong the Delmart - Quality - D. Stevens awards at the livestock show. They had agreed before the awards were ordered that they would alternate the various awards aw-ards each year with each store taking a turn with the hogs, lamb, and beef award. Everything was duck soup and Delmart was going go-ing to award the Beef, Quality the Lamb and Stevens the hog, but when the awards showed up they had been engraved a little in error er-ror and they had changed it so the Quality and Delmart were reversed in awards but the mere bills were not reversed. Delmart was billed for the beef award, which was the highest, while they gave the lamb award. Quality was billed for the lamb award while they gave away the beef award. Now Orvil is hoping that the Delmart doesn't hear about the billing bus- Chatter Box Dear Suzy, Boots Done, local farmer and airplane enthusiast on the North Tract, was showing LeRoy Skid- f more his new mower attachment that he was patenting for light airplanes , when he came to a slight cropper. They were down near the Nickle - Jeffery - Jeffery-Nickle Jeffery-Nickle and Knight area when Boots took a pass at the hay that ne was going' to mow. He had his cutting bar set a little low and when he hit a few crowns on the plants the plane didnt have power enough to cut through them and so did a flip-flop and came to a creaking stop on its back. ' Boots and LeRoy climbed out and I when help arrived they report that two whiter people never existed than our two hay mowing men. ' A survey of the machine showed they had broken the propeller, a v strut, and lost four teeth out of ' S the cutting bar. The cutting bar was taken from the machine, a new prop added, and some barb wire from one of the fences and Boots was able to fly away home, after making the statement that it was "all a closed book." So Boots Closed Book Done is working on anothe'r invention wherein the cutting bar doesn't take any of the plane's power. , He says the plane will fly OK, but iness as he can save a little motley motl-ey by paying for the lamb award, when in reality he gave the beef award. Delmart may slip up on this as they did the stockmen's banquet ban-quet the other night. When it came time to present the awards there was nobody there from the Delmart, so old tried and true (I'll take back the true part) Herman Munster, made the award in the name of the Delmart. Herman remains in the news this week as he was talking when he should have been listening at the stock show during the lamb sale. Someone was telling Herman a-bout a-bout something and Herman kept saying "Ja" and everytime he said Ja the price of the almb went up a cent. Finally the auctioneer said "sold to Herman Munster" and Herman had a lamb on his hands after he had raised his own bid five times. Sometimes it pays to just keep quiet, or you are going to be eating lamb chops for a long time. Verl ( I Like Wonderful Scenery) Jacobson comes back in the news again this week with a continuation continuat-ion of one of his recent escapades where he got mixed up and went to a women's powder room in -stead of a man's shaving room. It seems my informant didn't tell all that happened, which is a shame and makes for extra and rather lengthy explanations. It happened at Zion Park instead in-stead of Ruby's Inn as was first reported, but the first facts remain re-main the same o'nly they don't go quite far enough. After Verl got comfortable in the ladies powder room he got curious and peeked through a crack in the door, and much to his discomforture in came a women who started to undress for a shower. Verl must have made some sound, such as a gasp, which gave him away because when the young woman got undressed she started up a rapid conversation, be tween lathers. Said the young woman,"Wonder-ful woman,"Wonder-ful scenery here, isn't it?" to which Verl made a mental reply, "Lady thatis the height of understatement.'" understate-ment.'" Not undaunted by Verl's lack of cooperation in the conversation con-versation the lady carried on, "I always did like the wide open spaces and being close to nature." nat-ure." Again he made no reply but agreed heartily with her state -ment. Said the girl "What's the matter, don't you like to talk." ' Verl was in a bad way then and knew he had make an answer, which he did, "bad code id by head." and the sweet young thing sympatized with with him, saying, say-ing, "this is a bad time of the year for colds, and I know you aren't enjoying your vacation with one, and no wonder you talk so gruff". Verl thought to himself that that was' first statement she had been wrong on to date. And then the gabby young lady carried on a running conversation advising Verl on how to take care of the cold and how he should take care of himself. Verl was very happy for the respite in conversation wherein he had to take no part, but the young lady in the Sept. morn clothing asked, "is there any thing I can do for you?'" To which Verl hastened to reply "doe." The girl said, "I'll hurry and dress and run to the cabin and get you |
