Show him so well after that because I California is full of snow and there is quite a lack of orange blossoms Mem to get a bite of honey. Even though, I wish I was a bee, Toots. Chatter Box) Dear Suzy, It is still colder here than an ' income tax collector's heart. Snow is everywhere, and salt supplies in town are dwindling as local persons per-sons are trying to whittle away a little ice so as to get solid footing. foot-ing. Dick Wind has been thawing pipes for so long and so often, that in some houses he has become a permanent fixture. So if you should .happen into a home here and see something, it is Dick Wind at work and not a statue. I am not surprised that Eearl is greiving, but he is not greiving about losing business at his local joint. What is griping Earl is that Ned got the eggs. It is lucky for Walt Wright that his hives of bees are all loyal to him and love him like a brother.be-cause brother.be-cause it was through them that his new car was saved from serious damage last week when his garage roof caved in. Walt had his new car in the garage and had also put a large number of bees in the garage, too. When the bees heard the creaking boards they realized that Walt's new car was about to be somewhat dented about the top unless they did something. Hastily they flew out of the hives and by buzzing their wings lustily all night through they were abe to keep the roof from coming clear down, and that was the way Walt found them the next morning when he came out and saw the caved in roof. Walt is going to take them all to California soon on a vacation as a reward for their work that night. Maybe the bees won't like a The only bright spot in the picture pic-ture of local distress and suffering comes this week from Amasa Valley Val-ley where Fran Hunsaker is holed up for the winter taking care of the mine out there. He has plenty i of food, clothing and fuel, but the actual necessities of life are far lacking with him. So the other day, when they finally fin-ally were able to get an" airpalne off the airport, they flew about the western areas dropping packages pack-ages and supplies to all those they could find that were stranded out there. When it came Fran's turn for his succor and refreshment they had only a fifth of whiskey left in the plane. They decided to drop that out anyway and Fran was down below watching. It is reported, and truthfully, that when Fran saw the whiskey coming through the air, he leaped up 30 feet, caught the bottle, unsealed un-sealed it and had it half drunk when he landed on the ground. It is a good thing the airplane has come to stay when it has taken tak-en over the duties of St. Bernard dogs. The poor dogs would get lost in the snow here, in the first place, and then, too, they wouldn't have the knack of finding the needy, and wouldn't know who needed what. Dos Stains is certainly a busy bee these days making porcelain choppers for those who are going to conventions in Salt Lake. This week he is working like mad on a set for Cloy Broderick. Last week he slaved well into the nights to make a set for Fuzz. He got them done the day before the convention conven-tion and Fuzz, full of hope and teeth took off to the annual press convention. All went mostly well until it came Saturday night at the banquet. ban-quet. Fuzz hadn't eaten a thing for the entire time he had had the teeth and so when they plopped down a half chicken in front of Fuzz, Fuzz plopped his teeth into a glass, of water and tied into the food. I understand Ray Mills and his wife of Lynndyl were sitting across the table from Fuzz and when Ray saw the teeth he swore off right there and has climbed onto the water wagon. This is, of course, only a rumor, because my knowledge of banquets is that those who attend them can't see across a table, let alone be able to distinguish teeth in a glass. And rumors to the contrary notwithstanding, Ray could see, and Ray definitely has not climbed on the wagon. Of course in a crowd like the ones that attends la press banquet, Fuzz took a lot of chances that someone would drink his teeth, mistaking them for a more potable beverage. Earl Kelly, potentate at the Utah Poultry is greiving this week. He had everything lined up to do a alnd office business in feeds and hot watr bottles, when one of his help upset the routine of the plant by going away to attend his wife whiel she gave birth to twin girls. The girls were born to Mr. and Mrs. Ned Teeples. Earl says he knows the reason for the twins arrinving was that every night when they got through candling the eggs, Ned took home all of the double yoked ones. |
