She was advised to hold off until the plastering was done. " Well I guess they did speak of a few other affairs but this is all I can remember. (Chatter Box Dear Suzy, Nobe Big Key and Room Man Peterson is really packing them in the Hotel Southern lately and has a SRO sign out in front all the time. In fact the rooms are on a double duty shift at the present with plenty waiting in line. It seems that a guy showed up late the other night, and woke Nobe up to get a room. The guy came here to take Ray Steele's place as the maintenance man foi the airlines, and had been here before. Nobe asked him, after wip-ing the sleep from his eyes if he had any preference and the guy told him yes, "I would like that corner room." So Nobe still half asleep ' gave him the corner room key. The guy retired to his room to catch a little sleep and noticed on opening the door that there were some things in the room such as suitcases and clothes that normally aren't in a room. But he thought nothing of it and went to bed. About 5 a. m. here comes Guy B. who is working a relief shift at the airways communication station, andgoes to his room. He can't get in because it is locked from the inside. He goes back and wakes Nobe up again and Nobe gives him another key. This doesn't work either so he goes back to Nobe again and gets him to come along to open the door. The commotion outside in the hall when these two tramp up to the door rouses Guy A and he gets up ana opens tne aoor in me sur-prised faces of Nobe and Guy B, who are standing in the hall with a key ring loaded with keys.Things are a little strained at this point because even though Guys A and B work for relatively the same outfit, they are - not acquainted and each accuses the other of skullduggery. Nobe quietly slips into an empty room, of which he had plenty of that night, and waits while the two argue it out. The final outcome is unknown but it is supposed that Guy B got his room back and Guy A was placed in a new room. But on the other hand they may have decided to save a little money among themselves and use the room in shifts, leaving Nobe with one bad-ly used room and several empty rooms on his hands. Jim Bullock has been in to see Nobe and loan him some of the strings he puts on his fingers to remind him, so that Nobe can keep his rooms straight. Nobe is also working on his books to stra-ighten them out as he doesn't know whether to enter the amount as one room rented twice, or two room rented once. He is in a pret-ty pickle. The fishing season is now at feverish heights and some of the tall tales are starting to come in that seem to always accompany a fishing trip. Possibly the one that sounds the worst is the one told by Leigh See Me Before Sell-ing Your Seed Maxfield and Fuzz You Can't Catch Fish With Your Hook Out of Water Beckwith. It seems that these two were fish-ing hand in hand down Pangooch way when a rabbit hopped out in front of Leigh. Quoth Leigh, "Wat-ch me catch that rabbit, Fuzz." And Fuzz relied, "Be your age, Leigh, you aren't that nimble." Of course Fuzz didn't know that Leigh had no idea of running it down, but meant to catch it on a fish hook. Leigh made a handsome cast with his hook and missed, but ac-cording to these two' men, his next cast caught the rabbit on the dead run jumping an eight foot fence, with a heavy cross wind and a backlash hampering Leigh. But Leigh was equal to the occasion and calmly reeled in the rabbit and dispatching it with a club, while Fuzz standing nearby drop-ped both his uppers and lowers in the grass from being so opened mouth at the accomplishment. Had the story come from Fuzz alone I would have dropped it there because he is prone to ampli fy things a bit and it could have been boiled down to the fact that he saw a rabbit track. But with Leigh it is different. Jle lis accuSr tomed and generally tells the truth. On the other hand I never heard of Leigh going fishing be-fore and that is the part I don't believe. So when tall tales are told fish-ermen will tell them. Toots. Give Farewell Party Monday Mr. and Mrs. Glen Hortin, who are leaving soon for Panguitch, were guests of honor at a dinner party Monday night at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Cleed Teeples.
