Show Kansans Visit Their Old Home Last week John and Leo Nutsch were visited by their sister Mrs. Frances Reedy and family from the corn belt of Kansas. The party consisted of Mrs. Reedy, her husband, hus-band, and two boys; the two girls had gone on to the northwest, to join the family there later. While here Leo took a jeep up Amasa Valley, and the party took cars, transferring to the jeep for the steep climb. In Kansas a person per-son shells out "the yellow gold" from ears of corn; in Amasa you simply gather up any dirt and wash the yellow stuff out of it. They all became "gold diggers." Their biggest boy was a sample of "corn fed" - - ample and lots of plumpness - - how different from John and Leo, the skinnies! Mrs. Reedy visited here the last time seven years ago. The country was at its best on this visit, and the family saw much prosperity. The Nutsches were old timers here, and their father, John F. Nutsch subscribed to the Chronicle on its first issue of July 4, 1910, and he and members of the family fam-ily have continued to read it ever since. |
