Show from the dairy of a faithful contributor by GUESS WHO T dear jack richfield sure put over a contention bention when they had the american legion here a few days ago I 1 would have written to you sooner about this but you know you and I 1 sufficiently recovered until now I 1 am glad the legion baires en enjoyed oyed themselves 1 I cant t remember whether legionnaires Is spelled with one N or two you fix it which ever it I 1 is 3 that mat reminds me of what another legionnaire scott matheson formerly of cedar and now assistant united states attorney in salt lake told me recently we were discussing the matter of spelling p and he said the washington office offic e of the home owners loan had sent him a letter and accusing him of being careless in his work and that he had made an awful mistake in one of the applications he had bad prepared they told him he had spelled lousey with two as there were two things in connection with the legion convention I 1 heartily approve c of the one was the election of charlie card as state vice commander charlie is a card whatever job you put him on he would be an ace in any deck the other matter with which I 1 am completely in harmony musically and otherwise was that song a bunch of stags from salt lake were singing one morning to two married couples also from salt lake it was sung to the tune it aint going to rain no more and the words went something like this oh there aint no wives with us with us there aint no wives with us there might be wives with some of you guys but there aint no wives with us one thing I 1 did not like was the way they handled that raffle I 1 did not win a single thing I 1 had a whole drawer full of tickets but I 1 even win that permanent wave I 1 had set my heart on one consolation about this raffle however was the fact that my pal lamar jensen won a dress it was a ladys dress a beautiful creation it was a delightful chiffon cut on the bias low neck exposure and trimmed with rosettes and gardenias it was quite stunning and set lamars figure off to the best possible advantage it came just in time for him to take it to salt lake which he did the following sunday to avoid being sued for nonsupport non support I 1 believe this is the first dress he has given her since he nearly got married last spring down in panguitch you probably heard something about this event but I 1 better give you the straight of it I 1 was vas trying cases in panguitch last spring and one day during a recess the bailif came in and said a lady wanted to see me out in the hallway I 1 went out to see who it was and there stood the apple of lamars eye I 1 asked where he was and she replies hes out olit in the car and dares nt come in I 1 am pretty keen on this stuff jack these loving young couples cant put it over me I 1 have seen too many of them come to the court house both before and after the ceremony I 1 said to her well lets ts get him in here and get it over with so we tailed him and while he was slipping into the court house I 1 sent word to the clerk tommy partridge to bring his marriage li license cease book and the necessary witnesses d tommy T 0 m m y thought it was all in good faith and so did I 1 really jack I 1 did I 1 thought they were eloping the clerk brought the big book and a half dozen eye witnesses solemnly laid the book on the table and opened it to the first blank page and I 1 then introduced the couple to him ue asked lamar his age and lamar damar blew up he mantea wanted to know what the so on we were trying to pull here and then you should have seen him run it is au all my fault I 1 coached him enough if I 1 hild had just prepared him a little by telling him that they would aste ask his age everything ery thing would haw have been all right your guess is as good as mine whether I 1 ever get him that close again or sot not ile he says he is going to get even with me what do you think Z GUESS WHO |
