As you both know Margaret aad John are expecting their first child early in July and she has gone to live with her parents in Morganton until John finishes the spring term at Appalachian College. They are a mighty nice young couple and I hope all their wishes come true. Mrs. Hargrave is doing real well and we are glad to have her. Mrs. Bob Ray brought us a loaf of delicious whole wheat bread Wednesday . . . because we let the Jr. Woman's Club, which she is active in, have a rummage sale in the building adjoining the Democrat. The sale was for the benefit of Wa tauga Hospital and they were more than welcome. However, we are mighty glad she is such ? good cook and thoughtful per son. While we are on the subject of food ... On Thursday Mr. Dwight Edmisten brought us some blue fish, which he caught in Florida recently. We plan to have a good time eating them tonight and we appreciate Mr. Edmisten's generousity. Mrs. A. L. Cooke and her daughter Vivian (Mrs. Paul Fox of Hickory) came by for a visit Thursday morning. This is the first time 1 had seen Vivian since we took that "famous' bridge train to New York last October. Just as we arrived there we learned of the acute ness of the Cuban situation . . . and after careful deliberation . . . decided to hop a jet and come hone. Paul met us at the airport in Charlotte and I spent the night in their lovely home in Hickory before com ing on to Boone. We'll make it a point to go for a visit with them soon. I want you to see their house, which they plan ned. They can have as many as 28 guests overnight! Can you imagine that ... and "The Foxes Den" on the ground floor Is a real cute place. Their sons, Paul, Jr. and Frank, are stu dents at the University of Georgia, and you could see their fotjH-ioU all over the place In fact, Vivian told me that their home is the meeting place (or ever to many of the young people and that ii migh ty fine. I enjoyed the viait and hope they will come often. Laura Ruth and Joe Williams sold their Laurel Motel last week to Gordon and Iva Dean Winkler. The Winkler's daugh ter, Anna Boyce and husband Randy Phillips will probably be in charge of the motel . . . Luck to them! Daisy and Graydon Eggers moved into their new house on Tracy Circle Friday. Dr. Gray don came in to give us his new address and he said he liked to sleep over there mighty well. They had lived on Faculty Street many years and I ima gine it is a lot quieter in the new home. I'm glad they have it! Jennie and Jack Grace's young son Doug, who recently underwent eye surgery, called me for a chat last Monday night. He said he thought East er Sunday would be a good day for me to come to visit him. I couldn't go and I'm sorry. I know I missed a lot ... He is so cute and so is his sister Amy. I visited Sunday afternoon with my daddy and Aunt Hatt and was so glad to run into some of your uncles and aunts, Wiley and Mayme Lewis of Bristol and Howard and Blanche Range of Elizabethton. I had not seen them for ages and we had a lot of fun. Blanche had her camera in hand and all had to pose so her daughter Slyvia (Mrs. Bill Far ley of San Diego, California) could have snapshots of some of the relatives. She also show ed us pictures of Sylvia's two sons and both are adorable. Blanche has not seen either of them, but if her plans work out she will be going to California in June. Also saw one of our cousins, Louise Johnson Haga man of Norfolk, Virginia, while over home Sunday. She is look ing well and I enjoyed the very short visit we had with her.
