Valentine party Tuesday night at

was quite an affair that's the
one where husbands are invited
I've been to several of these shin
digs but the one Tuesday night was
by far the most interesting and en
joyable after an impressive
devotional period, the games and con
tests started with Mrs. D. D. Gross
in charge believe you me, she
had some games and contests which
will be long remembered plen
ty of fun heaps of laughter
and many surprises the
husbands really "let their liairj
down" and the wives acted like teen
agers which resulted in an enjoyabh
time for all Jim Baley espe
cially enjoyed the game which Ker
mit Cody put "flavor" into
dainty and delicious refreshments
with the Valentine motif, were also
enjoyed following the contests
I would like to elaborate more about
the party but I was warned, bribed,
cautioned and dared to "tell too
much" in this column so I'll
change the subject found out
during the past week that the Rev.
L. Richard Mellin likes ping-pong

some fierce contests Tuesday after
noon Jack Gross and I joined
them in a three-game set ' and,
believe it or not, the Baptists de
feated the Presbyterian team, 2-1
they're seeking revenge but Jack
and I are all set for em again
Mr. Mellin is a grand sport and a
lot of fun it's a pleasure to
see a person his age so active and
full of wit his type never grows

Study Course, To

With Mrs. Corbett
So Valentine's Day has passed, so
a young man's fancy will be turn
ing to thoughts, etc. and this week
we have the World Day of Prayer
note to the proof reader: you'
young twirps in that department
have your dictionary at hand before
changing my spelling - last
week, I spelled the wine, "cham
pagne" and so it is my dictionary
came from a box of peanuts, but it's
Webster -- it may he that Web
ster Jr., spells it champaign but let's
not go fancy have some daffo
dils two or three inches tall but no
crocus blooms isn't it time for
crocus blooms? the kids say
thev have seen robins but wonder if I
it could have been a red bird lacing
forward - so today is Asli Wed
nesday -- - don't know why it is
called that, but it is the beginning
of Lent sort of glad we in this
section don't observe Ient in
the spring, with our appetites dull,
cooking is a chore anyway for
ty days of no meat dishes certainly
would stretch out now is the
best time to stick shrubbery down
that is, if the ground is damp
enough do you try the new
flowers that come out each spring?
and vegetables too the
newer sweet corns are not to be com-
nared with the old ones ears
as large as field corn with the Gold
en Bantam taste remember
when we used the old Golden Ban
tam that was five or six inches
long with about eight rows of ker
nels aim to try some of the
hybrid petunias, too the" single
plants are showy, but the bedding
varieties are always most popular
don't get leggy like single plants
do "cosmos or bust" is going
to be my motto this summer
other people pull them out of the
flower beds and garden I'
nurse them along and have a few
spindly plants with anemic looking
blooms believe an early start'll
do it.
