Peggy, Gerry and Edyth surely did look pretty, too didn't they? hope the green ery in the baskets didn't tickle Peg gy's back too much although the afternoon was very hot ,the beauty and solemnity of the wed ding made me forget the heat was glad to again see the Rev. and Mrs. A. Ray Howland and Eva Claire they all look fine and Mr. and Mrs. Howland didn't look a day older than they did when they lived here sorry to hear that Mr. Mellin has had to be in the hos pital for a few days hope he soon gets well and is again able to play ping pong, pitch horseshoes, and work around the yard and gar den also sorry that Frank Fisher had such a painful experi ence at Savannah Beaoh, Ga., last week-end he swallowed a fish bone said bone lodged in his throat and it took an operation to get the blamed thing out thanks to Ted McJCinaey and Delmer Payne far "salting! bur .toad Mon day night the dust is terrific up there glad to see Mr. and Mrs. W.

John Gorbett told me Sunday that he and Tom really had a fine time at Fontana won der how Lyman is getting on in Mi ami this week at the Lions Conven tion bet he's also having a fine time hope, so, at least the heavy rain last Friday after noon made Main Street look like a river especially in front of the RE A Building water got bumper-deep for awhile Birthday Party Held For Johnny Grow In Burlington Thursday Johnny Gross, son of the Rev. and Mr. D.

How does your garden grow? et any new taters this year? the store bought new taters just ain't new taters had you no iced that the popularity of the Se quoia potato didn't last long? most of us objected to the dark streaks at the root end they were a dependable cropper, though one man I know calls them squaw potatoes somehow that name suited them another ex pression I like is "sody cook" an old lady awhile back said so and so was a good "sody cook" meaning she could use soda and but termilk or sour milk instead of bak ing powder we know what she meant because soda is as tem peramental as a movie star when it is good it is very good, and when it is bad it is horrible am going to pass on this recipe for the old fashioned ginger cookies that every grandmother knows how to make by guess and by gosh but can't give you a recipe: 1 cup sugar 1 cup shortening 1 cup molasses 2 eggs 3 tbsp. vinegar Vt tbsp. baking soda 1 tbsp. ginger cup hot water 6 cups sifted bread flour. Mix sugar, shortening, molasses and eggs; add molasses and last the hot water mixed with the vinegar, soda and ginger. Add the flour till stiff enough to make into long rolls. Wrap in wax paper and place in refrigerator overnight. These can be sliced off and baked as needed. This recipe makes about 85 cookies and can be kept in the refrigerator for 2 or 3 weeks that is, if you're one of those lucky women who can keep cookies. Vota Vita Class.
