Up on the North 40

I called Pappy Chandler and sez hey dare mister street boss, ah cain't get out. The snow, she's done gone and blocked the street.

Good ole' pappy sez, Now don'tscha fret a bit, son, 'cause I got a little ole' sugar burger that'll move dat dare snow pronto!

Meanwhile, back at the North 40, my little red bug sits hung up on snow and all the chains do is throw a little snow. (Actually, the wheels spun on ice which developed when I cussed so much the heat melted the snow and the norther whipped it into ice.)

News-Presser Pat Osbon advises, Move south, like me, so he moves to Kearney Hill. So what should I do, secede from the Union of Broadview?

The Rev. Stanley Rogge of First Evangelical Lutheran church, (and a neighborly Kansan) received congratulations for his new daughter born December 31, but said he was sorry, but the baby wouldn't wait until midnight.

National Jaycee Week is January 21-27 and the local organization has scheduled a night of hospitality and visiting for "exhausted roosters" and their wives. An "exhausted rooster" in Jaycee lingo is an ex-Jaycee who is over 35 years of age. The evening might be called a Cock and Bull session.
