TRY CONDENSED ADS FOR PROMPT RESULTS ( Eee tik Page Seven 4 4 Across the Kitchen Table By Mrs. Mac. \ --- AAm sade AAARAADEAEAL BERD Well, here we are into the third week of the year and if it's, going to be anything like last week, I want nothing to do with it. Everything went wrong, I just made one mistake after another, from messing up the dates in the Evelyn Shoppe ad to mislaying an important letter, (I did find it, though, in time to attend to it properly.) \ I don't know what was the reason, perhaps I just couldn't get started to work properly after the holidays, but there was surely something! I do know I didn't like two days holidays in the middle of the week, as we had for the Christmas and New Year's, because it just seemed like the usual Saturday and Sunday that I have every week, and then after coming back to work on Friday, another Sat- urday and Sunday came up with- the result that I felt as though there had been four of them in two weeks and thats too many! Never mjnd, next year Christmas and New Years falls on a Thurs- day so that+ should work out much better. Jeo IK The weather's been cold, the weather' been mild, but, Glory be, the first seed catalogue ar- rived last week! It was that nice, newsy, "Flower News," from Tobe in St. Catharines, and if you have never received a copy of it, you've missed a lot. It has ads, stories, and good advice sprinkled all through it. So the other night, while the wind whistled) and howled out- side, | sat in the house, snug" as a bug in a rug and picked out several roses, some lity and glad bulbs that I wanted and wrote out the order for them. I can hardly wait now, till spring comes, to see how the roses that I planted last year survived the winter, and also to see the tulips and daffodils. FR ORIK There's never a dull moment, day or night, when you live pe- side the highway. Sunday night, or rather, Monday morning, at two a.m., I heard a most terrific "crash-bang" almost opposite our 'house and looking out of the window, I saw the Hydro pole with it's street light still gleam; ing, smashed off and_ swingine gaily back and forth. A car was stopped akont tv lengths away from it and a > got out of it seemingly unin- jured! Some people really are lucky. About an hour and a half later all the excitement of police cars, flares, transports stopping and starting, (ur - r - rooo augh, bang-bang,) cars stopping and starting, flashlights flash- ing, questions popping, (how in Heck did) you do it?) had all subsided and Peace and quiet once more, until two dogs, north and south of me started calling each other names. Ah, yes, it's a ereat life. RO IOK Did anyone make a New Year's -resolution that they were going to give me at least one item of news for the Hail- eyburian each week? What a Asarat difference it would make if even twenty peaple would do that! Please help me, won't you? HYDRO LADIES Mrs, Phyllis Laroche of Hou- nd Chutes was hostess to the Cobalt Hydro Ladies Club on Monday evening, Mrs. Helen Mallett chaired the meeting. They discussed knitting for some of the local organizations as their 1958 project. Mrs. Mal- lett will obtain the information as to the knitting required for the February meeting.
