fm Nice to see
Brennan Ivalyn Bra
dy back. We missed you, Iva
lyn, while you were in Lin
'coin. I like O'Neill best, too,
and I think most of us do.
The “teens" of 50 years ago
had more fun (some of the
oldtimers tell me) but we en
joy life, too, most of the time.
These are lovely Summer days
for picnics.
In the old day* they had
' lot* of fun at parties, danc- j
ing all the square dances, i
Everyone would be there,
with no one left out, and
they all had a jolly lime.
There are some interesting
books at the library for any of
you boys or gals that like to
read adventure stories. “Bob
Clifton, Elephant Hunter," by
Dock Hogue, is very interest
ing. Also there are: “High
Trail,” by Bibian Breck
"Swamp Boy,” by M. B. M
Cormack, and "The Purple
Tide,” by Leland Silliman, and
“Son of the Valley,” by John
R. Tunis.
Remember, it’s smart to be
safe. I’ll be seeing you Fourth
of July!
