Sure ’n ’tis George O’Hammond a speakin’ t’ ya from O’Neill, the capital of little Ireland, the place where ol’ St. Patrick is a revered man indeed. “This is our regular Saturday morning edition of the ‘Voice of The Frontier’ program. Sure’n a wee bit o’ Irish flavor on this good ol’ St. Patrick’s day twon't hurt no one, just a little bit. “Sure’n the auld sod is a sight t’ behold this morgan, too. It’s buried under something less than a foot of snow. Auld mother na ture has beautified things mighty fine.

Though she has a German married name, she’s Irish, true-and-true. “Mrs. Beha is the mother of Bill Beha, whose voice you used to hear on this program, especial ly during the Recurring Blizzards of 1948-’49. “Happy birthday, Mrs. Beha, on this St. Patrick’s day, 1951 . O’Hammond’s sign-off ran: “Well, ’tis time to be a leavin’ ya’. “I’m agoin’ out in this snow with my green tie a sparklin’. This i s George O’Hammond, signing off the O’Frontier pro gram from O’Neill. “Sure’n ol’ St. Patrick would be impressed with this O’Neill snow this morning—nine inches of it, my, my. “My friend, Cal O’Stewart, at the controls, says it’s time to be aleavin’ the air!” The “Voice of The Frontier” program is heard each Monday, Wednesday and Saturday at 9:45 a.m. (WJAG, 780 kc) direct from ONeill studios in The Frontier building.
