It’s dark and dreary and supper is over . . . the magazines along with The Frontier are here on the ta ble. All is quiet so I will try to get a few lines ready tonight, so it will get into the mail in the morning. It’s been quite a long time since I’ve written you. Have been busy as there has been so much to do around our home, and especially in the summer time when the garden was needing care. Seemed like the weeds grew up over night. The vegetables had to be taken care of. We had a mess of turnips that were planted the last week in July, today for dinner, and when they were mashed they took the place of potatoes. One would not want them as often as potatoes, but they are mighty good eating when they are not woody. The weatherman said that a cold wave was on its way and would proba bly end in a freeze, so the last of the strawberries were picked and made into preserves. They arc always welcome at our house and it will be a long time before there will be any more. The summer went fast for me, although the heat in July almost got the best of us around here. Then one did not know what the harvest would be, but some of us hollered before we really got hurt, as the harvest was not as bad as it might have been. It’s nice to drive along the road and see the nice ears of corn, partly bare of husks, hanging from the tall cornstalks, and it won’t be long before corn picking will start. It’s not such a big job with these newr mechanical pick ers that are on the market. And these are busy days for the homemakers, especially for those who have kiddies going to school. It’s a round of washing, sewing, honing, cleaning and keeping the lunch boxes filled with lots of appetizing goodies. Mother and dad are ever on the job and school time makes just a little more to do. Most of the canning has long since been done, and those who have deep freezes have been saved a lot of work and it will look good to them before the next harvest. The cockscomb, petunias, ever blooming roses, rose moss, mums and the canna lilies are still blooming, and I would like to have brought them all into the house tonight as it is cloudy and misty at times, the wind is from the north and it would not take long before old Jack Frost could take over. We will miss the flow ers as everything looks nice and green now since it is cooler and we have had a few showers. This is getting long and not too newsy, so will sign off for tonight. One of your readers, ‘THE GARDENER' ■ i... ■ -, SAYS SANDHILL SAL No misfortune is unique. Ev erything that happens to us has happened to others before us. It will happen to those who come afterward. Disappointment, in justice, grief and sudden death are familiar experiences. They are life’s relentless expression of living. I was not the first one to say the words above and I won’t be the last. Life is made up of many little crises, of many little deaths. From the day we are born we die a little bit, every day. But few of the problems which arise in our lives are matters of life and death. Often by the time tomorrow comes, things are better and de spair cannot live with one forever. Try to remember that when the going gets a little tough.

Sid Davison’s senior year at Howard High School was busy and exciting—until rheumatic fever struck. After three critical weeks in the hospital, he was final ly allowed to return home, but still confined to bed. Then A. J. Welk, manager of the telephone company in Howard, South Dakota, heard the story. Calling on Sid’s father, he suggested a solution to the problem—a private home-to-school telephone system, installed as easily as the average 'phone. The next day installers went to work. A small but powerful two-way speaker set was placed in Sid’s bedroom. At school there was a similar set that could be plugged into any of his classrooms. Soon Sid was attending classes from his bedside, chatting with friends between sessions—even listening to the class play in which he had been scheduled to appear. His spirits boosted by the feeling of being back in on things, he buckled doum to his studies. At the end of May, Sid Davison was graduated with his class! Although this true story describes an unusual situ ation, it illustrates the value of everyday telephone service, too.
