Modern Living
This educated O'Neill cat is fully domesticated and is house
broken to the nth degree The man at the household says that
Topsy was "no more difficult to train than any other two-year-old."
The Frontier editors decided that if the cat belonged at Bassett or
Plainview, for example, its unusual health habits would not make
picture news in The Frontier. But it’s an O'Neill cat- a smart one!

An ironic twist has beset far
mers in this area who are har
vesting a bumper corn crop.
Widespread spoilage is reported
in piled and cribbed corn, par
ticularly in Boyd county. The
green mold has caused countless
farmers to tear down the piles be
cause of the deterioration.
Com has been slow In drying
because of wetness.
The corn crop, claimed by
many corngrowcrs as the liest
ever, is about half harvested.
High moisture content is reported
everywhere in the area. Much of
October nod most of November
have not been conducive to dry
ing out. Overcast, damp skies
have slowed the drying.
Wet field conditions have ham
pered machine picking and the
enforced delay is considered a
blessing by many of the farmers.
Wet fields have also slowed har
vest of sorghums.

the object sailing from southeast
to northwest.
‘‘It was like a bright star and
was clearly visible," Mr. Dailey
told The Frontier.
"Seeing a space object gives a
person a peculiar thrill and cer
tainly was a highlight of our trip
if not of our lives”.

Angeles, Calif., and at Jerome
were reunited with their nephew,
Robert Dailey, and niece, Mrs.
Guy Stanton. The nephew and

CHAMBERS Imagine the joy
that pervaded the living room at
the Charles Grimes home, one
mile east of Chambers, Tuesday
afternoon!
Bruce Grimes, 24, and his wife,
Bonita, 19, and their daughter,
Patsy, were reunited with Bruce's
parents.
The Bruce Grimes family, liv
ing a two-room cabin-type home
on the family place, became over
come with gas fumes late Tues
day, November 12. The three
were found unsonscious about
tO o'clock Wednesday morning,
November 13, by Bruce’s moth
er.
They were rushed to St. An
thony’s hospital where all were
placed under oxygen and listed
in "critical” condition.
The young mother and baby
reacted favorably to the treat
ment and by nightfall were re
moved from the critical list. But!
for 30 hours Bruce showed no re- i
sponse and clung to life under!
oxygen.
Late Thursday night he began
to show some improvement. By
Friday noon his physician issued
a bulletin saying the patient;
would recover.
Saturday morning’s “Voice of ]
The Frontier” program featured!
an interview with the three gas
victims, Bruce offering only a
few words hut enough to reassure
thousands of well-wishers he was
on the road to recovery.
Patsy was dismissed from the
hospital Sunday; Bruce and his
wife were released Tuesday noon.
The young couple recalls their
small home bocnme excessively
warm alx>ut 7 o’clock on Tuesday
evening —a day which Bruce
had been confined to his home be
cause of influenza.
Bonita said she turned off the
space heater. The heater, re
frigerator and stove operuted on
propane gas.
They rememlier nothing there
after.
Because Bruce’s mother saw
no activity at the nearby house
the following morning, she in
vestigated.
A gas refrigerator is blamed.
A prayer service was held at
Ihe Methodist church during
Bruce's crisis, attended by 40
persons.
