again. Harold, Ray and Frank Lew
is left here Tuesday afternoon,
loaded down with bedrolls, frying
pans. Hershey bars, bacon, cheese

At 3:00 A. M. Tuesday. August
24th, Ray, Vic and Boo Witherup
and Eddie and Frances Stevens
drove into town to join John and
Barbara Wugan and Dan and Re
ba Rose aboard Wugan's boat for
a goat-hunting trip. They hunted
the Day Harbor area, bagging three
goats, and returning to town about
midnight Thursday.
At about the same time, Lyle

spent one day goat-hunting in a
snicUl boat, returning with two
goats.

Vic Witherup is building a bed
room onto his house now. What is

finished painting the inside of the
house, doing the living-room in a
soft green.

Annqtta Gillespie was in the
hospihii Tuesday and overnight of
this week, leaving little Raymond
in Bertha Lewis’ care in town.

Lucile Moore of the Nash Road
has a new and exotic haircut
which I admire tremendously. So
many of us women have perman
ented hair-dos, all looking more or
less the same, until sometimes I
think it is a little boring.

Now that fall is here, the Devils
Club are towering away above
even Harold’s head and are flaunt
ing their beautiful scarlet berries.
They punctuate the varied green
of the woods, adding emphasis to
the grandeur of this country.
(Yes. I know. Any just-returned
| moose-hunter who happens to read
I the above will probably utter a
quite different version of the plant
in question; but I herewith inform
him that I try to confine my ex
periences with the plant as nearly
as possible to just looking. I try
to avoid wading through it and
| definitely do not play peek a-boo
j around it with moose and bear.)
