'A This And That
By BETHA DIGBEE
It’s rather difficult to get back
into the regular routine after a
vacation from the office. . .
especially when there have been
so many social events. We really
don’t mind too much except for
those miserable tax reports that
must be filled out. Being a citizen
of a State instead of a Territory
doesn’t seem to help much at tax
time . . . just hope that some
legislator doesn’t think of any
further reports for us to do. We
already have enough headaches as
it is at present_
