TALES OF
CKE CITY
An interesting news item. I
which appeared in the Seattle
Times’ column of Lenny An
derson was sent to this office
by Heinie Snider. Mr. and Mrs.
Sweeney, principles in the j
‘tern, make their home in the
Butte area.
Mrs. Joseph Sweeney of
Palmer. Alaska, near Anchor
age. arrived here last week to (
see the fair and checked in at
the Mayflower Hotel as plan
ned. The next day she called !
a relative, Mrs. Leslie Cooper
of Normandy Park, who per
cuaded her to stay at their
home.
Meanwhile, in the North.
Sweeney had a thought. Why
not fly to Seattle and join the
little woman for a few days at
the fair? He jetted in Friday
and checked in at the Mayflow
er to learn friend wife not only
had checked out but had left
no forwarding address. Failing
to remember the Coopers'
name, he combed the city and \
the fairgrounds for two days in j
vain. Possibly you are thinking
they never did get together
here but you would be wrong.
The other morning as the
Coopers drove up at the Seat
tle-Tacoma Airport to deliver
Mrs. Sweeney for her flight
home, Sweeney was waiting
there, worn and haggard. He
and the missus flew' home to
gether.
