Hello Homemakers! Once more
the holiday season has gone the
way of all good things and if you
feel as we do; “you’ll feel like one
who treads alone, some banquet
hall deserted; whose lights are
fled; whose garlands dead and all
but he departed.’’ How else could
one feel after the magpies are off
to school and the house looks as
if a tornado had struck it. But it's
been fun to have so many doing
dishes and things that had to be
finished, and
set as soon as
for a week.

With a free day ahead, a U.S-
Army colonel in Australia decided
to go on a kangaroo hunt. Armed
with his favorite rifle, he climbed
into the back of his jeep and in
structed the young colored driver
to take off across the prairie. Puz
zled but obedient, the Georgia sol
dier followed the directions, and
in short order they were in hot
pursuit of a large buck kangaroo
in full flight. The chase had pro
ceeded for some 15 minutes with
the jeep lurching and plunging
over the rough terrain, when the
driver yelled back: “Colonel, there
ain’t no use in us chasin’ that
thing!” “What do you mean, Sam?”
shouted the colonel, “Well, sub,”
returned the Georgia boy, “we is
doin' 65 now and that darn critter
ain’t put his front feet down yet!”
