(By "A ' Newcomer") After v►e :have Andured a 'very mild" winter in, comparison to: years gone by,. it seems ..as if Spring is just around the corner. We were out driving in the area over the weekend; and saw some very .convincing signs that Spring must either be here, . or very near. The ; Department of Highways maintenance crews were out in full force, taking down and rolling up the . "slightly used" snow fences. Thee black furrows. of ' the fall -plow- ed fields are mostly all. clear- of any signs. of; the. `white stuff" .The back reads are all full of "pot holes" and. "deep. ruts"; causing. the . "new wash job" motorist to, .sigh`' and hold his breath till he gets back onto the highway. The rivers and streams are flow- ing 'very. swiftly and, much higher than in the latter part' sof the year. People in general are changing their winter ,coats for lighter weight jackets and then most of us are "sporting" a good cold. The children are tracking in "addles" of ' mud on, mother's newly waxed floors. It .truly trust be Spring?, At least . we certainly hope so!
