This could probably be classed •as tall tales, or believe it or not, however its the truth. Recently two neighbors were going to town, and as they journeyed -down the ilth concession of East Wawanosh, they 'perceived the snow plough coming along and decided if they didn't want to be buried alive they had better scramble for safety. So they unhitched old dobbin from the cutter and drove her up• the bank of snow. As: they made their exit to safety they pulled; the cutter up after them where they waited till the snow plough had proceeded on its way, when they went through the same pro- cedure to get back to the road, where they journeyed happily on their way. On their return home they met the self same plough.' on the highway and old dobbie having learned her lesson well commenced of her own accord to scramble "up the bank and the same proeedure as before had to be gone through. The cab driver opened the door of his cab and called up to them, Hi there buddies. Twice in one day is too much. After much laughter and cheery banter the two neighbors final- ly, were able' to 'climb off their high perth and resume their journey home, where they arrived safe and sound. Yes, we have lots of snow but we bee lieve spring is just around the corner, as one of our 'hunters shot a huge ground hog one day last week, while another hunter reported having heard crows.
