Dorothy Uttich forsook us to play bridge with another group. "Shame on you." The winners for the evening were, Ann Herzog first, Alice Quaiver and Louise McEnery tied for second which is very usual. They split the .second and third prize money. Ivy served us "Broken Glass Torte" and a delicious fruit cake. The names of some of our refreshments sounds as if our hostesses are trying to get rid of us. Actually the broken glass was nothing more than pieces of various colored jello. It is very colorful and mighty delicious. A good time was had by all including Keto. Keto is Ivy's dog.

A little boy came along and like all little boys, just had to plow into one of the high banks of snow. Results? The bus driver had to get out of the bus and pick the .little boy out of the snow bank as he was well bogged down. The driver rescued the little boy, but when he was pulled out his overshoes, shoes and socks were left in the snowbank. Who was the little boy? Mary didn't know, that are stuffed in olives.

"Busy People" Bill and Ann Herzog have been as busy as two bees. That's What keeps them so young looking. On Saturday Jan. 17 they invited the Hammonds arid Kosies both of whom live on Lakeview Avenue. Tripoly was the game they had planned on playing, however Mrs. Hammond was taken ill suddenly and had to return home much to the dismay of the Herzogs and Kosies. They in turn proceeded in a game of "Pinochle" which lasted into the wee hours. Then during the week, Irene and Hank Kohls and the Herzogs had two evening sessions of pinochle. On Sunday Bill and Ann will travel into Lombard to the home of Mr. and Mrs. E. M. Steen. They are Bill and Ann's daughter and son-in-law, where they will spend the night and on Monday have the unhappy task of attending their sister-in-law's May Herzog's funeral on Monday.

Sputnik Devtne Harvey Devine just returned from another trip to the Grand Canyon. He has made so many trips to the Canyon for his firm that I was quite inquisitive (plain nosey) and asked him, what was the reason for so many and frequent trips to the Canyon. Answer: Harvey says that it is a darn big hole to fill up and he just can't get it finished in ia few trips. What hole? The one in my head for asking jokster Harvey a question like this. Predicted That Rose Blanc should be confined to bed for a much needed rest, but it wasn't until her doctor ordered her to bed rest that Rose gave in. I am happy to report that Rose is feeling much better except for a cold that persists on staying with her. Early Spring? Could be, as Betty Laurence was seen the morning of the big snow storm out sprinkling with her hose. I thought this was kinda funny, but after all if she wants to sprinkle the snow that's her business, but what really has me puzzled is her attire. Coat, nightgown and galoshes and she was carrying an umbrella.. Hmm. Thanks again for getting your news items to me. By now--see you next week.

Weber gave a report on the bank's activities for the year of 1957, which disclosed an ihcfease in deposits over the previous'year of $1 million, thus swelling total resources to more than $13 million.
