A number of friends and relatives gathered at the home of Mrs. Sarah Fisher Saturday evening, in honor of her eighty-first birthday anniversary. One man asked another why he had such a "lost" look. Hi^ answer was as follows: "I married a widow who had a grown-up step-daughter. My father came to see me, of course, and, being a widower, he fell in love with my step-daughter and married her. i My father, therefore, became my ; son-in-law, and my step-daughter be- 1 hese honors aie given ( came my mother, because she had and gins who were very | married my father.

"*PPy returns "In due time my wife had a son, who was, of course, my father's brother-in-law and my uncle, for he was the brother of my step-daughter. My father's wife, who was my step-daughter, remember, also had a son, who was my brother and at the same time my grandchild, for he was the son of my daughter. 4 "Now my wife was my grandmother, because she was my mother's mother. I was, therefore, my wife's husband and grandchild, and, as the husband of a person's grandmother is his grandfather, I was my own grandfather." •TICK IT OCT Scfcaefer's The boys are talking about a 200 game that Homer Fitzgerald rolled in the K. of C. league this week, But, he's modest about it.
