Thursday, April 9, 195J THE MeRENHY PLAINDEALER Eastwood Manor WELCOME APRIL IN MANOR EVEN WITH MUD. RAIN »y Lois Ryan--2510-R April is the fourth month of the modern calendar and the second month of the ancient Roman calendar. It's .uncertain as to where the name April came from. Aperire, a Latin word meaning "to open," suggests to its being when the trees and flowers begin to op- £*t». A modern Greek word similar in meaning, supports the Latin word April is derived it ragn. WWh hatever its origin, we are happy that April is here in Eastwood Manor. Rain and mud and all that goes with it-- for very soon summer will follow.

"This fellow had a bad tooth," he explained, "but I told him I could save it with a few prompt treatments. Then, after that one visit it was six months before he came back. "This time," Doc saicl, "his cheek was all swollen up. 'It's that same tooth,' he said. 'Think we can save it?' Sure, I said, after I take it out you can put it in your pocket and take it home with you." From where I sit, trouble sets worse with neglect.
