Sorry I was unable to attend. lyou, aai 4 ^ ^ s^ingthe housles so beautifully decorated for [the holidays. But, why must we i have ,vandalism? Mrs. Shepar<J>' has always been one of the first persons in our little village to have her home so beautifully decorated with many strings of lights, but this year, after only a few nights, she was missing so many lights (more than 2 dozen) that she took them down.

In case you are wondering what happened to the column this past week, let me explain; Thursday morning found me in bed, and./out of balance. For the £u^t time, I sjpent 6 days in bed, with what I believed to be the flu. After much per - suasion from my better half, I managed to have my son take me to the\doctor, and found out I was not a victim of the flu bug, but was truly out of balance with an inner ear infection. Which, by the w*iy, isn't any picnic at all. Of course, my hubby told me I didn't need to go to the doctor to find out I'm out of balance, since he knew that for some time. Enough of the fun. Family and neighbors pitched in, arid I am now quite steady on my pegs. Hope to see you following the holidays via the column in 1968. Timber's A Crop Trees ripen just like farm crops.
