Promises, Promises
Much is made of the retaliation of women scorned, but
apparently menfolk belong to that club, too. In fact, the
first breach-of-promise suit in this country was instituted
by a man. On June 14,1623, in the Virginia Council of State,
Charles City, Virginia, the Reverend Greville Pooley brought
suit against Cicely Jordan, the widow of Captain Samuel
Jordan. Apparently the widow had jilted him in favor of
William Ferrar. Although history does not record what dam
ages, if any, were awarded the Reverend, we do know the
Ja court sought to discourage repeat offenders: the
penalty for a third offense was either “corpo
mjfa ral pumlhment, or a fine, or otherwise."
Kin Heav 'n has no rage, like love to hatred
turn ’d, / Nor Hell a fury, like a woman
imp scorn’d. —William Congreve

Air conditioning is an ener
gy gu7zler. but there are I
ways to ease the energy
dram and stay cool Clean or
replace the filters every
month When turning on the
air conditioner, don't switch
it to the coldest setting it
won’t cool the room any
faster, and it will waste elec
tricity. On hot sunny days,
reduce cooling costs by 20%
or more by using shades and
draperies to block sunlight.
Awnings and trees are even
more effective because fa
they block the Sun's
rays before they hit
your house
