Kl, Himself = ~ Well, as the Back Mountain Far- mer says, “You got to have a win- ter, ever though you may have to wait fer spring i get it.” ~ After a delightfdl fall, and~the most open vin vo yo exper- ienced at Harveye=Take, at last we awakened Sunday morning to notice that the entire lake was At least it was frozen entirely over as far as Al, himself could discern, and of course that may be controversial. Some persons may have noticed open water here and there, but as far as our de- fective eyes could see, at last the lake was frozen over. It was calm Saturday night and cold enough - to form at least a half inch of ice over the entire lake. At any rate that thickness of ice was the judge- - ment of Al, himself and Professor George EB. Taylor. our congenial Lake Township School Principal, who dropped into our house and invited ws out to take a Sunday afternoon stroll. We amused our- selves im our walk by picking up stones as big as our fist and tried to throw them through the ice, but, ro soap. We hope future skat- ers forgive us if they trip over those stones. We ealled up Harry B. Allen, one of the most experienced fish- ermen of the lake, to question him about the lateness of the lake freez- ing over. He stated that in all the years, man and boy, that he has trolled the lake he has never seen such a mild fall and open winter. Mr, Allen fishes from the first day the ice breaks until it freezes over, so he should know. ‘We know of three other good fishermen, there may be more, but they are not numbered among our - acquaintances. One is George Armi- tage, who is enjoying his usual winter sojourn in Florida. Another is Slim, who used to run an Inn opposite the picnic grounds, and the fourth is a fellow we knew only as “Red” who was at one time a bartender at Rooney’s Res- taurant in Wilkes-Barre. We has- ten to assure our readers that we knew of the latter two more for their ability as fishermen than for their art in mixing drinks. Squire Ralph Davis informed us that t=». remembers two winters when the lake never froze entire- ly. One was sixty years ago, which he recalls vividly because the group of boys he was palling around with had waited so long to get in some skating that one of the most dar- ing trusted the thin ice late in the season and fell in at Point Breeze. Another year, he states, was more recent. He forgets what win- ter i was but remembers being part of a chain of men that helped WEST SIDE BUILDING MATERIAL CO. G. HOWARD LEWIS, Prop.

Pete Delaney spoke /up”at "hes point, stating that he “well remem- bers that winter, it was either 32 or ’33,” says Pete, “because I was in the ice business and only five inches of ice were cut off the lake and that was in the inlets and around the edges.” ‘That year,” Pete continues, ‘people were cutt- ing grass in January.” There are two bets made that we know of, as to the thickness of ice that will be harvested. One per- son claims that the lake will yield sixteen inches and another is pull- ling for a more moderate twelve. As for us, we don’t know, we are comparatively new at the lake, only being here since ’33. We only know there is very good swimming in the summer, if one sticks close to shore, and we know that no matter how harsh the winter may be from now on, nothing can take away the enjoyment we have got- ten out of the wonderful weather up to this week. —A.

Robins Resigns As Garage Manager Dick Robins, manager the Dal- las branch of Oliv: otors, Inc., resigned last Tuesday after four and a half years of service. Mr. Robins, who has been suffer- ing ill health lately, said he had no immediate plans for the future, but that he would take a trip to Florida shortly if his health im- proves. Dunham, former manager of Oliver Motors Used Car Lot in Kingston, has been appointed to succeed Mr. Robins. PUNCHY PARAGRAPHS Vegetables Plus Give new and zestful flavor to garden vegetables by adding a little bacon, cooked crisp and broken in small pieces. Spinach and other greens take kindly to this treatment. It’s a new idea for baby carrots, too. With Cold Meats If the main dish of the meal is cold sliced meat, it’s a good idea to have one of the other items a hot dish. It may be hot soup served at the beginning of the meal, a fresh- cooked hot vegetable, or a casser- ole dish. Here are a few suggestions, all good with cold meats: Baked macaroni or noodles with cheese, brocoli with hollandaise sauce, scal- loped potatoes and onions, succo- tash. Casserole Suggestion { Put alternate layers of cooked corned beef (cut in cubes), boiled potatoes, and cooked beets in a bak- ing dish. Pour cream sauce over all, top with crumbs and brown in the oven. A touch of grated onion gives extra flavor. Quick Pick-Up “For a hearty luncheon dish that almost makes itself—top a cesserole of scalloped corn with frankfurters, halved lengthwise and placed cut side down. Brush lightly with drip- pings; heat in moderate oven. Serve crisp cole slaw with chopped pickles added. Food for Babies Modern mothers give their babies a variety of foods at an early age. Baby's diet gets a nutritional boost when meat is included as soon as the doctor advises it. A good assort- ment of canned baby foods includ- ing meat is available. They save Mother a lot of work and they're popular with His Highness! Sunday Breakfast Cans of luncheon meat are mighty handy to have in the cel- lar. For a breakfast with plenty of “punch’’—serve panbroiled slices of luncheon meat with tender pan- cakes. And be sure there's lots of hot coffee. Don’t. sell. your antiques before calling LEIDINGER'S.
