ENGLANDER’S
By Jack Frost
Well, well. What’s what? We’ll
see.
As I said at the beginning of my
career as a columnist from Bois d’
Arc that all my stories were funny
but so. They are not all exactly
funny, that’s up to you. But what
I’m trying to say is it’s funny that
they are so. All I know is just what
I see with my own eyes. Last Satur-
day I was over in Leonard for a few
minutes and saw some friends sit-
ting around in front of the stores
next to the wall, faces outward.
They were chewing tobacco and
talking politics. One of them with
a larger chew than the others would
ever now and then squirt juice near-
ly across the sidewalk. Just as I
drove up a lady walking at a mod-
erate gait passed by this group and
this heavy chewer shot a stream of
juice intended to reach the other side
but struck this lady’s left leg half
way between knee and ankle. My,
what a face she put on but didn’t
stop to bless him out because she
didn’t want the other one soaked.
Moral: Watch your step.
Well, sir, it snowed the other day.
That isn’t news, everybody knows
snow, and most people enjoy getting
out in it and just let it fall all over
them. Youngsters like to make a
snow man and toward the front gate
one looking like the president of
the United iStates or Santa Claus or
nerhaps the chicken peddler. Yes,
there is the snow ball game and it’s
more fun than anything to have some
(certain one) to grab you around
the neck and noke snow down your
hack. Well do I remember away
back in the near past I. won’t say
iu.st when it happened but the party
m ouestion is still alive and lives in
Bonham. Anyhow it snowed and
snowed until you could wallow your
neighbor’, and roll him in the snow
nntil he looked like the snow man
himself. Well that’s just the way it
was with me.
Across the fence from my board-
ing nlace over in a neighbor’s front
yard the young lady literally noured
snow down around mv neck nntil I,
yelled for the fire denartment. It'
all happened out near 'Seven Oaks, j
But that isn’t, what T started out to :
s*>Tr, While the beautiful flakes were i
falling big and fast I was hugging
around the old fire nlace. gazing out|
the front door window, admiring na-
ture’s big counterpane. A young
hig dog that had never waded snow
before was barking, jumping high
in the air and grabbing a. mouth
full of big soft flakes. I suppose
they melted pretty pronto.
