"FLOWERS FOR ALL OCCASIONS"
Up at the North Pole where the
nights are six months long two
Eskimo women were outside of
their igloos one day hanging up
the wash. They were talking abut
their husbands getting plastered
on spiked whale oil.
"You know" said one "it's get-
ting to be the limit my husband
didn't come in until half-past
January!"
from there on it was no easy job.
In the final match against Gard-
ner and Hampton of Hamilton one
set went 12-14 with the boys from
Hamilton winning but the Lometa
boys rallied and won the next
three sets 6-4; !i-6; 6-4.
In the girls doubles Jane Steen
and June Tyson of Goldthwaite
had little double m their matches
however as they trounced Adams
