Here's a prediction . . . non-
political ... about coming events
in Canadian. We're going to be
treated to real variety in ama-
teur theatricals in the next few
months. The Senior class has
scheduled "The Night of Janu-
ary 16th," a drama of great sus-
pense, for early in March. In
April, the Curtain Club will stage
"My Friend Irma" . . . 'nuff said
... for the Boy Scouts; and the
first week in May will see fac-
ility members and possibly a
few parents in a barefoot hill-
billy production, "Feudin* Over
Yonder."

' Last week-end's heavy snow
caused a lot of well-laid plans to
go awry . . the Scouts' group
attendance at church and the
PTA Father's Night, among other
things. With luck, both of these
particular events will come at a
later date.

* I've yet to hear of anyone com-
plaining about the heavy snow-
fall. Even those whose cars were
temporarily out of use and who
had to depend on shank's mare
for transportation were not un-
happy. All anyone hereabouts
was concerned with was the
amount of moitsure in that beau-
tiful white stuff . . . that being
what we've all hoped for and
prayed for for so long.

were dusted off and devised for
sledding after the snow. One of
the most ingenious I saw was
the overturned hood off a '42
Ford, chrome - trimmed, mind
you, in which 10 or 12 young
men were having a gay tow-ride
around town.
Haven't decided whether the
youngsters or oldsters enjoyed
the snow more. But I do know
that lots of us oldsters forgot
our years for a little while . . .
and later remembered some mus-
cles we'd forgotten we had!

You may never have to patch
the knees of blue jeans. But lots
of us do and there are ways of
making it easier. First of all, of
course, are iron-on patches to be
had at Pinson's in traditional
dark-blue denim as well as a
variety of other colors and plaids.
Properly applied they're the sim-
plest way to make these repairs.
But even with proper applica-
tion, the patches will loosen up.
So before that happens, do this:
Slit the outside seam on the leg
for six or eight inches in the
area where the patch is to be
applied. Now it's easy to ma-
chine-stitch around the edge of
the patch to ensure it staying on.
Sew up the seam again . . .
might make that double to be
sure it holds . . . and you're
through.

LIVESTOCK NEWS:
Cattle and Hog
Sales Are Brisk;
Prices Down
FORT WORTH—The movement
of cattle and hogs continued at
unusually heavy levels Monday
'around the major marketing cir-
cle. This coupled with reports of
very slow movement of meat at
wholesale levels in major con-
sumer centers of population, re-
sulted in a downturn of prices.
Cornbelt markets reported fed
steers weak to $1 and more low-
er. Chicago had the largest Feb-
ruary run in 37 years—or since
1919, on Monday. Twelve major
markets again chalked up a run
of hogs in excess of 103,000 as
movement to market was resum-
ed after last week's storms.
Historically February is usual-
ly one of the lowest, if not the
lowest month, for fat cattle pri-
ces. The collapse of fat cattle
prices the first time since World
War II took place in February
1949 when choice fed steers sold
at $18 and $19 at Fort Worth.
This low price was struck the
third week in February.
Fed steers sold at Fort Worth
on Monday as low as at any time
this winter. Prices were 50 cents
to $1 or more under average pri-
ces a week earlier. Cows were
active and strong. Bulls ruled
fully steady. Stackers and feed-
ers were fully steady. Slaughter
calves fully steady to strong.
Hogs Dip
Butcher hogs sold 25 to 50
cents lower at Fort Worth Mon-
day and topped at $13.75 to $14.
Less desirable weights and
grades sold from $11 to $13.50,
Sows sold from $10 to $12. Some
light pigs were selling in the $9
to $11 range.
Some farmers reported that
young sows were being disposed
of in their section, as the farm-
ers were giving up in disgust as
the swine price situation con
tinued to show no signs of im
provement. However, there has
not been a noteworthy increase
in the numbers of young sows
on the market here as yet, and
reports indicate that those being
marketed are going to sausage
makers In their home localities
for the most part.
Lamba Sell Strong
Despite bearish reports from
the dressed meat trade on the
Eastern Seaboard (where the
bigger part of the lambs and
mutton are eaten) the lamb
trade was stronger at Fort Worth
Monday. Prices on choice lambs
ranged from $6.75 for Some No. 3
pelt lambs and for $17 to $17.50
for No. 2 pelt lambs, up to $17.50
to $18 for No. 1 or Fall shorn
lambs.

playing games of bridge, "42"
and Canasta. Approximately fif-
ty-two were in attendance, in-
cluding twenty-six members and
their guests.

la mode, tea and coffee.
