A little of

This and that

My good friend, Jerry Grimes, had a birthday Wednesday. Jerry is a Marine Corps veteran of World War n and he served in the South Pacific. 000 Also, I understand Mary Deem had a birthday this week. I hope they both will forgive me for this more or less belated Happy Birthday greeting. 000 I want to thank Frank Clark for the grapefruit and oranges . Frank and his wife, Bonnie, have returned after spending three weeks in Naples, Florida. Frank says rates were reasonable, service in restaurants was excellent, and that northern tourists are most welcome in the Sunshine States this winter. 000 Glad to note that Mary Brown has returned home after her stay in the Putnam County Hospital. I know that her husband, Howard, and their daughter, a student in North' Putnam High School, are happy. 000 Let us not forget the birthday of our Civil War President Abraham Lincoln this coming Wednesday, February 12th. This date is also Ash Wednesday. 000 When I went to Old First Ward school, George Washington’s birthday was February 22nd. It will be observed Monday, February 17 this year. I don’t get it. By the way youngsters, Friday, February 14th is St. Valentine’s Day. I wonder if they still have valentine boxes in the schools like they did years ago. 000 Glad to learn that my friend, Marvin Jones, was able to return home from the hospital Thursday following his accident last week. Hope to see you soon, Marvin.

Government estimates are that a one-week shutdown would cause a 5 percent drop in the gross national product.
