Undoubtedly the new son of Harold and Lottie DeArmond will make his grandchildren open their eyes in wonder when he tells them of the deepness of the snow and the coldness of the cold when he shoveled paths in the blizzard back in January, 1918. Miss Verne White and Mrs. Della MatL-, filled dental engagements at Nortn Judson on the Monday following “the” storm. Verna says it was nice of the train to wait fpr her, but she was disappointed in the dentist’s painless extraction of an ulcerated tooth. Mrs. Murray Kinaman, of San Pierre, visited a short time last Wednesday evening with Mr. and Mrs. Matt.
