Mr. and Mrs. Harvey From where I sit ... JyJoe Marsh As a Matter of Fact... Out of alt the newspaper and , magazine columns I read, (lie one!) I enjoy most are those that pack in a whole lot of facta unrelated facta, but each one an interesting bit of information in itself. These columns go something like this: "Did you know that hump back whales are addicted to snor ing? That bees have been broil with red, brown, and buff -color eyes? "Did you know that lead can bo converted to gold at a cost of $1,000,000 an ounce? That a 655 pound fat girl went on a diet and lost 401 pounds in 12 months? That a chrysanthemum has been devel oped that smells like a violet?" From where 1 ait, maybe I'm a kind of "Johnny-one-note." My own columns always seem to revolve around one idea a plea for us to make sure we respect the other fol-. low's rights like the right to vote for your own choice or the right to enjoy a glass of beer now and then. I may not be in style, but I believe my one fact is worth repeating and remembering! Ring are the grandparents. Rev.
