I have talked with Lynn Haguewood and Helen who say they are putting it off just a while longer, maybe waiting until spring then won't have to dig them! A little snow is flitting about. Condon had about four inches over the week end, which made all kids there very happy. Of course the skiers here are anxiously waiting for enough snow to ski. And we need snow when we travel to the mountains to get our Christmas tree with several others, which ends up in quite an outing for the families. ooo LEXINGTON BRIDGE winners Thursday night at the home of Lois Hunt were Lucia Cutsforth, high, and Ginger Wilkinson, sec ond high.

The styles will not change no ticeably but the color change was noted. Just so skirt lengths will not continue going to a short or long extreme!
