BERGERSON'S OCEAN FRESH SEAFOOD MARKET Open Fri., and Sat., March 22-23 9:00 A.M. to 6:00 P.M. CRABS - OYSTERS When Lawrence Brooks of Ar nold, Nebraska comes to Ver nonia to visit with the Dean Woods who live near the Grange hall on Timber road, he is visiting his brother-in-law, his sister, his father-in-law, and stepmother-in law, but actually he is visiting only Mr. and Mrs. Dean Woods. So, as Lawrence puts it, this makes his wife and brother-in- law and father-in-law, his step niece and nephew and makes him a great uncle to his own children. This also makes his nephews his brother-in-laws and his wife his step niece. The reason for all this is Mrs. Lawrence Brook’s father married Lawrence’s sister and Lawrence then married his brother-in-law's daughter, which makes Dean Wood his brother-in-law and his father-in-law. If things keep up at this rate, Lawrence said that some day he may become his own grandpa. MEN WHO HAVE been taking the class in welding and mechanics at VHS are. from left to right: Harry Sandon.
