In countries where this matter of splicing is under the management of papa and mama who are wont to do a bit of dickering this male pur suit phobia may be somewhat stifled but here in this land of the free and the brave matrimony is males' choice always. That is, he thinks it is and sorry the union where he does not. Of course there are certain male attention-getters that should be ad hered to and among these not the least of them is cleanliness.

What do they expect us to do? Let the darn thing ride up around the midships and cut our tummies in two? The heels. We do not like the way that some of them tug and squirm getting settled into their collars and what nots, either. Then we read another list of males who gave their expert opinion on outstanding points of interest in a woman’s anatomy and they ran from the shining light in high hair does to pink toes peeping out of CARL H.

Then you've got him, gal, you got him. But success in this husband-get- t.ng business like every other suc cessful activity depends upon one being their own self. Develop all those personalities of looks and ac tions that the Creator gave you for your very own. Forget the movie stars, the radio performers, the popular girl of the hour in your own set. Be yourself and if that self needs a bit of carving down, start now to do it. You may not get them all, but sure as anything you'll land one and that’s all any one woman can handle. And what is more you’ll not have to do any running after, for when you least expect it Mr. Right will be Johnny at the rat hole with a ring for your finger and the promise of an elec tric washer for you, if you’ll but trip up the aisle by his side and with him say “ I do". Anyway do the best you can with yourself and the law of averages will take care of the rest, just as it does in an honest game of poker. And don’t do the running after. And now comes Easter time to the world and we of this land bend our knee in prayerful gratitude and lift our voices in sweet hosannas that the Lord has risen. Even as our forefathers have done since the first American home was hewed from the primeval forest. But in many lands it will not be so. For the faith of their fathers is denied them. Men forced from their fam ilies labor as slaves for a captor na tion for no other reason than they fought for their country, their homes and their loved ones. May the God of our Fathers spare us from a like fate and turn our thoughts to His simple Truth in our daily living, one with another. But with Easter we fling off our old garments of winter and deck ourselves in the cheerful colors of spring, even as Mother Nature flings off the drabness of bare hill sides and covers them with the gay blossoms and green grasses. And here in Nyssa these past weeks our stores have been filled with Easter suggestions. At Mrs. Atkeson’s store this past week-end they did have a fine two- for-one sale whereby milady bought a new street frock for the Easter parade and got a gay house frock free to cook the Sunday dinner in. Verily 'twas a bargain day. But so is every day at Mrs. Atkeson’s and now there are some new selections on her racks just waiting for an Easter wearer and at pleasing prices, too. And this past week we didst ac complish something that for three years has been in our mind to do. Set out trees where no trees were. That on a hot summers day a stranger perchance might escape a bit from an over-active sun. Even as we did in other years along shady streets that offered surcease from the shimmering heat. And new lawns must be planted and we do know that if we buy the seed at the Thompson seed store 'twill be YOUR FINANCIAL"PROBLEMS ARE NOT SOLVED BY WORRY..

Regardless of what thy need may be, pay them a visit for If they have It and they are apt to, then a pretty penny thou wilt save and never again wilt thou depend upon a catalogue to do thy shopping in. And what could have been more Eastery than the gay array of flow ers and shrubs on display at the Wray’s Dime Store? Sure and ’twas a reminder of the street flower venders of San Francisco town. And a sweet Easter present one would make too. A little shrub that planted in the garden would grow with the years and bring ever returning sweet memories of the friend who had given it. And if thou art among the lucky ones whose thoughts do turn to a new home this spring with a promise of thy inner wish being ful filled then forget not that the best of lumbers and building materials are cheapest in the long run and let the home planners at the Boise Payette help thee with thy home plans and building desires. Not only is the Eastertide come but also the fishing season is among us when the old jalopy will be put to extra driving tasks and led over back trails where in case of a breakdown no help is. So ’twill pay thy John well if he will run the heap in for an overhaul and once over by Ed Pruyn’s crew at his gar age and repair shop on Third just off Main.

And Easter 1st fast becoming a feast day little less than Christmas. Only on the table now wilt be all the delicacies of early spring. ’Tis a bit too early for friers this year but other chicken is plen tiful or a fine pork or ham roast wouldst not come amiss and any of these one canst procure at the Nys sa Packing company store. Tender and juicy and fine flavored. And at the Wilson Grocery mart they wilt have all the new spring vegetables and fruits, asparagus, radishes red and snappy, ruhbarb, cauliflower, solid and white of head, lettuce and then some. Besides all the other things the cook wilt need to round out the Easter menu. And at eventime, when day is done a fine show wilt there be at the Nyssa Theatre, one that wilt amuse and entertain the whole fam ily. A happy ending to a happy day, aye verily.
