a bit bui-.ptious put on the slow
pedal again. Bye and bye he will get
good and mad and in spite of hell
and high water will do a half-Nel
son c:i you that he wilt call loves
embrace and get in a kiss that will
leave you panting for air. 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

there is sure to do so. Tis tagged
and guaranteed to be pure seed.
And we didst chat this week with
our friends at the Nyssa Trader
and didst look over the many things
that they have there to sell at so
reasonable a price. 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

heap in for an overhaul and once

And when services are ended this

over the rest of the Easter paraders
and hast decided that thou and thy
flock didst not do so bad in the mat
ter of appearance, then wilt come
the dinner hour. And Easter 1st fast

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.

time and thy gas going farther.
