Thursday, March 4, 1976 Nyssa Gate City Journal. Nyssa, Oregon % Sage of Nu Acres a a • a • I By Lyn Dohewr Mvch arrived with lavish sparkling snow, coating every branch of every tree, making Christmas all over again in the evergreens, and just when we'd hoped winter was all over. Like, who needs it now? But in everything "give thanks." So. "Thank you, Lord, for the snow. It will give a last good watering, maybe, before we get down to serious gardening. Right?' Yes, did say we. In a couplet I read somewhere. "We work together, God and I. with much the most of ease, and while I keep on making poems, He keeps on making trees." George's Bossy cow has learned to unhook the barn door Now he's looking for a bolt for it. George is. Mr. and Mrs. Bob Maine have moved back to Modesto. California. Bob is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Omar Maine, and had moved to Nu Acres in order to be near his folks during the critical period of his mother's illness. She is better now. and well cared for by the family. Mrs. Alice Pulsipher was a dinner guest in the home of her son, Jesse Fry in Parma. Sunday. As she is not now driving, he came for her and then took her home later in the day. Chatting with neighbors on the phone, found out that the ailments that have been besetting me are the thing folks call the Flu. Nice to know I'm about over it. Weekend guests at the home of Mr and Mrs Ben Payne were Mr. and Mrs. George Pitkins of Troy, Idaho. Mrs. Payne met a cousin she had never seen Sunday, when George Linney a schiMil teac her from Home­ dale came to visit his Aunt Stella. Mrs. Payne's mother, who is currently staying with the Paynes. Mrs. Stella Newell, incidently, is doing fine, and should be able to return to her own home in Nampa in a few days. Alxiut that bossy cow.
