I This is written the week before the Christmas conjunction --we
mean, the howly-day weekend --when all the madness
comes to an abrupt end --just as do a few thousand turkeys.
Planned is the annual family "conjunction" as scattered members
of the Hart clan gather for feasting and gossip --a day (and
event) we always look forward to with anticipation... I In our
mail the last week or so have come stacks of greeting cards from
friends and subscribers--many with a personal message
inside that we especially appreciated. And altho it is hard to
single out one greeting above others, we were most impressed
by the folder from the Anton Bohms, of Denver, Colo. Anton
designs and prints his own, and this year he incorporated in
the design a stamp-size, hand-printed booklet, containing the
story of"The Little Match Girl". by Hans Christian
Anderson. Truly a beautiful piece of work.. .
I Altho they'd been gone from their home in Atascadero, Calif.,
more than a month, Dr. and Mrs Jos. G. Moore tooF-
afew minutes to visit The ABERREE staff recently while on their
way home. We hardly had time for more than a cup of
coffee, bnt we did learn that they'd only that morning come from
Cherokee, Okla., where they had been visiting Mrs.
Moore's father, Ernest Payne. Fortunately, it was Saturday, and
both the Ed. & Pub. were at home -- which isn't always the
case early in the morning, as Amelia Jacobsen discovered when she
droppeff in on the way from Waupaca, Wis., to
California -- and succeeded only in leaving a note in our
mailbox. While writing the note, appatently, Amelia discovered
the fun one can have by writing words backward -- such as Enid is
dine. evil is live. God is
dog -- and then she ran out of paper...
i V I T A L STATISTICS - Our sympathies to Art Coulter, of
Columbus, Ohio, in the death of his father Norman Arthur
Coulter, 67, oh 2T_Nov.,__aTt__er an lness of almost a year...
III Congratulations to Dennis and Joyce Smith, of
DuUtable, Beds., England, on the birth 23 Sept., of a 6%-pound
daughter, Catherine Ruth. We didn't learn of this until
Catherine was old enough to pose for a picture with
hergrandmother ... Iq Congratulations, also, to Jim and Carole
Pinkham
' of Gaifh-ersburg, Md., who parentedd a daughter. Rene Amelia.
Wei ght and date of birth unknown. However, we did learn
that little Rene's arrival was doubly assured by the attendance
of two--count 'em, ONE TWO--medical overseers: A;
osteopath by the parents' choice and an M.D. by grace of legal
monopoly and chicanery. Jim helped, too, Carole admits--
by staying on the floor under the delivery table...
41 Word has just been received of the passing of Dr. B. E.
RoOssling. executive secretary of the Florida Society for
Psychical Research, and an occasional ABERREE contributor . ... I
Should we see a scholarly looking "professor", and a
heart-faced blonde wandering in and around the type cases in The
ABERREE plant, we'll first pinch them to see how solid
they are before calling police. Eva Woodford, of Lost Creek,
W.V-a., says tHey're our #t guides", and sent "mug Pictures" so
we could recognize them if they get brazen enough to
materialize... J Barbara and Lee Kelley (Phoenix, Ariz.) report
their
gold-mining venture is adding a power shotel and dump
trucks-which should help Lee's canyon digging even more than a
diet of super-vitamins.
AN ASPIRIN AND A TRANQUILIZER FOR THE FEARFUL
Altho we claim no "seership", we predict no world catastrophe
during the February
glanetary line-up (or whatever you want to.call it). W ich is a
pretty safe rediction. If
nothing happens, we can smile knowingy at all those breathing
relief from their fears-and if
the world is destroyed, none will be around to smilrk knowingly
at us.
