Marie's Mutiny*
By Marie Nelm
Hasn’t our brief spell of warm
weather been wonderful?
I really enjoyed being able to turn
off the fires and open the windows
and doors Saturday and Sunday. It’s
refreshing to get rid of the stuffy in-
door air which collects in homes dur-
ing the winter months. ■
Colder weather is on the way again,
so I’m glad I had the opportunity to
enjoy our brief ‘winter summer.’
* mh j
Last week I beard Willard Scott say
on the Today Show that Indian Som-
mer is really the January thaw, not
the hazy hot months of September
and October.
Scott said the Indians called the
winter thaw Indian summer because
the warmer weather brought fresh
growth to many plants and they were
able to find fresh greens to eat.
mh
Maybe that’s right.
I’m certainly not going to argue
that point since the warm weather we
get in January and February alway
makes me want to get out and dig up
the yard.
Add a teaspoon of lemon juice per
each quarter-pound of butter when
sauteeing mushrooms. It will keep
them firm and white and add a
marvelous flavor.
Coal and diamonds are made of the
same chemical element-carbon.
Although I know winter is not over,
and it’s too early to plant, the warmth
generates a burst of enthusiasm to
get out and enjoy the outdoors.
mh
I have never made a practice of
volunteering to hoe, but the winter I
was 15 I got out and hoed Russian
Thistles during the February warm
spell. I wasn’t told to hoe, I actually
wanted to. I just got the hoe and went
to work.
Now that’s getting entfausiasic!
mh
Hopefully we will have warm
weather during the St. Patrick’s
Celebration this year. It has been
scheduled for March 18-20.
During the coining weeks, we will
keep you posted (Hi upcoming ac-
tivities associated with the annual
celebration.
The Chamber of Commerce and the
City of Dublin are working together
this year to sponsor a special Clean
Up Day prior to the annual
celebration.
mh ,
Let’s all get enthusiastic and get
our town as clean as possible. We
have many out of town'guests in town
each year during the St. Patrick’s
Celebration. Let’s show our visitors
we are proud of our town and enjoy
keeping it clean.
St. Patrick’s Day is only eight
weeks away, so we need to take ad-
vantage of every warm day to get
ready. It promises to be a lot of fun.

Utters to the Editor
I have just experienced a very hours put into their project, did not have enough support from the
disheartening Live Stock Show and get anything in return. business people.
Sale. The kids can not raise these The sale was not pushed by the an-
As the kids that had a lot of money, animals and have to sell them like nouncer or the auctioneer and the
and a awful lot of hard work and long they did this year for they did not small amount of business people that
was there just wasn’t bidding like
they usually do at the sale. I have
very high regards to Eugene Camp-
bell and his son Bill from the Quickie
Grocery in Dublin and Stephenville
as they were there in person and saw
the disappointed look on the kids
faces and they stepped in an raised
each one that didn’t get as much as a
dollar a pound to a dollar a pound,
and it is people like them that might
be able to see another show and sale
for Erath Co.
KSTV did their part toward adver-
tising the show and sale, but it didn’t
help any, and when these kids don’t
get the support that they deserve then
they can’t look forward to another
project and if they don’t have a pro-
ject then there can’t be a county show
and surely Erath County doesn’t want
to see that happen.
The Stephenville Empire Tribune
could have at least given this once a
year event the space they should have
for pictures of the kids that got high
honors not just one or two but all of
them.
I am just a concerned grandmother
of two grandchildren that had pro-
jects in the show and sale.
So please give this some thought as
surely you don’t want to see the coun-
ty show and sale just fade away.
