By gi*..™ kw.,By GLENNA KLEINraim*d ittF EVERY TIME Rreally did rain pennies fromlieaven this would surely be thlt; richest little spot tins side of thw Mississippi.*Yes, Dover's monsoon season has arrived and of course all this mazy-mad rain has washed up a Hew wild weak moments.If you think you get die blues when it rains, you'll let a smile be vour umbrella after you read wh§t haptxmed to some Doverites during the HEALEY BIO (thank you Ed Sullivan) rain last Thursday night.Let's begin with Linda and Bob Bertie. About 8 that evening Mrs, Bertie heard a most peculiar *KHtmi coming from the basement oi their home on Iron Ave. tshe rushed down the steps only to find water coming up!She waded on down nnd was spellbound when she spied the source of the water. It was gushing from the sewer trap like a geyzer. The laundry, which she earlier had sorted on the* basement floor, was floating around and the brand new washer and drier were nearly half submerged in the sewer water. Everything from ivory soap to the various parts of the radio her husband had taken apart to repair ami had left on the basement floor was* afloat.Mrs Bertie, who was«so stunned she temporarily couldn’t move, finally managed to get going and raced upstairs to telephone Bob. who was at work He thought she was kidding until she began to weep. He raced home after calling a city water-pumping brigade.The city employes arrived promjitljr and began pumping the water out. A short time later members of the Ib rtles* family appeared to assist. Everyone was knee-deep in water, pulling out the numerous items afloat for over an hour.To top everything off, Linda had towels, sheets, tablecloths and other fancy linens they had received as wedding presents and hadn'tusu-d stored in large cartons in the bacement. The dirty water soaked through the boxes and saturaU-dall the unused linens! These Rems, along with the family wash, had to be taken to the home of relatives to be washed ‘the Bertles’ washer was submerged and out of commission you know*. Also, each piece of china, crystal, silverware and numerous fancy dishes Linda had carefully stored in boxes had to be washed and repacked.To make matters worse, if that is possible, the Bertles were told by the city employes that they can look forward to the same thing happening every time we have a KEALLY BIG rain!when her husband finally got bark home. Also, she had to get up and go to work lt;Wool worth's) in themorning.And speaking of morning, it was 5 a.m. when Fete arrived back home!The Don Wallicks of HD 2, Dover, also had their share of rain troubles with 12 inches of rain in their basement and 22 inches outside their residence! The couple's garage also was flooded and over a quarter inch drained into the interior of their brand new car!Fortunately, the car wasn’t harmed nnd the couple's washer, dryer and deep freeze, which were half submerged in water in the basement, were in working order after the parts were dried.Incidentally the Wallicks almost lost one of their possessions the night of the rain—the doghouse. Don had rushed outside to bring the dog into die house during the first downpour and a short time later he and his wife saw the doghouse floating past the house,After it drifted about 30 feet, da doghouse was stopped by a trailer parked on the- Wallicks’ land. Otherwise it would have floated ri out onto Woostor Hoad!ll’HO KAYS you can't combine ’’ business with pleasure?Wayne Graef spends his working hours as president of Graef Ford Inc. in Bolivar and for leisure often prepares foods from the cookbook issued by Ford.He offered three favorite recipes from the cookbook, The Ford Treasury of Favorite Recipes from Famous Eating Places,** for Culinary Corner. (I’m so delighted at finding a man who actually has. some recipes, I don’t even mind giving Ford a free plug). The biiked chicken bird and bottle is from the Bird and Bottle Inn, Garrison, N.Y.; the Steak Capuchina is from the Columbia Restaurant in Tampa. Fla., and the Baked Ham with Brandy Sauce is from the Green Hut near Coulee Dam. Washington.^ -rWiBAKED CHICKEN BIRIIAND BOTTLEAnother Doverite who had a weak moment the night of the big rain was Wilma Herman. Or was it her husband. I'ete? You decide.Accompanied by a son, Gary, Wilma headed for Canton to visit her husband's sisters and brothers-in-law'. the Bob Neals and the Ervin Snyders. She was driving up Route K when several rainclouds shot their wad (for the year) and made the highway even more of a mess than it was from earlier downpours. Afraid to turn around. Mrs. Herman drove on toward Canton.After visiting at the Neal home. Wilma and her son went to the Snyder residence and bv that time she had enough storm-driving and knew she would be too frightened to make the trip back to Hover.Mrs. Herman telephoned herhusband from the Snyder home and suggested be borrow a car anddrive to Canton to bring themhome. While Fete was chokingover the idea. Mr. Snyder suggested he drive Wilma and Gary to Dover and take Fete back to Canton to pick up their car. This plan was carried out and was workingjust fine until Pete and Ervin arrived in Canton and the former hopped into his car only to lind Wilma had done it again,Seems l’etc always leaves his set of car keys hanging in the ignition but when his wife drives the car she has a habit (which she has been trying to break) of tak ing them out. When Fete discovered the keys were not in the car he telephoned Wilma and sure enough, she had her set and hisset in her purse!Pete’s mother, Mrs. Lou Harrison of Dover, then was called into the act and, accompanied by her husband, she took a set of keys to Canton. Wilma? She went to bed because she didn’t want to be upNever dreaming: it would cause him a weak moment. Bob Gum-mere spent weeks making a table-top cupboard for the bathroom ofhis home at 1336 Dover Ave.The night he finished the piece of furniture Mr. Gummere carried it out the basement door and around to the front door, havingpreviously decided that was thebest way to get the cupboard onto the main floor of the house.Bob also had been clever enough to previously measure the front door and the bathroom door so there would be no difficulty in voived in getting the furniture inside. However, he forgot about the narrow offset leading into the bathroom and was unable to get the cupboard through it! Or. asBob’s wife, Mary, said: He forgot wooden cupboards don't bend around corners!After recovering from the initial shock. Mr. Gummere grabbed his measuring tape and went to work. Did he cut the cupboard down to fit the doorway? Heavens no. lie found he could get the piece of furniture into the bathroom through the window—after removing its screens, glass and steelframe!Bob's still laughing over his boo-boo. which reminded us of the one we heard which took place at the building which will be the newKin.ser Bowling Alleys.

One evening one of the cooks received a tip'* (doubtless from a girl) that a group of boys-wi’l-be-boys were planning to raid the kitchen that night.The cook relayed this startling bit of information to the businc -manager of the camp, Spike Ulrich. Dover car salesman and amember of the Sharon Church.As Spike's duties included traveling back and forth to the nearest town for fresh food and kitchen supplies, he was very distress-cd at the thought of having the pantry raided. And, of course, he was even more upset to think that a group of Moravian boys would even think of lifting food!So, Mr. Ulrich prepared a little sign concerning the m e n t a 1 anguish inflicted on those who lt;Bridal Party Held For Shirley BakerMiss Shirley#Ann Baker, whos«marriage to William Brug Jr. will take place Aug, 10, was recentlyhonored at a bridal shower given at the home of her aunt, Mrs. H»»c-co Pompoy, RD 3, New' Philadelphia.Hostesses were Mrs. Point -Mrs. Dominic Ferchill, Miss Hazel Myers and Sylvia Shane.

Steak and chick* n are his favorites and he usually prepares them in a rotisserie or in the barbecue pit which is built into the fireplace in the recreation room of their home on RD 3. Dover.One of six children of Mr. and Mrs. Harry Graef Sr, of RD 3,Wayne credits any culinary talent* he has inherited to his mother, who is really some cook. His wife is the former Rose Ann Huffman of Bolivar and they have twochildren, Dianne, 10, and David, 8.Oh yes. There is one stipulation Mr. Graef makes when he prepares food for the family or guests.

Ann derided to rheek the mailbox and after doing so she hopped into the earand drove to work. Later, when she needed the equipment fromhome. Mrs. Groh couldn’t find itan w here.Then she remembered having placed the items—-a bright red dishpan, several tea towels and a wash cloth—on the ear fender when she went to the mailbox and knew she had failed to put them inside the car before driving away!In case you are wondering (as I did) why Ann didn’t hear the dishpan when it bounced off the ear, it was a plastic one. And Mrs. Groh is wondering how far she drove with the red pan ritiingher fender.ReunionsMembers of the family late Philip Baer Sr. willof thehold areunionOhio.tomorrow at Plymouth,Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth Kirker of Mineral City are announcing theengagement and approaching marriage of their daughter Judith, to Robert Frame of Bolivar.
