Roswell And Its People Column Snips Of Local Wit
J W Miley of Roswell Tractor says they are set for a big day tomorrow with Joe Gentry In Hollywood at their place. The House keeper's Daughter brings laughs. The Smiths and Moores have not been in the European war, but ski at Ruidoso. Barney Hall of Pecos Valley Grocery notes fewer groceries but restocking. If you find a 15 pound turkey wandering, check the want ads. E M Norton returns from a Dallas meeting while Clifflee Cate absconds there. The armory will be a beauty when finished. Painters appear in odd spots like Fuller Brush men. The editor confesses he must read the column first to see if it is fit to print, then again with proof. If you doubt grape nuts, note the basketball team heights on sports page.
