 Linda's Little People, a day
care for children, recently
gathered goods for Food
Bank's Thanksgiving effort
because when Linda's son
lost the contents of his
refrigerator during the storm,
Food Bank came to the
rescue. What a nice way to
say, "Thanks!"

 I've heard that Doc Hal
Brewer came home 60
pounds lighter from an
exciting two-week medical
mission trip to Guatemala
with Bill and Laura Midyette.
 Brewer's son Les tells me
that before Dad left he was
able to abscond about 60
pounds of vitamins to take
with him (vitamins are in high
demand in the rural areas).
The Midyettes have been
making the trip regularly and.

Lynn and Hal have always
wanted to join them. Every-
thing just came together
nicely this year for the
foursome. I'd love a picture!
(Les's wife, Dr. Saira Khan,
took over Hal's old office at
303 Plant Ave. N. for her
family medical practice.)


 Can you remember saying
to your kids, "get the lead out
of your feet?"
 David Green told me a story
that gives new meaning to
that phrase. A friend of his, an
ex Marine and retired Eastern
Air Lines agent, arrived home
one night after an unsuccess-
ful fishing trip to the inter-
coastal waterway. He threw
his new cast net over the
clothesline and went to bed.
 The next morning over
coffee, he remembered
forgetting to wash the salt out
of the net. He went outside
and was shocked to see his
brand new cast net torn to
shreds. Then he noticed his
prize Doberman, with her
belly dragging the ground.
That was one not-so-smart
dog or a hungry one, and one
expensive cast net.
 The ex Marine was $500
lighter, the dog 13 pounds
lighter after a trip to the vet.
