Good Ol' Days

Today, Nancy's friend Jolene Katz, a thin 13 year old girl, was here at the house. They had worked all morning, and was very satisfied with what they accomplished. The two of them had made a pie, a cherry pie that is, and for the longest time they stared at the blue-ribbon winner "The oven hot cherries simmering under the crisp lattice crust". Boy, didn't that look good, and to think, the two of them made it with no help. Soon after looking and smelling that pie, Jolene cut us a piece each. Oh, it was tasted even better then it looked...
I am a well educated man and so far has  been successful in my profession, as an eminent Republican and church leader - even though of the methodist church. I'm entitled to rank among the local patricians, but have never joined the Garden City Country Club, for their pleasures are not mine - card games, golf, cocktails, or buffet suppers.
Instead of golfing today I was acting as the chairman of a meeting of the Finney County 4-H Club. A national organization, with overseas branches whose purpose is to help those living in rural areas - and the children particularly - develop practical abilities and moral character. Nancy and Kenyon have been members from age of six.
