the Community
Aleen Schalansky was re-admitted to the
Phillips County Hospital over the
weekend for observation and treatment.
Joseph Burns was dismissed from the
Salina Regional Medical Center last week
and is recovering at home.
Cathy Diercks is back at Agra for

Harold and Delores Standley are missed

Phillipsburg to be near their daughter
and husband, Twila and Dennis
Fredrickson. They would appreciate a
drop-in visit or note. Their address is
Prairie Wind Villa, P.O. Box 628,
Phillipsburg, KS 67661.
George and Sandy Powell are taking a few
days off from driving the school busses
and enjoying a Snowcoach Tour of
Yellowstone National Park with Sunflower
Tours.
As this column is written on the first
day of March, it appears March is coming
in like a lamb although it is foggy and
cloudy with light snow falling earlier
this morning. Everyone is ready for
spring with its seven summer days like
old-timers would predict.
The quote of the week borrowed from the
Thunder Ridge Weekly Bulletin is: "It
was one of those March days when the sun
shines hot and the wind blows cold: when
it is summer in the light, and winter in
the shade."
