SCHOOL’S OUT – VACATION TIME IS HERE

Did you ever think about the time you were in school, mainly when that last bell of the

school year rang. You, and me and a host (or mob) of kids came out the doors, shirtails

(sic) flying like it was a canon blast, set of (sic) by the teachers, instead of a bell. I had a

teacher one time who cried the last day of school. I don’t believe to this day it was

because she would miss us for those three months. I think it was one of two reasons

which are, it would only be three months until she had to cope with us again, or that her

nerves were so shot, the sudden release, like a rubber band coming back with a snap, and

she was crying for JOY. The books will be forgotten, the shoes stuck under the bed, and

the bare feet and swimming suits will be the “high” fashions. The school shirts, pants,

and pretty starched dresses will be forgotten, except on Sunday. Boys will be seen

running to the river with their fishing poles and wiggling worms to catch that “big one”

they didn’t last summer. The sunburns will be in style as Shorewood has two swimming

“holes” within easy access to the kids. But, of course, the fathers still must work to

supply more food for this now more hungry-than-ever broods, and the mothers will have

more wet towels than ever to wash and keep in ready supply. The doors will be

constantly opening and shutting, for the cry of the summer will be “I’m hungry, Where’s

my ball, Bat, or Jump rope? Or maybe it will be “Mom, here comes the ice cream man,

Do you have a dime? Gee, Mom, that was yesterday. What about today? I need

something cold to cool me off now. Aw, gee, whiz, what good is cold water when a guy

needs a bottle of pop or somethin’?” CHEER UP, MOM! IT’S ONLY FOR THREE

MONTHS! UGH!!!

NOTICE!!!

Due to a broken typewriter, we had the decision of using another one, or not running the

paper this week. After careful consideration, and deciding it would be easier (sic) hire a

substitute typist, who has a typewriter, then to run in answer to the ringing phone in

answer to why? (sic) there was not paper, we did the next best thing. Please forgive any

short comings you may find in this edition. Editor – A. Blaser –

Father’s Day (handwritten title)

Father’s Day — The day set aside, like Mother’s Day, to honor our Fathers. It has been

set for the third Sunday of June. Some of us remember our fathers, and some do not. As

for me, I remember my father very vividly. He was a cripple all of his life, and walked

with a cane. But when it came to playing baseball, he had a knack, he would the ball, lay

down his cane and run for all he was worth. He also would play hide-and-seek with us.

He always did the “seeking” while we hide. His method was to sit on the back porch, or

goal, and outwait us. He figured that a child’s (sic) curiosity would not permit them to

stay hid very long and as we came out to see what was going on, he would call 1-2-3.

My father seldom did the whipping in our family He figured that the mother was there

when the mistake was done and it was her place to do the whipping. I remember only

three times that he did take into me. One was for talking back to him, and the other two

were for running from my mother when I had a whipping coming. I was tied to the water

pipes in the basement and soundly whipped with the business end of the razor strap,

applied to the lower back side designed for the purpose. As a family we had a great deal

of fun, even during the depression. He had a steady job, making 70 cents an hour, to

feed nine “kids”. My mother would buy a bolt of black material, because it was cheaper

than any other color. We had patches on our clothes, but dad said that as long as a person

is clean, inside and out, we were as good as the next guy. I can still hear him saying

“We’re poor, but we can also be proud.” DADS do not always expect a present for

Father’s Day, you can go to him and just tell him how much you love him, and chances

(sic) are he will like that more than any gift you can buy, after all you cannot buy real love

and affection.

Summer – ’62 (handwritten)

Summer came a couple of days ago with a “normal” temperature of 72*. As some say —

as summer comes in – so the season will be. Others suggest that we had a long winter,

therefore, we will have a short summer. Or—we had a cold wet winter—we will have a

hot dry summer. Others yet say—Spring came early with a terrific heat wave (sic) – so

we will have a terribly hot, unbearable summer. I heard one lady say, the difference in

summer and winter is (sic), in winter you can stay indoors and put on more clothes, but

during the heat of summer, there is a limit to how much you can take off. If a person had

the money, ambition or what-have-you, you could live in (sic) the winter in Florida, and

the summers in northern Canada. OR stay entirely in the house and turn the air-

conditioning on. Of course, you cannot please everyone all the time, no matter where you

live. So whether it is hot and dry, cool and wet, short and long, it’s here, so are we—so

grin and bear it, if you can. Winter will come soon and then we can complain of the cold,

and hope summer will be along soon.

Do you have windows that need washing? A car to clean? A yard to mow? Maybe you

have a babysitting job. If so, there are a lot of teenage boys and girls who are looking for

such things. They need something to do with their time. They also have the need for the

feel of two nickels rubbing against each other. These they could use for swimming or

maybe and ice cream bar. There are a few that I know off-hand, and anyone who has the

Jobs for Teenagers, may call this paper. We will run a list each week of the jobs that are

available and the names of the boys and girls who are willing to do them. There will be

no charge for any job for teenagers listed in this paper. So if you are looking for a boy to

cut grass, wash your car, wash your windows, or a girl who will babysit while you go to

town, or something give us a call. If you are a teenager and want one of these jobs get in

touch with us this week.
