CONVERSATION BETWEEN JANIS AND SON MICHAEL

(My friend Janis lives in Vidalia LA and her son, Michael, was home for a visit.)

Michael asked, "Why do you have these papers from Kansas?"

I said, "I've been corresponding with a woman from Kansas who saw fit to look after me when I was going through hard times. She's 75 years old and has three children of her own."

"Oh, she's lonely."

"No, I don't think so Michael. She is about as busy as anyone I know. She's a trained architect and works on restoration projects. She's on half a dozen boards. I should have such an interesting life."

"Oh, she's one of those people who tells you what color to paint your house."

"Not as I understand it, Michael. She's more interested in restoring and preserving old buildings."

Then I told him a little about Ellsworth and the great cattle drives. We looked at the papers and compared them to the Concordia Sentinel.

"Ellsworth is a community of about 2700 people."

"They have color? That's impressive."
