How about Norman R. Faust of Springfield who graduated with high
honors from SLU!
And if Wanda Hughes doesn't come back with her great kids and finish
our conservation I don't know if rll ever talk to another pond visitor! Some
folks I just don't have time to converse with. others I just direct to the
newspaper stand in front of Paul's,,This great lady not only stops by for long
chats about the most interesting stu"fl,.she even writes great poems about
our meetings (Gosh, I hope she s not fallin 9 for me. Alligators are legendary
heart breakers).
That's it for 1985 and this extra special early New Year's edition.
Pinchpenny is stamping his pudgy feet and demanding my slightly-wet copy
muttering some nonsense about a long-missed deadline. But before I go ]
just wanted to wish each and everyone of you the very best in 1986 and ask
just one favor of you: Please go easy on the pond water New Year's Eve.
(Thanks)

built P.D. manger
By VIOLET COLLIER
Garden Editor
Each year a beautiful Nativity
Scene is placed by the Police
Station. So many people come by
and admired. The children love
baby Jesus.
Pictures are made each year
and rm very pleased and happy
about it.
The two men who work for me
are to be thanked for each year
cutting the palmetto in the woods
each year and putting them on the
manger which has been repaired
each year. These men are Charlie
Dixon and Ivy Christy.
There's another person who
deserves a big Thank You and
that is our own John Hoover from
the Ponchatoula Feed and Seed
Store. He doesn't wait for me to
ask for the hay to put on the grass,
to make a floor. Each year it is
brought in from his farm.
Special Thanks to these three
guys who never get their picture in
the paper but who play an
important part in the beautiful
Nativity Scene.
