CLEVEDON.
CLEYEDON RUMOURS. It is said:
That Rip Van Winkle is hibernating, i.e. passing the winter in sleep.
That Real Clevedonite, alias Noah, is quite right about the good roads in Clevedon.
That Alf. is looking better since his trip to " the islands." That the brainless youths at the Red Cross Concert were a disgrace to Clevedon.
That Mr Bickford expressed his sorrow that Clevedon people had such individuals in their midst.
That the North Road people will wring their hands if they lose their Bell!
That Uncle Barney has been giving young Tom lessons in driving motor tractors!
That the Prophet Bamuel is at a loss to explain the present dryness of the weather after saying last year that the war caused the excessive rainfall
That some mistook the new magistrate's name for our own little (?) J.E. And a fine judge (of sheep) he is too. Lest—er -we forget! That Clevedon possesses a horse ambulance bought 20 years ago and used once. Why not exhibit it on Bed Cross days as an interesting relict of the past'? That chairman Munro is willing to supply (gratis) any quantity of brains to the youths who disturbed the Red Cr..99 Lecture on Fiiday night. Come early to avoid the crush.
That the uevedon people are pining for Bip and Dora to enliven their long winter evenings with some more episodes. Wake up, Rip! How about "A trip to Ytawa by motor ?" Jack will be on the " Luke" out!
