Due to excellent work on the part of the fire-North San Juan News By Idabel Covert One of the more impossible things to have to do is to write a news column when there is no news. No news suitable for this type of column, that is. To be sure, people have visitors: and they, in turn, visit others; and they take business trips occasionally, too; but it seems to me readers must get pretty tired of that sort ofthing, week after week. The thought of a gossip column, a la Suzy Knickerbocker, is intriguing, I must admit, and I discard it reluctantly for two reasons. One, gossip is mean and petty and usually untrue, tho' plentiful; and two, the paper wouldn't print it anyway. Salty little snippets of advice in the style of Dear Abbey might be a way to fill up space. Heaven knows I'm prepared to advise on any and all subjects. But I'm never asked for advice. So that's out. However, I think I have a good idea. Many subscribers to the Nugget are ex-residents of the North San Juan Ridge, some who were born and raised hese, who have in their memories fascinating stories of the way it used to be. Maybe they'd like to share these with old friends and neighbors who stilllive here through this column, I would be more than pleased to hear from anyone who would like to have his or her letters printed here. As a starter, does anybody know the origin of the bell in the Cherokee School? So far I haven't been able to unearth anything. Today, since the sun is shining after several days of cold rain, I'm going to take a walk around French Corral where the old homesites used to be; to see if the China lilies are in bloom. It's been so cold this winter that they're late. If the sunshine lasts long enough, the ~glmond-trees--will-start-flower-—.— ing; and then it won't matter what the weather does, because to me it will be spring again.
