I am probably one of the last people to find it, but I thought I would send you a quick note anyway. I found the fishhook as part of the bottom leaf on page 8 in the Spring Planting article by Pastor Ken Kotzer. Have a great weekend, Sue, and, as usual, it was a great May edition of the Gazette. Thanks.

Thank you once again for sending the Victoria Gazette out to Arizona. I went through the paper about ten times and could not find the fishhook. Anxious to see where it is in the next issue. From now on please send the paper to our St. Bonifacius home. Leon thinks you played an April Fool's joke this time.

Hi, Sue. I wondered if it would be possible to get a print of the picture of the St. Victoria Catholic School taken in 1905 that was on the back page of the last Gazette, in your section entitled "Victoria Moments." I had never seen that picture before and I enjoyed seeing many of my relatives in it. Can you let me know, or who might be the person to contact? Thank you for your very interesting paper. I enjoy reading of the early days in Vic-toria even though my home now is in Wisconsin.

See our enclosed change of address and cash for postage. Bill and I are look-ing forward to our move to Victoria and the condos on the Shores of Stieger Lake. Thank you for keeping us informed.

Hello, Sue, the great editor. I'm indicating the location of your fishhook in the May Gazette on page 8 in the leaf. It was fun finding it and, as you say, sinker in the mail. Have a nice day.

Dad always wanted to be a writer, and you made it possible. And now we have this wonderful collection of his essays, courtesy of your paper and your editorial encouragement.
Our parents thought you were won-derful. Thanks for all you did for them. Your memorial gift will go to the Larkin Harrington Scholarship Fund at St. Thomas.
I'm sure Mom and Dad are now squabbling over his phrasing in his article.

I'm sending my column early because I am taking two of my daughters and one son in law and my friend to Orange City, Iowa, to the Tulip Festival. I will also show them the college I attended in that town (and a special renovation of the first building on campus built in the late 1800's), plus where I was born in Sioux Center, and the school in Maurice where I attended grade school and high school. It should be an exciting weekend.

The residents of Scott and Carver Counties know that hunger is an every day event for many of our neighbors. We are gratified by the ongoing support of our communities. On behalf of the CAP Agency, I want to thank the Boy Scouts, Cub Scouts, Girl Scouts, and Postal Workers for their recent food drives in support of the CAP Agency Food Shelf.
The combined drives raised nearly 25,000 pounds of food to help support the local community. This food will help pro-vide a week's worth of groceries to approximately 45 Scott and Carver families each day at the CAP Agency Food Shelf.
Also, I want to acknowledge the members of the community who donated food to make this possible. Thank you for your support of the scouts, postal workers, the CAP Agency, and, most of all, the families that rely on the Food Shelf to put food on their tables.

Hi, Mom. We moved the baby chickens to the barn (the coup), and Addie has so much fun checking on the chickens we can't get her out of there. She picks them up and puts them by the food or water and says, "Eat!"
I heard her say to them, "I had noonas. Now you eat!" (Noonas is noodles. We had spaghetti tonight.)
When Christopher got home he asked Addie, "How are the chickens?" She said, "One died." I couldn't believe she re-membered. I wonder if she understands a little bit or if she's just repeating what I told her.
Both kids are sleeping now for the night. Time for us to go to bed too.
