Selma Ingram accompanied Adella Katz, and Larry and Connie Jenkins, Oaklan and Tia to the birthday party of Ina Jenkins at 5:30 p.m. Saturday at the city building in Lehigh.
A 39 3/4 surprise birthday party in honor of Jan Hanschu, Hillsboro, was held Saturday at Hillsboro Golf Course Club House. Guests who gathered at 6:45 p.m. on the south side of the club house were Joe and Joan Nowak of Pilsen, Junior and Jeannetta Hanschu, Fred and Marguerite Utech, Jeff and Jennifer Braden and Joshua of Windom, Neil and Jolene Albrecht, Kallie and Morgan of Salina, and other relatives and friends. Jayson and Jan Hanschu were to leave their children at the club house while Jan thought she and Jayson were going somewhere to eat. She was really surprised to see the guests in attendance for the celebration. Jan's 40th birthday is Jan. 20, 2007. After supper, the guests and honoree visited and played cards. There were two cakes, each with photos of Jan. When Junior was asked how the secret was kept, he said that Jayson's invitation instructed guests to not call, e-mail, or talk about the party. "Remember this is a small world," the invitation read. After all, Jan does work in the office with her husband.

There is a lot of milo to be combined and cattle to get out of pastures. It's time to check antifreeze in the vehicles, tractors, and some boats. We've had two good, hard freezes. I pulled out the cradles for my tomatoes that froze.
