Around The Grange
A Story About Nobody
 

By Edith Schoell, CT State Grange Secretary

  APRIL 4, 2013 --

This is the season when we become anxious for a change in the weather, the one thing we have no say in what comes our way.

Also, it is the season when we plan for Grange month and many other activities slated for better temperatures.  The following is a story that has been around for decades, but is appropriate for all of our members.

This a story about four people named Everybody, Somebody, Anybody, and Nobody.

There was an important job to do and Everybody was sure Somebody would do it.  Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did it.

Somebody got angry about that because it was Everybody’s job.  Everybody thought Anybody could do it, but Nobody realized that Everybody wouldn’t do it.

It ended up that Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have.
