A southerner on vacation wanted to go ice fishing, so he stopped at the nearest pond of ice. He started cutting holes in the ice, and heard, "There are no fish under the ice." He got creeped out and started cutting another hole. Then he heard, "There are no fish under the ice." Then he asked, "Lord, is that you?" Then he heard, "No, this is the ice rink manager."

Q: I have inherited an old Singer sewing ma-chine and wonder if it is worth keeping. -- Betty, North Port, Fla.

A: There are millions of older Singer sew-ing machines tucked away in American homes. Because so many were made, they really aren't worth that much money as a collectible. Most of the treadle models that I've seen in antique shops and malls have been priced well below $200. For example, I spotted a Singer Model No. 15-30 from about 1910 for $175, a Singer Model 66 also from the same period for $195, and a Singer No. 27-4 in oak cabinet, $150. There are always exceptions to every rule.

Check out www.MySingerStory.com for his-torical facts about the older machines. It is also an interactive website that invites Singer fans from across the country to share their personal stories and memories of this iconic machine.

• • •Q: Is there anything you can tell me about a

vase that I have. I can't find any markings on it. I have always been curious about it and would especially like to know its value and how old it is. -- Carol, Willmer, Minn.

A: You have sent me a question that is impos-sible to answer. Even with the picture you sent, identifying the piece and determining its age would take a professional appraiser. I think your piece is probably from the 1950s or '60s, judg-ing by its design, but that is only a guess. Having it appraised might cost more than the piece is worth. With that in mind, you might show it to antique dealers in your area for their opinions.

PFC Walter M. Gaulke January 27, 1921 ~ November 8, 1944

Private First Class Walter Max Gaulke was born on January 27, 1921 to Mr. and Mrs. Robert Gaulke in Odessa. He Married Alice Salvogand and they had one daughter named Judy. He received his notice of draft on December 19, 1943, and left home on January 21, 1944, for Fort Snelling for induction into the United States Army. After his induction he left for 17 weeks of training at the Infantry Replacement Center at Camp Blanding, Florida. Walter completed his training as a rifleman, training with Company F, 190th Infantry. He was then shipped overseas and was fatally wounded in action on November 8, 1944. At the time of his death his company was operating in the vicinity of Lixieres, France, in the province of Lorraine. Walter was serving with Company C, 138th Infantry. He was buried in the United States Military Cemetery, Limey, France, located approximately 16 miles east of St. Mihiel and 15 miles north of Toul, France. At the time of his death Walter was survived by his wife Alice and daughter Judy; his mother Helena Gaulke, two brothers Leo Gaulke and family and Arnold Gaulke, who was assigned to the infantry, eight sisters: Alma (and Paul) Bartz and family, Lydia (and Martin) Schroeder and family, Esther (and Ervin) Bartz, Bertha (and Alfred) Schroeder and family, Clara (and Donald) Shepard and family, Lily (and Joe) Wrobleski and family, Evelyn ( and Harry) Schlieman and family and Renetta (and Norton Lindstrom and family.

• On Nov. 24, 1849, John Froelich, the inventor of the first internal-combustion tractor, is born in Girard, Iowa. Fro-elich and investors formed the Waterloo Gasoline Traction Engine Company.

• On Nov. 22, 1900, the first car to be produced under the Mercedes name is taken for its inaugural drive in Cannstatt, Germany. The car was specially built for Emil Jellinek, a fan of fast, flashy cars. He bought 36 of them. In exchange, the company agreed to name the car after Jellinek’s 11-year-old daughter, Mercedes.

• On Nov. 19, 1915, British airman Richard Bell Davies performs a daring rescue, swooping down in his plane to whisk a downed fellow pilot from behind the Turkish lines. The British government awarded him the Victoria Cross.

• On Nov. 21, 1934, teenager Ella Fitzgerald wins Amateur Night at Harlem’s Apollo Theater. Putting her name in the hat on a bet, she’d originally planned a dance number. His-tory was made when she changed her mind and sang “The Object of My Affection.”

• On Nov. 20, 1945, a series of trials of accused Nazi war criminals, conducted by a U.S., French and Soviet military tribunal based in Nuremberg, Germany, begins. Twenty-four former Nazi officials were tried, and half would be sentenced to death by hanging.
