WILMA BRIDGES WITH LADY ECHO AND MISSEY
By Jerry McLaurin
Lady Echo and daughter.
Handshaker’s Missey, are
owned and cared for by
Wilma and Ivey Bridges of
Butts County, who got the
two Tennessee walkers from
R. E. Avery of Zebulon.
Of the two, the younger
Missey (four years old) is the
more spirited. She makes it
just about impossible to keep
a halter on her. Wilma or one
of her daughters, Cindy or
Candy, are constantly kept
searching through the fields
and woods on the Weaver’s
I NEWS from youf i
Many persons are troubled
with back ailments which
could have been prevented
had they practiced care in
lifting heavy objects. You
should evaluate the object to
be lifted, and get help if the
load appears to be too heavy
for you. Don’t overtax your
back - this can result in
sprains, strains, torn liga
ments or more serious
trouble.
If you do lift an object,
stoop down and keep your
back straight, pushing up
wards from the floor with
your legs. They will do the
work without straining your
back. Remember to lift
gradually and don’t twist
your body. Keep the load
close to the body to avoid
additional strain on the back,
and you can avoid injury.
However, the best advice is
to get someone to help lift
even light loads. Save your
back.
If you do suffer from back
trouble, you will find a
complete line of medical aids
at our pharmacy to help
relieve the pain.

farm (where the horses are
stabled) for her halter.
A ham at heart, Missey
keeps folks, as well as her
self, well entertained. Not
long ago, Wilma was pre
paring both Missey and Echo
for riding, or at least trying
to prepare them. Getting
them out of the stable and
into the corral was no
problem; it was when she
tried to get the two of them
from the corral that Missey
decided to have some fun.
Having coaxed Missey out of
the corral, Wilma returned to
fetch Echo. Once she was
inside, Missey closed the
gate behind her. A little
tickled, Wilma stopped and
returned to open the gate.
Having done so she returned
in pursuit of Echo and Missey
proceeded to close the gate
again.
This closing and opening of
the gate continued until
Wilma’s sense of humor grew
thin and she took measures to
insure that the fun-loving
Missey was anchored far
from the corral gate.
As might be expected
Missey loves attention. One
thing that she can’t stand is
to sit and watch another
horse get it all. She gets very
upset when Wilma takes
Lady Echo and leaves her
behind.

Lady Echo is ten years old
and is naturally a little less
spirited than her daughter
Missey. Echo is gentle and
loving and an excellent
riding horse for Cindy and
Candy.
All in all the two of them
make a very complimentary
pair and offer the Bridges
family a pleasant diversion
and in Missey’s case, a lot of
surprises.
All members of the Bridges
family are horseback riding
enthusiasts and members of
the Ocmulgee Saddle Club.

TO NANDINA
You’re a shrub of primary limbs
equal in value.
And on each stem are shoots
that bear a host
of pointed leaves!
Interspersed with them
are clusters pear-shaped,
With very deep red berries
that shine with light
in morning’s breeze!
But now, your gorgeous berries
have long since gone,
And lovely bright green leaves
throughout the year
will linger on!
