(by Bo McLeod)
What’s the use of reading
folks’ jokes, if you can’t copy
them once in a while ?:
The guy who travels fast
est alone is on his way to pick
up his girl.
Don’t get caught in your
own mouth trap.
Uncle Homer calls fishing
a 'jerk at one end of the line
waiting for a jerk at the other
end.
Far too many people these
days run through the Ten
Commandments to see if they
have missed any.
Nothing is what more peo
ple do than anything.
And did you-all know:
People are taller lying
down; Dice were used in 3,-
000 8.C.; Farming is more
dangerous than factory work;
of all U.S. adults
wear glasses.
You did? You knew all that
aw’ready? Liar!
Betcha: some farmer’ll be
overdrawn at the soil bank.

Appreciation Day
Drawings End; To
Close July 4 and 5
The Appreciation day draw
ings of Saturday afternoons
of the past have been discon
tinued, according to an an
nouncement made today by
Sol Guterman, president of
the merchant’s association
which sponsored the event.
Guterman said the action
was taken at a meeting of the
group, and he said that local
citizens who have unredeemed
“money” won in the drawings
should use it at once, “within
the next two weeks,” or it will
be no good.
Several reasons were offer
ed as to why the event was
canceled, perhaps the number
one cause being the lack of
more support from more mer
chants. This kept the “jack
pot” lbw and therefore not e
nough interest was shown by
the public to make the operas
tion of the program practical.
In other action taken by
the merchants, it was agreed
that Donalsonville stores will
be closed all day on July 4
and 5, in observance of the
Fourth of July holiday. This
two-day closing was set be
cause the 4th is on Wednes
day, and since the stores close
at noon on Thursdays, the
merchants felt the half-day
they would be able to be open
on Thursday would be imprac
tical. „ .
