Dan Grants Visit
Gen., Mrs. Hodges
i Gen. Courtney H. Hodges, re
i tired, is “mainly enjoying his
, retirement” in his beautiful new
: home near San Antonio, Texas,
he told Mr. and Mrs. Dan Grant
of Perry who visited General
and Mrs. Hodges on a recent trip
into the Southwest.
The General has been called
into consultation several times by
i the Defense Department and giv
en other brief assignments, such
as his recent investigation of the
Lackland Air Base facilities, but
these have not taken him away
from his new home for any long
period.
While Mr. and Mrs. Grant were
on their trip, their daughter,
Mimi, stayed with her grand
mother in Bostwick, Ga.

SLAP-
Inhabited by Indians, Too
Seems this kid was a great base
ball fan. Ate, slept and talked the
sport, even in school. This day at
school, the class was all wrapped
up in geography; all wrapped up,
that is, except for this one guy. His
thoughts had taken him out to the
old ball game.
"Bobby," the teacher asked,
breaking in on his meditation,
"where’s Cleveland?”
"Cleveland’s in New York to
day,” came the prompt answer,
“and Bob Feller’s pitching!”
LONG TIME NO SEE
Aren’t you the waitress who took
my order?” t
“Yes I am.”
"How did you enjoy your vaca
tion?”
Needs Transfusion
Two friends met on Main Street.
"Hello," said the first, "you look
nice and tanned. Just get back
from Florida?”
“Yes,” answered the other, “and
did we have a great time! For
forty dollars a day we stayed at
the Roney Plasma.”
“You mean Roney Plaza. Plas
ma is blood.”
“Well,” countered the first, “is
forty dollars a day barley water?”
How Have the Mighty Fallen?
The lady was sincerely interest
ed in the many activities of her
husband. “How come,” she asked,
"there’s no lodge meeting to
night?”
"It had to be postponed,” her
husband explained. "The Grand,
All-Powerful Invincible Supreme
Omnipotent Sovereign got beaten
up by his wife.”
Thanks Doc!
“I just dropped in, Doctor, to tell
you how much I’ve benefited from
your treatments.”
"But you’re no patient of mine.”
“No, but my uncle was, and I’m
his heir.”

BIGGEST LIE
A Boston minister once noticed
a crowd of urchins clustered
around a dog of doubtful pedigree.
“What are you doing, my little
men?” he asked, with fatherly in
terest.
“Swappin’ lies,” volunteered one
of the boys. “The feller that tells
the biggest one gets the purp."
“Shocking!" exclaimed the min
ister. “Why, when I was your age
I never thought of telling an un
truth."
“Youse win,” chorused the ur
chins “The dog’s yours, mister.”
NOISY WELCOME
Funeral services were being
conducted for a woman who
had been thoroughly disliked in
her rural community. With a
violent explosive disposition she
henpeckd her husband, drove
her children mercilessly and
quarreled with her neighbors.
Even the animals on her place
wore a bunted look.
The day was sultry and as the
service ended the storm broke
furiously. There was a blinding
flash followed by a terrific clap
of thunder.
"Waal, she’s GOT there” a
mourner said.
Pirates Rise
To 2nd Place
In League
Perry’s Pirates, in second place
in the Tri-County league by vir
tue of three straight victories last
week, will play Hawkinsville at
Hickson Field here (Thursday)
tonight.
On Wednesday, July 4, the Pi
rates defeated Montezuma there,
6 to 4, behind the effective seven
hit pitching of Jack Spickard.
Thursday night at the Hickson
Field Bobby Cannon of Hayne
ville hurled the local Pirates to a
8 to 4 decision over the Ft. Val
ley Ramblers. Bobby had to
overcome wildness in the first
two innings 'before closing the
door on the Ramblers the last
seven innings.
This game was also marked by
the first home run of the year for
Ed Thompson who in the first
inning as lead off man poled the
first pitch over the center field
fence.
Jack Spickard, a soldier who is
stationed at Robins Field and
lives in the Tucker Apts., con
tinued his fine work for the Pi
rates Sunday afternoon.
He was the winning hurler as
the Pirates defeated the Lilly
team at Lilly. This defeat drop
ped Lilly to third place and Per
ry eased in to 2nd. behind the
league leading Unadilla Wild
cats.
Lory Gunter with a single and
long home run and Walter Gray
with a triple and single were
leading batsmen for Perry.
Line Scores:
Pirates: 102 000 300—6 11 3
Montezuma: 002 000 020—4 7 3
Spickard, Hardy: Matthews, Bag
gett.
Pirates: 101 003 03X—8 12 3

Probably the safest and best
combination at the present time
for the control of garden diseases
