“I got tired of living the life of Riley and signed

From the Lincoln Times, Lln

that the average citizen of Lincoln
County pays any attention to his,
or her. physical well-being Is when
Illness or accident puts them In

This Is, unfortunately, the truth
In regard to most persons. It Is a
reflection upon the intelligence
that men and women are sup
posed to have.
The neglect of the body Is only
comparable to our negligence In
regard to mental powers. Every
individual has abundant opportun
ity to Improve Intellectually.
When it comes to the realm of
spiritual Improvement, the aver
age individual goes into complete
eclipse, except in extremely rare
and trying moments. Those of us
who believe in the possession of a
soul know full well that our spirit
ual growth Is possible and most
of us believe that it is the great
function of human existence.
In spite of this belief and the
faith that moves us along life’s
highway, we carelessly drift along
without bothering very much
about principles or the lack of
them. Few of us attempt to guide
our daily lives by the eternal
varieties that we profesa to ac

From the Webster Times, Web

i ularly when nothing seems able
1 to arouse the taste buds—people
idly wonder why science doesn’t
come up with a little pill contain
ing all the dietary requirements

we’d have had breakfast, lunch,

In this era of startling scientific
' developments it is possible that
such a pill could be produced. But
it’s an odds-on-bet that it would
have a small sale—and its use
; would be generally restricted to
explorers and others faced with
serious logistics problems.
For Instance, this marvelous
little pill might contain all the pro
teins. vitamins and minerals found
in a well-broiled steak or a roast
oozing with juices.
The answer, if some “pollsters'*
should look into this, would prob

Engineers Begin
Ocmulgee River
Hearing Project
The U. S. Army Corps of Engin
i eers be?an a clearing and snagging
! project Monday on the Ocmulgee
i River in the lower end of Ben Hill
county, U. S. Rep. E. L. Forrester,
Third District Congressman, an
nounced. The work will extend
about 135 miles up the river and
lis expected to last five or six
j months.
The Corps’ equipment, includ
ing a crane barge and a tender,
arrived at the project site Satur
day after a trip from Savannah
down the Intracoastal Waterway
. to the Altamaha Sound near Dar
ien and then up the Altamaha Riv
er to the Ocmulgee.
With the benefit of unusually
high water, the trip was made on
schedule and without the necessity
of extensive snagging en route, ac
cording to Herbert B. Craven S»,
master of the barge. Craven is in
charge of a crew of five men who
are working on the project.
The work began at State High
way 31 Bridge in the lower part of
Ben Hill county near Fitzgerald,
Georgia, and will extend up the
river to the upper part of Houston
county. The crew will work up the
channel on high water and make
the return trip on low water, re
moving any remaining snags or
other obstructions in the project
area.
U. S. Rep. E. L. Forrester, Third
District congressman, was instru
mental in obtaining $42,000 in con
gressional funds for the project
that is expected to last five to six
months.
Doctor: “How is the boy who,
swallowed the 50-cent piece?” 1
Nurse: “No change yet.”
WANTAM
LOCAL
BUSINESS
I
Attendance of sporting events
dropped 25 per cent. Telephone
orders declined from 30 to 50 per
cent.
The business of travel agencies
was off as much as 40 per cent.
Stores were paying over SSOO to
place two signs in a subway car
for one day.
Restaurants were printing their
own news sheets.
An automobile dealer lost 70
per cent of his business.
The number of workers placed
by an employment agency decreas
ed 75 per cent.
These things happened within a
period of two weeks. They were
not the result of an H-bomb explo
sion. They were some of the re
sults of a strike which closed the
newspapers of New York City dur
ing the Christmas season.
The Graduate School of Journ
alism of Columbia University, in
vestigating the results of the
strike, reported that every type of
busniess in the great city had been
affected.
Even the small speciality shops
which did not advertise in the
newspapers suffered, according to
an official of the Retail Merchants
Association. He pointed out that
speciality shops depend upon the
advertising of larger stores to
bring customers to their vicinity.
Os course New York is not a
typical community. The effects of
a newspaper shutdown become ap
parent more rapidly in such a
large city. Similar effects would
be felt more slowly in a smaller
city—but, for sure, they would be
felt. Because, regardless of the
size of a shopping center, modern
retail trade is built around the lo
cal newspaper.

SHORT STORY
No Flowers
For Josephine
BY COOPER ETHERIDGE
The time was the time of the
great depression. The boy was in
college, and fraternity dances,
girls, football games, girls, frater
nity pins and girls were terribly
important.
I He had stars in his eyes, but he
had nothing in his pockets,
i The big fraternity dance series
was coming up this weekend, and
he had used up his allowance for
, the next few weeks, borrowed all
- he could from his blood brother,
fraternity brothers, and everybo
dy’s brother who had any cash in
the depression-ridden student bo
dy.
“I got the tickets paid for an I
can borrow my cousin’s tux,” he
kept telling everybody, “but I
haven’t got the $2.50 it’ll take to
buy my girl a corsage for the big
formal Thursday night.”
The friends listened, but they
had money problems, too, some of
them more serious than our poor
hero’s.
He finally made the decision.
He invited Josephine to the OTH
ER dances, the ones that were not
formal and no corsages were need
ed. And he felt like the heel he
was, but he was broke.
He went to the big formal alone
and danced will all the pretty girls
but he kept thinking about that
lousy $2.50 corsage he couldn’t af
ford. He kept thinking about his
girl sitting at home and he was
here in all this collegiate gaiety,
; where boys and girls lose them
■ selves in the romance of crazy
i music, cute sayings and antics on
-1 ly the young enjoy. All because he
■ couldn't get up that lousy $2.50
; for the corsage.
i The music, he thought, is not as
. good as it usually is, the cute say
ings are not as cute as usual and
some of these kids just act plum
silly. The tux didn’t fit well, eith
er, and he thought a thousand
times that he shouldn’t have even
. come to the dance himself.
The next night, when he went
to get Josephine, he felt sort of
sneaky. He half expected her to
t tell him what a cheapskate he
was, and how her girl friends had
a big time at the formal the night
before while she sat at home lis
tening to records.
After he rang the doorbell, he
had a sudden impulse to run and
i become a hermit or join the for
l eign legion or something—he felt
that low.
i But her mother came to the door
i and invited him into the living
room to wait for Josephine.
“This is just a stall,” he thought.
“She going to come downstairs in
a minute and tell me what a heel
I am.”
But he quickly forsook that
kind of thinking when the pretty
young girl came down the stairs
and came into the room with that
smile that made a fellow’s eyes
get misty, his ears turn red and
little tingles run up and down his
back.
She came over to him, took his
hand in hers and said simply:
“Ready?”
