BY COOPER ETHERIDGE
HIGH HEDGES: A reader sug
gets that the city ought to check
some of these corners where the
vision of drivers is cut off by
hedges and trees. One is at the
corner of Third Street and Smoak
Avenue which is particularly
tricky. The reader says he has
seen two boys on bikes almost
get hit there.
CONVENTION: We have drawn
a conclusion from the antics on
TV labeled the Democratic Con
vention. It is that we are an “im
polite nation.” We don’t think
that’s too harsh criticism after
watching the so-called delegates
to the convention walk about the
hall, read newspapers, chat and
otherwise conduct themselves in a
disorderly fashion while a man is
trying to speak to them about im
portant matters. The self-centered
ness of individuals (we suppose
this is what makes them act as
they do) is getting out of hand.
Only in church (and not always
there) can you expect people to
listen to a speaker. It prompts us
to ask why people go to meetings
if they do not expect to pay at
tention to what’s going on. We
say the conduct of the great ma
jority of Americans shows that we
have become “an impolite people.”
NEW HOSPITAL; Our new
Houston County Hospital is a
thing of beauty. It’s strictly first
class and a credit to the county.
It has 50 beds and on its fifth day
of operation it had 24 patients.
That’s almost 50 per cent of capa
city in the first five days. What
will occupancy be after five
months?
JUNGLE TALK: Police Chief J.
B. Hawkins shot an alligator down
near the Big Indian Creek bridge
last week, but he doesn’t believe
he killed him. He hit him with a
rifle shot but a Negro reported
seeing the gator two or three days
later. The alligator gets longer
with every telling of the story un
til it has now reached seven feet
in length. Chief Hawkins says five
feet would be about right. He says
they are not so dangerous unless
cornered, but he doesn’t suggest
tangling with one unless your
name is Ross Allen.
RUSSIAN TEA: They say that
Kruschev’s favorite tune is “Tea
for U 2.”
QUESTION asked of an editor
of a small paper like ours: “Why
don’t you have an ‘Advice to the
Lovelorn’ column, like ‘Dear Ab
bey’?” Answer: “None of our
readers have any such problems.”
Meeting is Held
By Altar Society
A business meeting of the Perry
Mission Altar Society was held
Tuesday night at the home of Mrs.
Martin Austin. There were 8 mem
bers present.
Regular meetings will be held
the second Tuesday of every
month.
Delicious refreshments were
served by the hostess.
Rinse water always should be
warm or cold, not hot, says Miss
Doris Oglesby, housing-equipment
specialist, Agricultural Extension
Service.
