GEORGIA The National Carbon Man Chokes Up a Bit My attention has Just been called to an item appearing in the current issue of Tlie Rockdale Record con cerning my return to your fair city. When I first read your statement that “For a number of years Mr. Huff has been living in Atlanta, where he accumulated a wife and family and a dozen or so mustache," I laughed and thought it written in fun. As I read on, however, and saw that you were actually trying to compare my luxurious growth (of .bristling mus tache with that little patch of downy fuzz that you were nurturing when 1 was a kid in Sunday school, I be came convinced that you were in ear nest. Since you are still a young man, in fact if not in fiction, I just couldn’t believe that your eyesight was affect ed to such a degree. Still there had to he some cause for this wide dis crepancy between actual and reported facts. 1 set out to locate this cause, and have succeeded. I have been informed hy mutual friends that since you first began chasing elusive golf balls around the Riverside Golf course you have been gradually losing your ability to add the simplest sums, or to even estimate figures or quantities in anything like an accurate manner. My advice would he for you to give up the game before it is too late, because selling tickets re quires tire changing of money and the ability to accurately compute rates and weights is essential for the proper handling of shipping. Another thing that puzzled me was the fact that Mercer Wallis rated front page space while the best that I could make was page five. However, I have since been informed that tills was because of the fact that there are eight members in his family and only five in mine. Conyers, like the rest of the world, is quick to recognize and pay homage to the successful man. In behalf of myself and family I thank the Record and the good people of Conyers for the warm welcome that has heeu accorded us. We hope that we may prove ourselves worthy of your love and esteem. Sincerely yours, LEWIS C. HUFF. NOTE: Mr. Huff back fires some what like our Ford used to when it had too much carbon. —Ed.
