M. DOWDEY TRENTON, GA., FOR FREE ESTIMATES From where I sit... ly Joe Mardi "As Homelike As a Barn" Cy Hartman finally got his new barn painted, but plenty of folks had a hand in it. Whenever some¬ one got a free day, or a little extra time, they’d come over and help out with paint and brush. And Cy, to show his apprecia¬ tion, held a big “barn warming’' Saturday—for all the folks who’d helped him (but not barring those who couldn’t). Ma Hartman sup¬ plied sandwiches, and Cy rolled out a mellow keg of beer. You’d never think of a barn as “homelike.” But with those lanterns Copyrigh t. 1947, United States Brewert Foundation Let The Times Do Your Job Printing hanging from the rafters; make¬ shift tables spread heavy with food; and Ed Carey’s fiddle play¬ ing while the folks enjoyed their beer—Cy’s barn was sure a mighty hospitable-looking place! From where I sit, it’a just about as appropriate to have a barn warming as a housewarming . . . if only because it’s another chance to get neighbors together in a spirit of good fellowship.
