USE OF MEDICINES It is of first importance to keep all medicines labeled and ‘o have a definite place for stor¬ ing them. Never take or give any medicines in the dark or without reading the label care- ■fully. Keep containers marked poison away from the medicine •mbinet and where children can¬ not reach them. Half the misery of the world comes of want of courage to speak and to hear the truth plainly, and in a spirit of love. H. B. Stowe.

Comments from the SIDELINES By ELBERT FORESTER At this writing, there are only 349 more shopping days until Christmas—Shop early.- Which reminds me, by the way. . .Received some mighty fine and nice Christmas presents. Among these were some neckties and believe it or not, I’m actually wearing them. The ties this season, it seems are more or less “conservative” ; that is, more so than usual. The reason for this, I reckon, kind of goes along with the story of the man who told his neighbor to come over and get some “roasting ears” from his cornfield. The neighbor informed his friend that the roasting ears were too “hard” and in reply the generous giver said “h—, get hard” with ’em. The same is true about “loud” neckties, we men have just decided to get “loud” with ’em. But speaking of Christmas presents, Just about the time we had cleaned out all the paper, boxes, seals, strings, cards, etc., and the children had practically torn up all Santa had brought them, the writer received a big box from Honolulu. You can just imagine my excitement and eagerness to see “what in the world” would be coming to me from such a “fer away” place. No, your guess, just like mine, is wrong. It was a grass skirt, complete with the two “scant” pieces that go with such a “gar¬ ment.” Of course, the whole household was all up in the air. . . .until the question of “modeling’ the outfit came up. Myra looked upon the idea with nothing but scorn and her answer was a flat "NO,” and that was that. The kids were anxious to “try it out” but all were too small. All were then focused on me and I had to put up or shut up. Well, by doggies, I never liked to back up unless I had to, and I didn’t in this case. Frankly, the arrangement didn’t look so to me until I looked in the mir¬ ror. My “lines” “detours” and shapes were simply terrible. The “Fluffy” thing to be worn around the neck was the only piece of the outfit that fit. The skirt looked fairly well “from behind,” but the front view was awful. The other piece which resembled a Halloween mask, (it wasn’t a mask, however), didn’t come even in the neighborhood of fitting. . .' .this fit was worse than awful. . Have been trying to “think” of someone who would be suited for the modeling. For instance, how would Tom Fulghum do? Then, there’s Mutt Massey, Tom Ren- froe. Early Ellis, Raymond Mor¬ rison. A. L. Dyer and others, but I doubt seriously if they would get a better fit than I, so guess I’ll skip the modeling business and keep my highly treasured "Suit” until such time the occas¬ ion demands that I wear it. . . . regardless of how it looks, or what pieces don’t fit. . .ah shucks. Remember in wTiting that letter.....its 1948 now. not 1947. This column expects great things to come to our County during the New Year. Things we have all been working toward for a long, long time. (Shop apprentice note bring your skirt up here some time I hTive one too. The only thing I don’t have the trimmings with mine. Of course I wouldn’t expect to mofpV) tViof nf vrmre Y FOR SHERIFF To the Voters of Dade County: At the request of many of my iriends throughout the county, I am offering myself as a can¬ didate for the office of Sheriff of Dade County, subject to the regulations of the Democratic Primary when held.
