Joy dawned again on Easter
Day,
The sun shone out with fairer
ray,
When, to their longing eyes
restored
The apostles saw their risen
Lord.
His risen flesh with radiance
glowed
His wounded hands and feet he
showed:
Those scars their silent witness
gave
That Christ was risen from the
grave.
O Jesus, King of gentleness,
Do thou our Inmost hearts
possess;
And we to thee will ever raise
The tribute or our grateful
praise.
All praise, O risen Lord, we give
To thee, who, died, again dost
live;
To God the Father equal praise,
And God the Holy Ghcxst, we
raise.
Amen.
Rev. John Mason Neale.

Hon. Harry S. Truman,
Key West, Florida
Supplementing my wire of
yesterday urging your approval
of H. J. Res. 398 the Cotton and
Peanut Acreage Allotment Bill,
call your attention to assur¬
ances given by Committee on
! Agriculture before farmers
voted on adoption of price sup-
1
port plan that inequities in pu-
blic law 2 72 would be elimin-
'
a t e d. Am especially interested
i n cotton acreage allotment and
know P. L. 272 has worked many
foreseen injustices to cotton
farmers due to frozen acreage
Even with H. J. Res. 398 in ef-
feet, Department of Agriculture
estimates less than 21 million
acres will be planted to cotton
in 1950 ’ Your failure to sign
' promptly H. J. Res. 398 will
force hordes of tenants from
larger farms without chance of
other employment. The situa-
tion is serious,

Along Our Highways
The State Highwcy Patrol was
* n Dade County Saturday after¬
noon and evening and Sunday
evening. No highway violation
were turned in to the Or¬
dinary. This is rather remark¬
able in that this was also the
time that the new 1950 tags had
I to be on our cars.
We had at least two highway
accidents last week. One jeep
turned over several times in
Rising Fawn. It is reported the
driver was under the influence
of liquor. No one hurt.
The other accident was on
that bad stretch of road south
of Trenton, our Visiting Tea¬
cher, Mrs. Gardner’s car slipped,
.skidded and ended-in the ditch,
badly damaged. Mrs. Gardner,
fortunately, was only bruised
and shaken,
j How do we expect to improve
our communities when we keep
dumping tin cans and other.
-trash along the banks of our
highways?

April 2, 1950. The service was
opened by two solos, “Because”
and “I Love You Truly,” sung
and played by two friends of
Mary Beth at Interstate Ins.,
Co. Then to the strains of
“Here Comes The Bride,” Prince
Kendall best man and the groom
entered the room, where about
30 friends and relatives were

Willow Dean Tepleton and lastly
the bride looking lovely in a
light blue spring suit, with navy
accessories and carrying a white

ful white Orchid and white rib¬
bon streamers. Rev. Harris read
the very impressive double ring
ceremony concluded by a solemn
prayer that the young couple
might always be happy and true
to their vows in their new re¬
lationship. After the ceremony,
pictures were taken and all the
friends and relatives repaired to
the heme of Mr. and Mrs. Harry
Shipley, the groom’s parents,
where awaited a big wedding
cake to be cut by the bride and
afterward served to all guests
with delicious punch. More
pictures were taken at the re¬
ception after which we all left
wishing the happy couple a long
and happy matrimonial journey.
The young people will reside
at 2202 Vance Ave., Chattanooga
and will be glad for all their
friends and relatives to call.

'Curfew Shall Not
Ring Tonight"
Our ten o’clock curfew lasted for
50 years, but the town council voted
it out. I dropped in at the meeting
in Town Hall last week just in time
to hear Smiley Roberts.
“The curfew is old-fashioned,”
says Smiley. “We ought to be
grown-up enough by now to behave
like grownups. Seeing to it that
our kids get to bed is the responsi¬
bility of each family.” Then Judge
Cunningham adds, “Most of us
are in bed when the curfew horn
blows anyway. It wakes me up just
when I’m getting to sleep!”

for a laugh, but Smiley juet about
summed up how folks think in this
town. We believe that the demo¬
cratic tradition of “live and let
live” is the only way to live.
From where I sit, it’s not the
American way to regulate your life
by a horn— anymore than it’s right
to criticize my caring for a temper¬
ate glass of beer now and then.
Think what you wish, say what you
wish, but don’t ask your neighbor
