Wildwood Letter
Well Folks;
The end of the long
has come. Today the
are back in schoM, and the
parents are relaxing and
ing to the football games.
We had five of our boys
for Christmas, There was
lonely marine, Tack Turner,
from the Air Corps,
Wallen and Joe Dantzler,
two from the Army, Frank
and Jerry Neely. We had
party for them at the
ity House on Christmas
We had a wonderful time.
J. W. and Thelma Frye
out to visit me Christmas
noon and they went to the
munity house with us.
really enjoyed visiting among
their old friends.
I believe Wildwood has a
er on cowboys. Eevery way
turn there’s two pistols
you in the eye.
We had a nice service
church Christmas Eve.
preacher and his wife presented
a program of Christmas songs
and scriptures.
Wednesday, Billy Mike, Ston-
ey and I went down to Atlanta.
We had a wonderful trip except
that the place was all covered
with ice. If you want to know
how to go down steps In a hurry
just stop by tihe store and get
the latest Information. I went
down Red’s back steps in noth¬
ing flat and lit in a puddle of
water. I’ll have you know It was
not one bit dignified.
Red and Eva have a television
set and I really enjoyed it. Beats
a picture show any day. I was
a very interested listener and
looker most of the time we were
there.
Now a new year has started.
You know I kinda hated to see
old 1950 leave. It had been a
pretty good year. But we must
all look to the future and put
our faith in God and pray
a brighter time when all our
boys will be home again.
I must stop and listen to the
football game. I think I just
missed something.
I wish you all a happy, pros¬
perous New Year.

A WISH FOR 1951
You may have had a glad old
year, A sad old year, a bad old
year; You may have had a mad
eld year all full of revolutions.
Whatever’s done can’t be un¬
done. But may the New Year,
just begun, contrive to conjure
back each one of your best res¬
olutions.
The Fine Art of Taking
A Semester Exam.
Arise early in the morning of
your exam (if you aren’t al¬
ready up cramming for the
exam) dash madly to the
door, breathe deeply 12 gulps
fresh air, (be careful if its rain¬
ing you might drown.) Then
you take 15 laps around the
ihouse ending at the
;door. For breakfast eat
and lettuce so that your
will be in good condition to read
the person’s paper next to you.
Dress in dark colors to look as
if you are in mourning. This ere-
ates a very good effect on your
teacher.
Oh My Goodness, its time for
the first exam! Brace yourself
Old Pal | This happens in the
best of families (exams of
course.) Run quickly to the
nearest apple tree and pick a
big apple arriving at the Torture
Chamber, (Oh I mean class.)
Speak to the teacher and tell
her how nice she looks. Smile
at all the class to get on the
good side of them; then pass
! ;quite "" noisily ...... TJ to “ZET the nearest va-
cant „ , chair. , _ . _ Draw forth , ,, your
pencil and jerk out a sheet of
paper! Place the pencil in your
hand if you can hold It while
shaking so badly. If you can’t
j hold it remove the left shoe and
sock and place the pencil be-
tween your two biggest toes.
At intervals during the test
dash madly to the water foun-
tain and apply cold water to
your temples using a handker-
chief. By the time the test is
over your head should be
thoroughly water soaked. If you
don’t pass this test using the
method given above something
ts definitely wrong with the
person sitting next to you!
THOUGHTS TO REMEMBER
j “Lost, yesterday, somewhere
between sunrise and sunset, two
golden minutes, each set with
sixty golden seconds. No reward
offered for they are gone for-
ever.”
| The greatest mistake you can
make in life is continually fear-
ing 3 0 U will make one.
The man who is too big for
the little job eventually finds
himself too little for the big job.
Gossip always seems to travel
faster over the sour grape vines.
Life is what man makes of it,
no matter of what it is
What this country needs is
more free speech worth listen¬
ing to.
It isn’t so much what a wo¬
man says that hurts;
Its the number of times she
says it.
It may not be a good idea to
count your chickens before they
are hatched, but it sure is a lot
of fun.
What the Doctor didn't Know
A local small fry had been
vaccinated, and after the oper¬
ation the dbetor prepared to
bandage the sore arm, but the
litt le boy objected.
“Put it on the other, Doctor.”
“Why no,” said the physician.
I want to put the bandage on
your sore arm so the boys at
school won’t hit it.
“Put it on the other arm.
Doc.” reiterated the small boy.
“You don’t know the boys at
our school.”
In 1700 it took 19 people work-
ing in the soil to produce food
for 20 so one could go to town.
Now. 1*2 to 2 can produce en-
ough for 10 . The city is a pro¬
duct of the agriculture ma-
i chines.
And if a tree be cut or burned,
earth, or nature is the work of
grow others in its stead.—“He
heweth him down cedars, and
taketh the cypress and the oak,
which he strengthened for
himself among the trees of the
forest; he planted an ash, and
the rain doth nourish it.” —
Isaiah 44:4,
