Well, well, we were just think¬

the news, information,and pleasant
past time one can get from one
edition of a Sunday paper, similar
to the Atlanta Journal. Something
there to suit the taste of most any¬
one. But when vve were a boy we
bad to take down Grier’s Almanac
and read about Cheney’s Expector¬
ant or Smith’s Worm Oil. And
most of the paintings we saw were
on the sides of old barns and
bridges and were such as Chas. H.
Fletcher’s Castoria,“Babies cry for
it.” We thought tnut fine and
made us think it was not far to
town. We had no telephone and
when we wished to scatted news
we had to tell some old woman in
the settlement. And to hear much
news we had to wait till camp

this tiling a radio and we like the
thing mighty well but would like
to have one that would take back
such as we didn’t want, but you
must listen to its doctoring whether
you believe or not, and you can’t
talkback. We think the women
will have that adjusted. Beg your
pardon ladies vve didn’t mean you
