By ANDREW HARRELL The month of May has come and gone, but with it has come winter, spring and summer (a short year, huh?) love, mockery and inspira tion; to these add past, present and future and a lifetime has been lived—for me to try to cover just a few of these many events will be unjust but why not a try? Out of this changeable month many good fish stories have been made and more are in the making. If only some of the poor starving peoples of Europe and Asia had some of the big ones which got away or the small ones thrown back, the food situation would be solved. However, the ones actually landed by this writer, and many others I have seen in action, have done little to help the meat short age at home. Have you asked your turn for a try of luck at Lake. Sapphire? There are lots of nice bream and bass waiting to spar with you. Fritz Waldrop has added the finishing touches and moved into his new bungalow. We haven’t been to the house-warming yet but are looking forward to barbecued ham and drinks on the house in the near future. Hunley Mehaffey and bride are now making their home at the Hinton Lodge in Brevard after a nice sojourn at Daytona Beach, Fla. Vacations certainly fly past in a hurry when honeymooning on those moonlit Florida beaches, eh, Hunley? Charles Aiken reports a nice vacation spent in the eastern part of the state. We haven’t had a full report as yet so any highlights will come later. Fred Floyd is now mailing invi tations to all his friends to attend his graduating exercises. He is graduating from correspondence school and will meet all at the Hendersonville post office Monday, June 2, at 9:00 a. m. He adds, don’t forget the presents. To you flower lovers, here is a tip. If you are unable to grow your own, Jim Morrow grows them by the acre. Most people love the aromatic scent or the beautiful colors. Jim loves the dollars and cents for he’s a wholesaler. To anyone who read my garden ing jest of last month, I offer my j Fme Papier News ' ' • ■" - ' ■ By RACHEL HAMLIN and ^ MITCHELL TAYLOR A great deal of the news that’s been going around in Fiiie i*aper the last few days is fishy. It is hard to decide who has the big gest fish tale. Goode Loftis started off the season with a bang, by catching twelve rainbow trou.t on his first day of fishing. From all informa tion we hear, Walter Johnson didn’t wait many days before he came’ in with his limit of rain bow. '' We’ye decided that there must be more or that Fine Paper must like rainbow trout because from right and left you hear such talk as, “Boy, you should have seen that twelve inch rainbow I hauled in yesterday.” We’ve list ened to such remarks until we had to go try for ourselves. Our fish tale is that someone must have fished out the holes before we got there, or we’re positive we could be telling you about our twelve or fourteen inch fish now. One thing that usually goes with fishing which we dida’t fall down on—yes, you guessed it—^we got wet! Last month everyone was in the mood for spring; house clean ing and gardening but with the fishing season comes the mood to play hooky from all work and go vacationing. J. L. Nicholson had his vacation the last week of April and the first week of May. You should see his tan and the fish he caught. J. L. said that he did a little farming in between times. That might be a good idea for a lot of other vacationers. When you get tired of fishing, swimming, hiking, reading and lying in the sun, you might try hoeing a row or two of corn for relaxation. We had two vacationers the sincere apologies. Rather than plant now for an early fall gar den, wait till fall to plant and have a garden. These spring freezes and heavy frosts are hard on tender vegetation. “Will you marry me?” “No.” And so they lived happily ever after. FEUOW SAVi A AAATCH IM THE I WILL mouth DO rr. ■WEY GO MIGHTY WELL WITH THOSE Know Your 5,07 -' Reporters RACHEL HAMLIN MITCH TAYLOR and RA CHEL HAMLIN — Last month wc( presejited one of our oldest reporters on THE ECHO staff— Emmett Clark—and this month we are introducing two of our newest, Mitchell Taylor and Ra- chel Hamlin from the Fine Paper Division. Their first column ap peared in last month’s ECHO and was a breezy, well-written column. We are looking forward to many more fine columns from this capable pair. week of May 12, Eric Neumann and Tulen Israel. The most envied person in our department at this time is Evelyn Taylor who left May 17 for Seattle, Washington and other parts of the state for her vacation. We hope Evelyn has a grand time on her trip but we will miss her, so wc hope she will not stay long. Fine Paper is well represented on Champagne’s Inter-departmental baseball team. Seven of our boys —^“Mitch” Taylor, Pete Dockens, James Avery, Charlie Clayton, Grady Wilkie, Harold Misenheimer, and Roy Carter are doing some fine playing. The boys elecftpd Walter Straus manager and Grady Wilkie assistant manager for the team. We are betting on you, fel lows, so make good. Closing time again, ’til next month. A sign in a western town reads; “4,076 people died last year of gas in this state. 29 inhaled it; 47 put a lighted match to it; and 4,000 stepped on it.”
