It didn’t work as he was seen mowing the lawn
anyway.

"A'' SHIFT CASTING
By Robert Miller
It’s time to crawl out of the shade and write
the Echo news.
It seems that Bob Eason is the only one around
now with a fish tale to tell—even if all of his
big ones are coming out of Tannery Creek. By
the way, if any of you fishermen want to know
how to snare a native trout, see James Shook. If
he can’t catch them, he’ll snare them.
Anyone that missed the shooting exhibition at
Camp Straus on July 4 missed a wonderful per
formance.
The vacation season is still in full swing with
James Shook taking his family to Florida for a
week s fishing. Tom Cooper took his vacation at
home. There’s no place like home for a restful
vacation.
Last but not least, we would like to welcome
Gerry Michael McCall, the new son of Mr. and
Mrs. J. B. McCall. He arrived on June 2 at Tran
sylvania Community Hospital, tipping the scales
at 6 pounds and 12 ounces.
Budget your time carefully; it’s one thing you
cannot replace.
