Sloe-eyed Mjble Townaend .picks blackberrie* from wild buihe» on her (ather'i mountainside farm near Boone. The pleaaaot 11-year-old gathered the fruit for a stranger who waa visiting her parents.—John Corey photo. Says Mountain Folk Generous By JOHN COREY Mountaineer! are probably the least commercial-minded pepole in the country. Visit a mountain farm during the summer. If you don't carry on too much like an urban big-shot, chance* are good the farmer will like you and offer you some ap ples, blackberries, cabbage, fresh corn, or may be, a bouquet of wild flowers. The generosity often includes his wife and children helping in picking the fruits and vegetables, and even carrying them to your car. No strings are attached. It's just the mountainman's way of being neighborly. He'll frown on your trying to pay for the booty. Should you succeed in clasping a dollar bill in his young, bashful daughter's hand, he thinks you're overly generous. Yet five dollars worth of pro duce given you could be in the ear. Kew mountaineers are monetari ly rich. But they do possess hordes of wealth in spirit of giving and sharing, even with strangers, what they do have.
