We note where some one who is a good booster has pulled of -oate unlimely stuff against our section and people, but we take it al hvith a smile as we sire so tender hearted and benevolent, that to have the Christ spirit we expect all this and our reI ward will come later, iet it be good or bad sr. -ayrth the Bible. Let's 1 cut such tulf as this out and bund : the whole county up and not pull aj single inch of it for selfish puCopland greed which follows after with al! that can be said and done we do not feel thai vx? haw been nipped In the bud, as time will tell all things i Catch our spirit and you will be grea| ter. i We have been having nice weather i at Deep Gap and the forests re tinJ I ted with lovely golden brown and purple colors which are a feast t? one's eyes. Mother Nature is o good after all and we hould look upward to the Great Creator ami render te Him thanks who looks over and cares for us. this is the pirit that goes wa> out and reaches heaven's court when we are tried by the evidence record ed by I he angel who is keeping t.ht Book of Life.
