OBSERVATIONS
By Rambler.
Someone has said that we would
get no settled weather until after
Easter,” said a shivering man on the
street Friday. “ Time passes fast
enough, God knows, but I’d like to
see time pass fast enough now and
hurry up Easter so we can get some
warm weather.”
# “Pittsboro has been fortunate in
fires, sickness and other calamities,”
remarked a citizen Monday. “But that
explosion at Nooe’s plant Thursday
vras something awful. My wife
thought it was an earthquake shock
fr om the wav the house rocked and
dishes rattled. It is a thousand won
ders that the damage done was no
worse than it was.”
“I see they will have to move your
house,” said one of our citizens to

home, you know it is built out of
goods boxes and tin cans, but deys
gwme to build me a new one.” “Well,”
said the citizen, “You won’t be able
to sleep any when so many cars run l
by your house.” “I know dat,” she
replied, but dey’s gwine to conser
crete it and it won’t bother me much.”
“How long do you suppose the
new cement bridge over Robeson
creek will stand?” asked an observer
of things. “They have built the bridge
oyer one creek and now they are dig
ging a canal from Roberson creek to
the other above the bridge. There is i
a lot of water coming down both
rreeks in rainy weather and when as
heavy a freshet comes along as I have
seen it is going to either take the
bridge away or else it will wash out
the fill where Roberson Creek did
run. It looks like a foolish piece of
business. But then somebody has got
to have a state job and it had as
well be at the creek as anywhere.”
