AND THIS YEAR WE HAVE SO MUCH TO BE THANKFUL FORt The pilgrims were a Hardy group . . . landing on strange soil with little more than fortitude and courage to keep them alive. In the matter of ma terial possessions, they were poor . . . yet through hope, sheer determination and a profound belief in God, they celebrated their new-found security on the first Thanksgiving. More than three centuries later the dream of our Forefathers is still with us . . . and we, as Ameri cans, have cause to take stock of our blessings, too. We would like to join you this Thanksgiving in a prayer for the security of our United States, and the fervent hope that it will remain with us always. We would like to take this opportunity to express to you, Our Customers, many thanks for your loyal patronage and faith in us. wi viiiaiu vuven marascnino Cherries .

But I'd sure hate to be the poor mailman who may someday de liver the mail to my house. For a certainty, his feet will be flatter than last week's cigar ette smoke. My house '"Mortgage Manor" atop "Poverty Ridge") is the only one on my street, or to be more specific, the only one in the entire Henry sub-division. But did I get No. 1 when the Lions sold their house numbers this week? I did not! My house, believe it or not, is No. 117, which leads me around to feeling sorry for my future mailman and also to won dering what in the heck happen ed to my 116 neighbors. jpb If you're looking for a good laugh, find someone who took pic tures, still or movie, during last year's Centennial in Franklin. I'd all but forgotten what folks looked like until I came across the Perry brothers going through a raft of pictures that Pil Mc Collum snapped during the festiv ities. It woultl really be something if we could round up all the 8 mm and 16 mm movie film shot then and splice together some good short features. This might be good fund-raising scheme for some organization will ing to round it up and arrange for a showing. ir?K It's pretty common around here for folks to give each other a helping hand in time of need. I, personally, in my more than six years as a Macon lan, can cite any number of instances. These little gestures seldom become known, mostly through oversight, but to me they are very vital ingredients in the recipe that makes Macon County a good place in which to live. The latest acknowledgement comes from the Daily Journal Gazette. a newspaper published in Mattoon, 111. A gesture of friendship and understanding by a local couple rated more than just mention in this northern newspaper. It made the editorial page. Here It is: With the newspapers full of corruption stories, It's wonderful once in a while to hear of people who live by the Golden Rule. Such people are Mr. and Mrs. Mack Pranks, of Franklin, N. C. Ten days ago the Pranks dropped into j a restaurant in their home city for a cup of coffee. While they were there Charles Timmons, of Mattoon. a total stranger to them, dropped dead. At this point Mack Franks and his wife took over like lifelong friends. Many tele phone calls for train and plane reservations proved futile, so, with no consideration for themselves, the Pranks announced they would drive Mrs. Timmons and her small son to Knoxville, Tenn., where she could board a train. However, somewhere between Franklin and Knoxville, the Franks decided that they couldn't allow Mrs. Tim mons to travel alone for even a short distance, so they drove her on to Cincinnati where she was met by her brother-in-law, J^ck Timmons and Mr. and Mrs. Carl Lesh. The Franks attempted the 400 mile trip with no spare clothes, and only a toothbrush apiece as luggage. Mrs. Timmons feels that she can never repay these grand people. We think they will be re paid a thousand fold People who live like the Franks are bound to be happy people. jpb While were on the subject of gestures of kindness above and beyond, there's an incident that took place here Hallowe'en that Tates mention. Mrs. Jessie Nolen answered a knocking at the door of her Kast Franklin home Hallowe'en night. "Trick or treat!" yelled three goblins standing on her porch. Slightly embrassed. Mrs. Nolen explained to the goblins that she was a widow who lived alone and she had completely forgotten that it was Hallowe'en. "Then have some of ours," spoke out the goblins, extending bags full of goodies. jpb Someone asked me the other day if I planned to wax eloquent ly on women's hats as a follow up to Mrs. Siler's column of a couple of weeks back. The answer is yes. I currently am researching an article which I shall entitle: "Head Shelters I Have Seen . . . And Forgotten" jpb There are many things that can be done to relieve a cold. But, as things stand now, the untreated cold will last about seven days while, with very care ful treatment, it can be cured In a week. jpb THINK ABOUT IT? Most of the shadows of this life are caused by standing in your own sunshine.
