ley. we lost an outstanding citi
zen. He was outstanding because
the way he made his way would
serve as an Ideal pattern tor any
young man to follow, xlonesty. was
his trademark.
He was. of course, honest n
his business dealings with his fel
low man. but he went further and
carrlcd this honesty in to all
phases of h's life.
In discussion of current prob
lems there was no sham or hypo
crisy ? no attempt to be on the
popular side of a question.
Because he loved people, he was
r
I
extremely generous, but only If It
could be done with no ostentatious
show.
His honesty demanded that his
work must be done and done
right regardless of the energy or
time spent. The lob. and not a
government regulated eight-hour
day, determined his working day.
If a few hours extra work this
evening would enable him to gst
on to another job tomorrow hs
worked on. not to make a record.
but because s I.lt it was t.u
thing to do.
Only in evaluating himself did
his honesty fail. He always un
dersold himself. This came from
true humility.
Aren't humility and honesty two
of the greatest traits ol character.' ,

Overheard in the De Soto v:
Trail Restaurant: "Women want '
to be dominated. I don't care
how much she may say other- 1
wise, a woman likes it best j
when the man's the boss."
? J
HOW OFTEN have you said to ,
yourself, as you looked over {
contest rules or some sign ,
which said, '.'Nothing to buy,
just enter your name" . . . well, t
how often have you remarked, J
"I've never won anything in my ?
life; what's the use."?
That's the way Mrs. Ed Jen- !
nings and her daughter, .Marie, i
of Cullasaja, felt. Notice that '
the word "feel" is in the past 1
tense, for Mrs. Jennings and 1
Marie have hit the winners'
category? not once, but three
times recently.
First, Marie won a $10 bill at
the Winn-Dixie Store. Then, she
won the door prize at the Cul
lasaja community meeting. Fin
ally, her mother won the home
freezer given away by Belk's.
?
TWO MEN met at a bar. "Say."
said the first, "what does your
wife say when you're out this
late?"
"Nothing," replied the other.
"I'm not married."
The first man pondered this
for a while and asked: "Then
why do you stay out as late as
this?"
?
A DOCTOR with an unusual
background applied last week
for a position on the staff at
Angei Hospital. He is Dr. Harry
Weber, originally from Washing
ton, D. C., a surgeon. Doctor
Weber said in his application that
for two years he has been the
personal physician of King Ibn
Saud, of Saudia, Arabia.
Anybody got any Arabian dis
eases? ?*-? >?*.????????
ALTHOUGH THE atom#
bomb is not b'ryond thfc con
versational range of the gents
who hang around the court
house, thosf men like best, I
think,- to talk of subjects such !
as one they w^ve holding forth (
on recently: "topth pulling in
the old. days.
"Why I can remember," said |
one, as he leaned forward to j
spit into the stove, ."the doc a
usin' lorge tongs to pull out my |
teeth. He got hold and we went 1
'round and 'round. Sometimes, j
he'd b.eak off one tooth satin'
another 'un out."
"Now I don't care what peo
ple tell you," said a second man,
with a testimonial, "but a lit
tle bit of whisky made a tooth
pullin' go easier. You could
stand the pain better. Of course,
if it was one what was likely
to hurt a little more, you took
just a little more medicine to
help you along."
?
HAVING COME up in the
days of novocaine, it was diffi
cult for me to believe the next
oldtimer's story but all swore
they'd seen the same or worse.
He told me of seeing men sit on
the patient's legs, arms, and
chest while the extraction took
place.
All this talk set my wisdom
teeth to aching so I left.
?
HAVE YOU noticed in movies
about the Civil War, of King
Arthur, or Jesse James, or any
other setting that was pre-alr
plane, that sometimes the cam
era unintentionally catches a
jet vapor trail in the sky? Very
jarring, the contrast.
Egg production in the United
States in 1956 totaled 5.087 million
dozen ? 3 per cent more than
the 1955 record output.
