LOVI N G YOU Brady's BLARNEY By A Brady Called J. P. Mrs. Robert Parrish, of Route 3. mailed me a "Smile A While" that observes: "Just think of the. motley our towns passed up back in the good old horse and buggy days because no one was bright enough to make piggy banks out of the hitching posts in the town square." jpb No doubt because of my recent columns about by visit to New York City, Mrs. Rita Coggins. of ; Route 1, comes up with a bit of j poetry about her experiences in j the big city. After describing in verse some encounters along Times Square and Broadway, she closes neatly with: And back to the hills of North Carolina I did roam. I no longer cared for a New York home. jpb A former Franklinite now living in Mt . Vernon, Wash., Fred Dowdle, sends me a series of four poems entitled, "Trees, But Not By Joyce Kilmer". Here they are: The Aspen Don't think the aspen is dissem bling When in the autumn breeze it's trembling : If you went nude each winter through The way it does, you'd tremble too. The Sycamore The sycamore's a lovely sight, With bark that is part dark, part light; But if our faces were as blotched. We'd say the human race was bo Killed The Apple If Isaac Newton hadn't been Beneath an apple tree and seen That apple (all. today we'd be Without the lav of gravity. The Elm The elm. that stateliest of trees. Is dying of Dutch elm disease Why can't Dame Nature use her head And kill off folks who should be dead? JPb Have you heard the one about the little girl who came home from Sunday School full of glow ing reports of the lesson about 'Moses and the Pills"? Her parents couldn't quite fig ure this one out. but the little girl finally wised them up by ex plaining how "Moses went up the mountain and came back with a bunch of tablets".
