Intertype Bits By Bill Well, folks, here's a bit more nonsense for this week.

Mr. George Kimsey and Miss How ard, our school teacher, were visiting Franklin on business Saturday. Mr. Weimer Hastings, of Franklin trats visiting in this section on Sun day. 147 Mr. George Moffitt, of Cartooge- C2jre, was in this section on business the past week". The time of this writing is Tuesday night, 10:50.. After laboring con tinuously all day and till this time of night, on the Intertype, we feci too fatigued to collect our thoughts for any. sensible paragraphs. And too, we are just recovering from . the shock of this -evening iit 5 P. M. It was our first appearance in a court of any description. 28 or more of us "speed demons" Were hailed into the Mayor's court. However,. Judge Rickman was very lenient with his sentence. For which we are grateful. It was reported that not one of the speeders made less than 35 miles per hour. And only those driving at the greater speeds were "pinched". One man made 70 miles per hour. That must have been our model T "Lizzie." Making about 25 miles forward and 45 up and down. Mr. Street -says "we" were caught because the "lizzie" made so much racket. The "boss" says "we" were caught for being a "public nuisance' Both may be right. Everybody has their ups and downs and, especially model T Ford owners. Our good friend Ernie Dehartwas among the mourners in the mayor's court for speeding not in his work at the" post office, however. When something happens in the wrong way, and at the wrong time, we, by force of habit, blate. forth a few profane words. Mr. Street doesn't see the reason or excuse for this habit. Well, in the first place, it's a source of- relief to our feelings, and in the second place, it just na turally comes more handy. During the past week, we bought a load of wood .from a Macon county citizen. His charge was $2.50. We paid him one green back and the remainder was paid by a subscription to The Press. The green back is limited to 100 cents. But there is no limit to the value of the $1.50 he spent on the Press, providing he uses the information printed therein. A man climbs a pole 100 foot high. He goes up 20 feet in the day time and falls back 10 feet that night. How many days will it take him to reach the top? Mr. Notman and wife, Notffom, Mo., stopped at a local hotel recently, it was said. We bought some chicken feed at the Farmers' Supply the other day. Here is the conversation that ensued during' the sale: Bill "Mr. Moore what have you for sale, in the way of chicken feed. I mean feed that will make the hens lay?
