AS HE SEES THE
HUMAN SIDE 0? LIFE
WELL, SITCH IS LIFE
Waynesville, The Purty
(Purty Kwite, I meen) Oct. 4.
Mr. Editur & Reeders uv The Mt.
neer, How air ye all? x x x me? Oh,
not mutch x x x purty porely. Fackt
is I'm down in the mowth an' dis
gruntled .. mad an' messed up in
mind ... di-zeesed an' discouraged . .
sick an' sore . ; . run down an' re
busted an' plum petered out! Yes,
an almost disjinted . . caze I slipt up
n' fell on the back steps this a. m.
turned eands, landed on my mid-seck-shun
-rolled, slid an' bumpt to the
bottom. I finely hobbled up (no-bod-dy
won't help me up, when I fall)
all muddy, broozed an' limpin' like an
ol' swinneyed hoss.
Ye see, if I had enny flash on my
ol' bones hit woodn't be so bad; but
seein' as how I haint got but a few
oz. ... well, I kaint stan menny more
sitch falls.
Then I've got other good reezuns

fer feelin' bloo, Mr, Editur . . . jiat
like menny other good, onnrst, hard
workin', sober ( ? ) devils in this kun
try. The trubble is, fokes, thcze good
kwalaties don't seem to git a feller
no whir enny more. Time onct wuz
when a purty good preecher, docktur,
Editur, kemist & so foarth got the
breaks 'sumtimes got in tho hed
lines an' had peeple takin' all kinds
o' in-trust in him ... but not now.
Not onless the preecher 'lopes with
hiz steward's wife, the doctur per
forms illegally, the teecher kills her
oan dad with a slipper, ei fcump'm, the
Editur fites a dewel or the kemist
takes hiz oan pi-zen.
Yest sir, fokes, ever thing's aig-in
this here ploddin' onnest, self-respec-tin,
Ime-dyoaker ex-zistence now-a-days.
Fokes air out fer the brakes in
life, fer a thrill the hed-lines, no
matter what hit takes to git thar!
(Now, you'll prob'ly think Unkle
Abe wuz tryin' fer the hed-lines this
a. m. on them steps; no but I al
most made the brakes,)
Ye see, fokes this is all becaws the
moovies sorter skool us up in the reck
less, darin' glam-erus, go-git-em Hfe;
Our skools incourage it, the press
poplerizes it an' the home an' church,
indulges it.
Menny a young Guy, aiter bein' fed
up on Wildwesturtiers an' sitch like,
thinks hits kwite the thing to make
a hold-up an escape the officers at 80
miles per, or bump hizself off at a
precypis or lake-bank brcaws life
wuz jist too dog-on dull fer sitch a
brite (?) intelleck.
Then, too, I think this is also a
reezun .why that's so mutch graft,
stealin', robbin', kid-nappin' & so
foarth a-goin' on. Howsumever, -lack
uv law inforcement on the part uv
our coarts an' bffycers is doubtless
the principel reezun.
So it wuz that I got to fninkin'
this mornin' what's the yooce enny
way! .. V
Like menny a-nother Average Siti
zen, I've tride purty hard . . . an" faled
to make the grade like 1 had hoped to.
(Aint hit so in yore case?)
Furst come teechin', then bizness,
then newspaper work, then preechin'
anfinely (ma-by ) newspaper work
aig-in ... still jist a hum-drum, nn -dyoaker
ex-zistence. :
So now, bein' past middle age (no
Unkle Abe aint as old as he looks) and
seein' as how the sarids air gitten sor
ter low in my glass, I've pulled in my
salc-s,. so to speck.' ,
Why, fokes, that "' charry-ott,

Warns Of Diseases
Contracted Thru
Bad Eating Places
Raleigh. Septic sore throat, ty
phoid fever, diphtheria, trench mouth,
syphilis and tuberculosis are among
the diseases cited by J. M. Jarrett,
sanitary engineer. Division of County
Health Work, State Board of Health,
as communicable through insanitary
eating places. "There is a secondary
group," he added, "such as undulant
fever, which is transmitted through
unsafe raw milk from cows infected
with contagious abortion; trichinosis,
from infected pork, and food poison
ing, which may be transmitted
through several different types of
unclean food. It is possible for con
taminated food to be brought into a
hotel or cafe after a sanitary inspec
tion has been made by the health de
partment, but this is much less likely
to occur in tirade A places.''

me uv the joke Dr. Truesdas tells
A speeker riz up at a Methodist
Kenf erence onct an' jromiBt to speek
places where food is served to the
public are subject to inspection by
representatives of the State Board of
Health, Mr. Jarrett pointed out. "The
grades determined by the board are:
Grade A, 90-100; Grade B, 80-90;
Grade C, 70-80. Although hotels and
cafes may operate with a score of 70
per cent, the State Board of Health
recognizes that Grade A cafes and
hotels are the safest places away
from home and advises you to patron
ize them."
Look For The Sign
The Grade A sign in hotels or'rublic
eating places means that either the
local health department or the State
Board of Health has made an inspec
tion of the place in question and that
Rockefeller Birthplace

Rockefeller in Tioga County, N. Y-
was up for taxes last week. On Hts
farmhouse in which Mr. Rockefeller
was born in 1839 taxes of $90.3?
were due. The county took possession.
a numerical score of 90 per cent r
more has been made. The Grade; A
sign, which must be prominently dis
played, has blue lettering, the Grade?
B sign red lettering, and the Grade
C sign green lettering, making it
very conspicuous. "Look for the sign."
Mr. Jarrett advises.
I've seed the time, too, Mr. Editur,
when I'de druther a-bin hit over the
hed.

Well, fokes, I reckon 'bout the
safest place in the U. S. rite now is

he turns hiz oan hat an' looks at it

I think I left my pensil an' note

So, I hereby giv Publick Notis, as
