JUST A MUSIN'
. By: BOB GRADY
' Have you read "A Maidens Ideal
of a Husband?" If .not, young man,
maybe It's time you look it up.
For it's spring and "a young man's
fancy lightly turns tor thoughts of
love", as Shakespeare said,
" April is the . month between
March and May, always fickle like
a woman, sometimes laughing,
sometimes crying but always playing.
New Clothes, new hats,
New fields of flowers;
New beauty,1 new life,
New sunny hours.
That's April.
Have you contributed to the
Cancer Fund drive yet?
For the past few days I have
stirred quite a bit. Not politicking
all the time either. Sunday after
noon I rode out Friendship way.
Have you seen the old Shine home?
It has been remodeled and has
what I think was that old Southern
colonial look it had in years gone
by. It's pleasant to ride through
the country-side and see our old
homes brought back to life.
Spring flowers were used in the
"'living room where two tables were
set for play. Mrs. W. J. Middleton
'.received high score prize! and sec
ond high went to Mrs. Ed Sheffield.
' ' The hostess served fudge pie
with ice cream and coffee.

Recently I met Mr. Efird from
over in Albertson. He' is almost a
new-comer to Duplin, having been
here just a few years. Says he
came from Stanley County, the
homeplace of the Efirds, made
famous by the Efird chain of stores.
(Wouldnt it be nice If one was in
Duplin?) Mr. Efird said he was
raised in the clay and rock hills
of Stanley. Since his lot in life is
to make his living from the soil
he decided to pick a spot where
the dirt was a little softer and
found in Duplin just what he was
looking for.
Have you been in A. Brooks'
store, in Warsaw recently. Since
Moman Barr has returned as man
ager the store has taken on a new
look. Shall we say a Spring look?

Song From "Pippa Passes"
The year's at the spring,
And the day's at the morn;
Morning's at seven;
The hill-sides dew-pearled;
The lark's on the wing;
The snail's on the thorn;
God's in His Heaven
All's right with the world.
-Robert Browning.
