c Friday. February 20.1948 R Y. Belk ! AND HIS NEWS OP NEBO VALLEY Here It is Monday morning?it's doing it again'? snowing like no body's business. H? Y. Jr., and wife spent Sunday afternoon with your reporter from the city. Mr. Loyd Self and wife from Cher ryville visited at Nebo Sunday. Our mail man sure has been having a white slick muddy time getting our mail through, but he always does his best. The road, the i road, oh, for crying out loud, do fix j our road. Not only the mall tpan says help, help, but all of us. We are just people like the rest of you?Just want to go places and see thingsdo things and get things. In this fast age some things change a heap in a mighty short time. I . reckon women chan ' ge about as little as I anything else. In 1 the Creation wo-1 man was made | right after man and she's been right after him every since, and still after him. I bet we don't care. They still want and get A map to be in good style must wear good clothes. Make like - he's got lots of money. Most any good looking woman will fall for your mo ney and help you out in spending it. The Sea of Galilee lies nearly 700 feet below the Mediterranean which is only 25 miles away. - M tU , U1 JJW ? - - '? vxie ox me uiggesi ainerences i see in men and women is it- don't do no good for a man to long, to be young again, but its so.different with our lady friends. One trip to the beauty shop and she comes out dolled up like an angel and looks ten years younger. looks like we, the men folks, must Just grunt and endure it. It's a fact, we are growing older with every passing breeze but I do not see nothing very cheerful about that No way to stop time and tide, Won't know much about it in a few hundred years, bud. I met a man. In course of conversation he tried to argue me that the BibHcal record of -Creation is not true and that the story of Adam and Eve is only a allegory. I'd hate to be a fool and let folks know it. When I was a boy?that's been several years ago?old man wnre whiskers and boots, chewed homemade tobacco and spit on the floor. Beer was 5 cents and the lunch tv viiicii uiu iiul (lajiii dim jnjw der, smoke, vote, play poker or shake the shimraie. No one was ever operated on for appendicitis. Folks walked^ miles to church and thought nothing about it. And never heard tell of a divorce. If a man got In jail it cost a dollar to get out. Ice and snow becomes lighter than water when it freezes. That's why ice floats on tops of lakes and rivers and the bottom never freezes but if *e was. heavier-than water it would sink to the bottbm and freeze solid and "maybe never melt. This is no bable: Many years ago I knew a man that lived near our Union county home. I don't Care if I call his name, he's been dead many years, Fed Holdeh. He killed a man The court found him guilty of man slaughter. The Judge told him to stand up. The Judge called his name out and said he, the court finds you guilty of murder. I condemn you to he branded in the palm of the right hand with the letter "M" made red hot and held in the palm of your hand till you say God have mercy on your soul three time. The man ever after held his hand closed when in company with Other people. I don't know Whether he , should have been branded or not. Ever after he was a very good man and led a very quiet life, but the mark went with him to the grave. He's the only man I ever knew to be branded for murder. The first thing I ever remember whs when an old mad dog came in the front door trotted through the house and fell out the back door, . while I was crouched up on the kitchen table, fell out the kitchen doof and a a fit My daddy shot at the dog five times from the top step and never hit the dog?got the axe and killed, the dog. The saddest and costliest blunder that this government ever made in the way of lives tost and dollars spent was the shipment of 10 mll)idn tons of scrap iron to Japan. They paid us for it by killing our boys and sinking our ships. Today our country is confronted with the high price at home and starvation abroad, but they say we have Just got to have beer and booze, come hell and high water. Let p 'lces soar and foreigners starve. Dredges aren't any longer these days?the girls Just getting into them farther. .Don't evdr tell me any more that an old Ground Hog don't govern tlte' weather whether he gets a kick out of it or not. I don't know, I'm sure I don't. Your, uncle1 Henry A. Wallace, one time Vice-president, announces that he will be a candidate for President on an independent ticket. Veiy well Henry, once a Republican/ then a Democrat. Now a 3-party boy, , r IS.'l . ,.v . what next please7*Truman told Hen ry to get down and out. Now Uncle Henry's coming back to try his hand at splitting the Democratic party with the Republican party. What a Jackass he must be, or something. If the price of steaks, eggs and butter keep soaring there wont be much left for starving Europe. It's getting bad at home I tell you. The great trouble with so many people?they don't realize that they have ever been married until they j are divorced. X That's all lor How. You never thought I'd be a poet: I've watched the birds with wonder When the world with dew was wet; I've fished in many a stream, When the catfish were fine. I've walked in summer's meadows sublimeWhen the sunbeams flashed and shined. And the turtle dove cooed in the pines, ' ; But I've never saw a robin puffinp at a cigarette.
