The kickers-what a grand tribe
they represent always grumbling
at something, always finding fault,
looking at the dark side of every.
thing, mad because they can't turn
the world upside down and have no
one on top but themselves, and If
they see an article 10 the paper that
could possibly allude to any one, If
1t hasn't the name of some great
man or woman to,it they will stretch
themselves up three or four inches
above their regular height and get
redheaded and say that means me,
and another says that means me. he
wrote 1t, she wrote 1t, they are
writing about US; we will watch for
him; there will be a hot time In the
old town then. Now, friendly
kickers, who was 1t that 1t hit? If 1t
hit you, you must have been In the
same boat with the ones alluded to.
You need not get up and dance buck
and wing dances. there are others
beside you. 1t the shoe fits you all
we can say Is for you to wear 1t no
matter If 1t does pinch. We are
sorry that we marred the tender
affections of some. But can we
help 1t? No. And would not If we
could. We wrote nothing but truth
and we defy the ones that 1t hit to
truthfally say it was not true. So
now, kickers, we are going to write
ahead and IL you get hit we can't
help 1t that. "ut OF our line of bus
mess. We don't c4re'if you get
around the corner and swear like
lawyer, no one but God will hear
you but you will get your reward
