What about the crab grass
among the little cotton? It looks
like blue ribbon on a Y. llow
straw hat. especially soon in the
morning when the dew IS on the
grass. Well, if it wasn't for lice
lazy woman would never comb
her headsand if it wasn't for grass
lazy man would never work his
crop. So some of Pharoah's plaques
were left among US for a purpose.
F,rty star ds Of cotton and "nar.
rs" one Of corn, is tie report.
Curious to me how moles can
get corn under the ground. Put a
man under the ground and he can
get nothing but punishment for
his sins, if he has been bad. If he
has been good one he don't know
he is uLder there, he is SO happy.
Noah and his eleven SONS have
worked out all the leading roads
around here except the road lead
ing from Six Mile to Cateechee
They have moved from here toward
Liberty. We don't know whether
they will come back soon to work
! the above road or not, but one
thing we do know, there is 60
ing to be a shooting match the last
Tuesday in August coming, and
Six Mile and Cateechee are laying
in their ammunition. We have
given you fair warning, gentlemen,
and it will be too late to pray after
the devil appears at the door. All
we can say then, is: "We told
you about eating that frozen bread. "
We wish some Of the fat men
(corpulent we mean) would sorter
divide up and not all the fat ones
run for sheriff and all the poor
ones run for county commissioner i.
[ always thought man with two
good hind legs could out run fat
sheriff, but | had rather have a
fat sheriff than a poor county
commissioner,

Saturday evening in the yard OF
his girls house and her gone. We

believe it was him crying.
