Tor the Gazette or the Independent
either, in he same style that is natural to
us, he'll find heap OF our best Citizens
dead set agin him. Ennyone believes
in allowing credit where its comm but
there is a pile Of difference twixt mendin
shoes, runnin peanut roasters, chewin
gun, slot machines on the outside and
strappin razors and writin for the columns
OF these papers as we are.
Vine Hanscom and Ellick DeShetler
are fixin up the saw mill so they can run
it next summer o. *. Vine is the one
that files the saws always when the mill
is runnin and Ellick runs them. Vine
is a good man to file saw alright & so
is Ellick good one to run l. There's
enough logs this time to run longer than
any before if they get them allin.
Some of them are sayin Mabunom
aint very well educated and tryin to be
little our style Of writin and putin things
but Mabunon finished up at school
were they teached language that was
not all writriIr nor found in books and
off and on in the columns of these papers,
we may put things that will be clearer
maybe, il you read betwixt the lines,
where there aint any words printed on.
George Shaffcr who runs the House
his Father used to has takin to writin'
for the Sun which is peddled on our
streets at night after the train goes up &
his artickIe on account Of the big paper
mills at the head of the creek polluttin,
the water and KILN all the fish meets
the sanctum of all our Patriotic Citizens
and maybe if George keeps ons touchin'
his quill to the paper somethin' will be
doue bout it,
A bad accident came mighty near
takin' place last week on day when Of
our Citizens viz Howard Metzgar who
does the buyin' for Barclays BIG store
tumbled backwards out of George Grass
leys bob sled and lit on his head and
shoulders in a heap. Howard is a
powerful big man all right and had good
iootin' in the sled but when the horses
Started nnbeknowcst to him he tumbIed
right out llckitysplit o. K.
There's neap Of talk coin round bout
the way some of them will be fxt up
with macks for the party like once be-
fore | told you. Everybody is wonder,
ing how the other fellow is goin' to be
riggcd up and gues>in whose goin to get
the prize for havin the smartcst git up
which some one says is a real old fash
ioned Pumpkin pie Abe Tuain rcckons
h'll .set the prize His make up will
kindle your eyes o. X.
Some time ago wrote in prose
l scarcely know of friend or foes
A sewing circle the r. p. U.
They handle well what ere they do
Tis seldom any one they spars
OF gossip get there proper share
But folks have learned to grin and bear
The news that goes just flying round
Until it fall upon the ground
And hits somebody's name.
Pve told yold you of the motely band
They turn out anything at hand
The latest gossip in the land
Is spread broadcast and round about
You'd wonder how they found it out
To get so quickly spread
The neighbors all declare it true
The Old Maids Club the R. P. L,
The best to say when all are thru
Let 1t remain unslid.
You'd scarcely think this brsy throng,
The r. p. T., could get along,
Within a coun,r, id so small,
With such amazing skill,
Let il b. said the gossip spread
Is surely fit to kil
Blu, then how can we ali tonc,
When we do not to oilers as we should
When we are saved by Grace alone
To gain an everlasting home
How can we all be good
This is a. best a faulty sphere
Hence we are left to guess and fear
And every doubt,
P. s. Note.
The r. p. U. will give ball
Am told takes place in Brooks Hall
Just bring you mask and be in line
TO do honor TO st. Valentine
Am told the doors will close at eight.
Cards are out TO one and all
OF stature small and stature tall
Old, young, fats and leans
Maids Of fourty, maids of teens
We hope to dance the time away
At the masquerade of ST. Valentines Day.
Avoid CONGESTION at the door.
MABUNON.
