study the art of pie making as it
may prove a good brain food diet.
But come to think Of it now-l
think you mean political pie Well
that is so, but maybe some have tast-
ed it and it went down on them.
It is a difficult pie to manipulate.
Great care must be taken as to the
mixing ingredients. There are many
things highly Spiced and especially
the upper and lower crust be press
ed gently together as Hot Air will
burst it open and if too near one will
get a scare for life. Well, Calhoun
loved chicken pie and the simple life,
preferred to sit in rush bottom
chair to that presented him by an
empress and the masterpiece Of
grand artist was not as beautiful to
him as the red hills and green valleys
Of Oconee. He made no pretense to
aristrocracy but was honored by the
nobility of earth for his intellectual
strength Of mind and his love for his
State. Z Scribbler
Now here comes Seribbler again
talking about a Constitutional. "

political pie I never heard of that
and don't know what it means. But
I stick to my first statement that we
have good people in all of our streets.
And for forms and ceremonies [ am

some good. The simple life such as
Calhoun led up in the old red hills

the simple life. But pray tell me
how one can live the simple life in
this day of mad rush without being
run over or forgotten. winch Is just
as bad.
Monroe Wicker is doing some good
work on the streets now. If he just
had the opportunity l am sure we
would soon have some permanent
sidewalks and some good streets in
Newberry. We ought to do more
permanent work. But that takes
money. As a matter Of fact a good
deal of good work has been done on
our streets. That sidewalk by Mayes
drug store is Il good piece of work.
Now Friend street ought to be paved
to he depot. And that light ought
to be put up in Friend street at the
union station. Bat we can't do every
thing at once.
