DOUSED!
But not Drownsp Which They Mite of Bssn-Ws Refer to Hank Dew berry & Hod SIocomb Who Went Fishing in Gootchlc Pond on a Sunday and Nearly Got Thslr EverIastln!

Hank Dewberry, one of our most disrespecltful. townsmefl, .., also Hod Slocomb, who ain't much bettern last Sunday, and what they went Hod's memories for some time to come, or we miss our guess. If what they went through will make them take life more serious and induce them fc live better & nobuller existences then Ieverybody in this town will be glad that what happened did happen. There was powerful moral in the lesson they learnt and we trust Hank and Hod will profit by it.
 Early last Sunday morning, instead of Hank and Hod getting up betimes and making preparations to attend the morning services at 10 a. m. in the Bingville church, they both made prep arashions to go over the Gootchie Pond and to spend the day there fish ing. Now ain't that a nice way for two citizens of this town to act on a cundayl We'll, Hank and Hod Jeff Bingville about 8 a. fIl., accompanied by their fishing poles, lunch and a gal Hug of old hard cider, which Hod had purchased often Brad Hinsley the night before for quarter. Hod says he can git more fun outen quarter by spend ing it for hard cider than he can for peanuts or popcorn.
 Hank and Hod arrove at Gootchic Pond about 10, and borrowing the lend of Bill Snyders old flat-bottoned boat who lives on the shore of Gootchic, they both started out fishin. Up to this time they hadn't tetched the hard cider being as they wanted to keep it until they got to fishing but as soon as they got their lines in the water, they begin to hit up the hard cider in the jug. It appears that Hank was afeard that Hod would get more than his share of the cider, and Hod he felt the same way SO they passed the jug from one to tother until they drained the jug in five minutes. There wasn't a drop left in the jug, but both Hod and Hank had a half gal inside each, which soon begin to take effeckt, and it wasn't long until they become very hilarious and joyful. The cider seemed to effeckt Hod more than it did Hank, leastways Hod he made the most noise. He sung all the songs he could sing, and he can't sing anyhow Hod when he goes to sing has voice on him like a calf pickering cuz it's scairt to deth. Hank he tried to get Hod to keep quiet, but Hod didn't pay no more attenshion to Hank than if he hadn't been in the boat at all.
 Bye and bye Hod thort he had a bite and he pulled his line outen the water, but there wasn't nothing on it, and when he went to throw it back in the line went around Hanks neck and tn. hook went right, through the lobe of Hanks left ear Hank he out with his knife and cut the line of close to the hook and then had to break the hook before he got it out, but Hod was so intoxicated that he never even missed the hook often his line and went on fishing without no hook at all and wondered why in thunderashion the fish didn't bite.
 Bye and bye Hod he got fatigged fishing and throwd his pole into the worter Then Hod couldn't think of anything else to do, so he begin to rock the boat just to sleer Hank and it did

The Montgomery advertiser., 1909-06-20

We are going to write a edito- rial for this issue of the Bugle on
 the subjec1t Poverty & It's Dis advantages" which we now take our editorial pen in hand to do.
 This is a subjeckt which has been very near to our heart for many years, and we feel perfectkly competent to handle it with the deepest feelings, being as we have been through it, as you might say, and know what we are a talking about as well as anybody else in this neighborhood.
 Poverty ain't no disgrace-there ain't no contumely nor ignominy nor anything like that attached to being poor in this worlds goods. In other words, man can be poor as Jobs turkey and still enjoy the respeckt of his feller men. No right-n1inded person would look down on a man because he hap pened to be poor, but that's not the pint. While it ain't no disgrace to be poor, look how inconvenient it is What chanst has a poor person
 got in this world? Answer-they ain't got no chanst. What can a person do in this vale of tears without the wherewithal to pur- chase the bare necessities of life? i? Absolutely nothing!
 Folks who ain't been cursed with the curse of poverty-folks who don't know what it is to not know where their next meal is coming from don't know nothing about this sad state of affairs. Them as is rich and affluent and have all they want to eat, drink and wear-thern who takes no thought for tomorrer, they don't know or realize the turrible disad- vantages of poverty.
 We calkilate if some folks in this here town had of run the Bingville Bugle on air and prom ises as many years as we did it. we calkilate if they had of tried to get out the Bugle prompt on time every week, for as many weeks as we have and got nothing in re- turn for our efforts excepting a subscripshion list of dead beat sub scribers, they would know some thing about poverty and its disad- vantages.
 i As editor & prop. of the Bing- vile Bugle we don't yearn to be rich beyond the fondest dreams of avarise-we don't banker to be a bloated bondholder, as you might say, and to have our pants pockets bulging with hundred dollar notes

skeer Hank turrible. Hank helt onto the boat with both hands and told Hod to for goodness sakes stop that or they would both lose their lifes in a watery grave, being as the lake where they was must of been over 25 it. deep. Hod he jest laffed and kept on rocking the boat for dear life. Finally Hank grabbed a oar and he says to Hod, "Cuss you any how, if you don't stop rockin' this boat I'll hit you wallop over the headi"
 Go ahead and wallop." says Hod; T ain't scairt of you"
 Hank he meant what he said, SO he stood up in the boat and struck at Hod with oar, but missed hitting him and Hank lost his balance and over he went into the worter. Hank he can't swim scarcely at all, and when he come up cof- fing and spluttering he happened to be right alongside the boat, so he grabbed it Hod was laffing fit to bust becuz Hank had fell in and when Hank he tried to crawl back into the boat it tipped and out went Hod also. Then both of them was in the water hanging onto the boat for dear life.
 When Hod went in it sobered him up good cal, being as he begin to realize the gravity of his posishion. Hank says he reckons he tried to climb on the boat which was bottom side up moren hun dred times, but every time it would turn with him and back into the worter ker- plunk he would go. They hollered for help, but no person heerd them, and be- ing as they was too far from shore to swim, and the water was too deep to wade, they just hung on and waited for the end. Hank says that Hod got turrible scairt and offered up prayer, and that he took pledge that if his worthless life was spared he. would never again tetch a drop of hard cider as long as he lived, but Hod denies this.
 We'll, to make a long story short and end the agony, as you might say tke wind finally drifted the overturned boat with the two men hanging to il near enuff to shore, so that they could wade out, which they done, and pulled the boat after them. The lunch they had took along had been lost, and they was hungrier than couple of bears.
 Hank was turrible mad at Hod and wouldn't have anything to do with him. After cussing each other for awhile they both started to walk back to Bingville by separate routes, being as they hated each other too much to keep together As we go to press Hank & Hod is still bad friends, and they will probably remain SO for quite a spell to come.

The first big race meet at the new Indianapolis automobile speedway will be held, from Aug 19 to 21. Sanction has been granted byythe American Au- tomobile Association for the three days motorcar racing carnival, and from present indications the inaugural con-
 tests will be crowned with success. To give some idea of the racing that will take place on the Indianapolis course it is necessary to compare it with the Vanderbilt course and the Savannah and Cobe events. These courses meas ure from twenty to twenty-five miles to a lap. In the Cobe event each car passed the grand stand sixteen times, whereas on the Indianapolis speedway
 in a 400 mile race each car would pass a given point about 158 times, which
 would seem to furnish excitement and
 action enough to satisfy any one. The
 speedway park has an area of BPS acres. There are forty-one buildings
 including grand stands, garages, auto
 drome, club houses, machine shops, oil houses. refreshment and office build ings. The total cost of the speedway exceeded $350. 900. The circumference of the outer track and road course is five miles. The track is of gravel
 surface. using 300, coo gallons of asphalt oil. The grand stand and box seats accommodate 25,000. Ten thousand automobiles can be parked on the grounds. One mile and a half of sid- ing has. been built to accommodate
 sleeping and dining cars. The entire grounds will accommodate 200, 900 per sons. The turns are banked fourteen feet and have a 1,500 foot radius.

He expects to begin his next walk to the Pacific early next year. Westoa was so much disappointed by his failure to make the first trip in an even hundred days that he will try again.
