EDDYTORIUL

It is al1us custumn1ary along
about this time of year for us to
take Our eddytoriul pen in hand and
calm ourself down, as we might
say, and write out with considerable
poetick effushicn a eddytoriul ON
the subjeckt of "Springp
We repeat and reiterrate and not
only that, but we also emfasize Our
Irepittashion & reitterashion that to
do this has been Our custum and we
shall not depart from it this spring.
The pote has said that "Custuns
may change" but the pote is good
cal mistaken and if he was here
present we should tell him so right
to his face. If the pote thinks our
custurn of writing a bewtifewl ed
EDITORIAL on Spring" is ever a
going to change as long as we are
editor & prop. of the Bingvi1le
Boogle he is good cal mistaken.
AS we say we don't assume the
same attytude when we be writing a
eddytoriu1 on Spring" as we do
when we be writing eddytoriu1 on
graft or politicl1al corrupshion or
scoring our town selectnen for
derilickshun of their duties or
sometfink of that kind No, we
are in a far different attytude to
that-when we write a eddytoriul
on "Spring' we be full of tender
thorts & grarnrner & rhapsody &
poetick feelings & things like that.
They amt very many folks knows
that a person like US who writes
eddytoriu1s & personals & loka1
items, ct cettery, can be poeticka1
without writing verses which
rhymes with each other like what
Miss Sally Hoskins writes, our re-
nouned pome writer, whose PONIES

to pay for it theirselfs (being Dor
rowed by so many folks makes the
Bingville Bugle the best advertising
medium in this end of the county,
becuz this increases its circulashion
n1anyfold-the attenshion of .adver-

we repeat that we don't haft to

sonebuddy else, we don't know who.

we was saying, while the Deacon was
talking Ham happend to come in. Bye
and bye the Deacon askt Ham if he
would step outside the store a rninnit.
being as he desired to say somethink
to him very private, and so Ham & the
Deacon slept out and conversed togeth-

after which Ham come back in agin,
but not the Deacon, who went along
home snokin his pipe.
Hen Weathersby, prop. of the store,
askt Ham if what the Deacon had said
to him was a sec1ret, being IF it wassent
the fel1ers in the store would IKE to
know about it.
Ham, he kind of chucEled to hisself
a while, and said yes it was very deep
seckret, but if everybody present would
promise not to let what the Deacon told
him go no further he guessed there
want no harm in tellin it, and of course
everybody promised, so Ham he said
that the Deacon had askt him to bring
from the Co. seat the next day, Friday,
a eight gal keg of ale to be used strick-

Spring, o gladsum Spring, we
welcome you into our midst agin
with glad acclaim! We are tur-
rible glad that you have came at
last & that onct more the snow
and Use has disappeared and the
cold north winds which has blowd
so awful has became nothink but
gentle zefers and we hope they
will continue so until late in the
fall.
Yes, Gentle Spring you are jest
as welcome to the inhabitants of
Bingville as the flours in May !!
Only yesternight (yesternight is a
word which potes use awful lot
and it must be a turrible good
word, which is why we use it).
Only yesternight as we set by our
open easement Easement means
winder) we heerd robin singin,
which is a shure sign that spring is
about to arrive. Not only that, but
if you will take the trouble to make
exarninashion you will find that
the little green shoots of grass has
begin to shoot and that the little
buds on the trees has begin to bust
operl-these is also a sign of
Spring.
Some other pote has said that
Spring fingers in the lap of win
ter but we are glad that she don't
linger in the lap of winter as long
as common this spring, that it
won't be long before the days will
be warm & sunny and by the time
July and August gifts here it will be
hottern b1azes, we calkilate. That's
the worst of Twin in this climate
in the winter it's so goshblamed
cold that it nearly freezes the horns
often n1uley COW or the ears often
a brass monkey, and in the summer
it's so alfred hot that it nearly
gives YOU sunstroke unless you re-
main in the shade most of the day,
which most Bingville folks does.
If we could only have spring all
the year round how turrible happy
we would all be!

some of it into his mouth also pervid-
ed his mouth was open. Be that as h
may it wassent no time until all of the
8 gals of ale in the key but a qt or two
had excaped and was a being soaked
up by the dirty floor of the cellar to
the deep disgust and Indignation of
the Deacon.
To make matters worse when Mrs.
Butterworth found it was ale the way
she lit into the Deacon was somethink
awful. She raked him over the coain
and combed him down purity fine for
bringing ale into the basement and thus
disgrasing her for life-then she set
down on the cellar steps and begin to
cry.
Amir HaineS happened to be passing
when the Deacon was hollering for help
and Amir rushed into the house and
stood at the head of the cellar STEPS
while the Deacon was being chastisad
by his wife. Amir said he could slcasly
keep from laffing out loud and giving
hisself away He said all the Deacon
could say to his wife was that when ho
hollered for help it was becuz he was
so surprised and skeert when that aba
busted out into his Ease & other wise he
would not of did so. After Amir had
heerd all he wanted to he snuk outen
the house and told what he had heerd
all over Bingville.
If you want to git the Deacon ril4d
up all you haft to do is to ask him II
he thinks ale is good for medicinal pur-
poses.
Ham Wilkins the stage driver is Also
purity mad. Ham amt been paid yet
only not for hauling the key of ale from
the Co. seat but also not for the ale
itself being as Ham paid for that too
becuz the Deacon told Ham to pay for
il and that he would pay him and Ham
done so and the chances is now that
Ham never will git paid for it. Ham
says he will give the Deacon a week
more to pay for that ale and il it amt
paid for by that time he will bring suit
aginst him and carry it to the Soopreme
Court if necessary in order to git his
AS for the Deacon he says that he
wont newer pay for no key of ale
that is so goshrammed full of hops and
things that when you bore into the key
it all excapes and that it was Hams
fault that it excaped becuz he wassent
keerful not to shake it up when he
bring it from the Co. seat.

to make the music difficult, especially
in ensemble playing. Probably at
no time has the band shown the per

the concert and that was the incess-
