EDDYTORIUL.

At this the beginning of the New
Yr. we grasp our edditoriul pen
firmly in hand with stedfast reso-
luton to dash off for this ishue of
the Boogle eddytoriu1 on the fol-
1ering subjeckt, viz, i.e., towit-
'"TTIE WOODCHUCK."
The woodchuck may seem like a
Gurus subjeckt to write about, but
whilst we was wondering what in
thunderashion we would take for
subjecl<t for this wk's ishue, be-
ing as most of the subjects that
there is in the world we have wrote
about as you might say, or in other
words we have jest almost exosted
Our repertoire (French), we hap
pened to. think that we haddent
never wrote a eddytoriul on the
woodchuck and that if we was to
do so on this occasion we could
draw a turrible powerful moral
from same which ort to apply to
about 9-tenths of the inhabitants of
Bingville, who reminds us more of
woodchucks than emmy luther ami
mile we can think of.
The woodchuck is one of the
LATEST 1oafers we have amongst the
dumb proofs, and that's why he re-
minds us of some of our most re-
specified citizens. In summer
time when the sky is fair and the
days is warm, the woodchuck don't
have nothink to do but browse
away in his hole and go out to eat
his breakfast, dinner and supper
when he gets hungry, and he don't
haft to go very fur for that either
being as he lives on roots & YARDS
Rsd things which generally grows
right near to his den. Sometimes
of course he eats corn and vegeta-
bles to the deep disgust of whoever
owns corn & vegetables. In uther
words, the woodchuck don't take
no thort for the morrow.
But when winter comes, how
ever, and cold wether sets in he
dens up in his hole and goes to
sleep and don't wake up til spring.
During the cold wether he becomes
very comatose & 1etflargic. (SPE-l
SHIAL NOTIS-For the benefit
of our more ignorunter subscribers
we will explain that conatose &
lethargic means that the wood
chuck in winter is horse de combat
This will save you 1oolSin up the
of these words in the
dickshionary and likes as not you'll

Bingville who is nothink more than
human woodchucks. When winter
comes and it gifts cold they kind OF
seem to loose all their energy and
ambishion, and they den, up at
home week in and wk out and git
so dog-blamed dooless s. good for
nothink that they amt skeercly got
enuff gumpshion to keep the fire
goin or freeze to deth.
That's why Bingville is as dead
as mackerel in winter time. We
ort to be ashamed of ourse1fs to
let folks from Hardscrabble pass
through OUR midst and then go
home and say that when they
passed along through our Main st.
they diddent see Twin SOUL. Let
us git out on the SITS and show our
sells. Let's not be like a passel of
woodchucks who has crawled into
their holes and tied their holes into
a hard knot behint en-! Let us
show folks from other towns that
we can git out and hussle even if
the thermometer is below zero.
