EDDYTORIUL

We take our eddytoriu1 pen in
hand on this ospisf1ious June morn
ing to dash off a eddytoriu1 on
'Bingville the Beautiful-and How
to Make It So"
For considerable spell back we
have had it in mind to dash off a
eddytoriul of this descripsfion, be-
ing as there be certain things in
Bingvi1le which is eyesores to us,
and about which we desire to
speak about.
How can Bfngvi11e ever hope to
become beautiful unless every citi-
zen puts his or her shoulder to the
wheel and does their share in this
direckshion?
During this glad summer season
is the time to add touch of beauty
to our enterprising town and re-
juvenate her, so to speak. Nothing
can be did along this line in winter
when the thermometer is below
zero and everybody is obliged to
cluster around the fire to keep from
freezin to deth. But summer has
come once again, so let us wake to
the needs of the occas11ion and
make Bingville more beautifuller
than she has ever been in the past.
Take Cy Hoskins' front fence for
instants-it amt been painted now
for going on IS yrs. and z pa1ings
is missing because we counted 'en
only yesterday. If Cy was to paint
up and repair his fence, he wouldn't
be doing no more than he ort to.
Then there is Widow SINNERS
henhouse, which needs a new coat
of whitewash-an so does several
| other henhouses in our midst, for
that matter. There is a pain of
glass broke outen Hank Dewberry's
residence, and in place of the pain
of glass is unsightly rag stuffed
into the hole where the pain of glass
ort to be. This is not only an eye
sore to passersby, but also looks abb
surd and ridiculus in the extream
We could give other instances of
things in this town which, if they
was did, would beautify Bingville,
but the above which we have give
is sufhshent.
Let US all do our duty in this
respeckt until Bingville becomes
one of the most beautifu1lest cities
in the country. and a pride to every
PRESIDENT In our midst.

Awful Calamity

Hame Powers of Sorrow Hollow has
been visiting his married daughter,
Mrs. Enos Wilkins of Bingvi1le, for the
past several days Hame is old so1jor
of the Rebellyon, having lost his leg at
the Battle of Gettysburg, where he had
his leg took often clean as whistle,
and has been wearing a wood leg ever
sinst which he straps on at the knee.
Tother ev'g, Hame went to sleep in
Hen Weathersby's store and Gid Small
ey, who is a regular cut-up, went and
unstrapped Hame's wood leg, unbe-
knownst to Hane, who woke up later
and got up and started to walk home,
but being as he didn't have but one leg
to walk on he fell with his face in a
box of dried herrings. Hame was pur-
ty mad.
Hen Weathersby, who thought the
joke had went fur enough, went and
got the leg outen a empty nail key
where Gid had hid it and give it back
to Hame. hatchery when Hen handed
over the leg Hame thought Hen must
be the guilty party and so soon as he got
holt of the leg he throwed it back at
Hens head as hard as he could throw
Hen, he lodged the leg, which whizzed
past his ear and went through the front
winder of the store, breaking out two
panes of glass.
Hame then got his leg and pumped
off back to his daughters. Hen says
that the next time he tries to help
Teller critter in distress he hopes the
person nearest to him will give him
kick where it will do him the most
good.

when he bit into it blamed if he didn't
crack his upper set of false teeth,
which has wore him for the past 10
yrs. right acrost the middle and the
teeth fell out of his mouth into his
lap.
Hez said his upper set wasn't as good
as they used to be when he first got
them, but they ought to of lasted him
several years longer with proper care.
Mrs. Andrews says she don't seem to
have much luck with her fruit cakes of
late years and that they sort of seem
to become petrihed before they get
ct up.
