"a JOY RIDE"

On the spur of the moment Sunday
evening, someone suggested a trip to
Smyrna, which resulted in twelve of the
young men in town hiring Lee Orrell's
automobile for the evening.
As on sightseeing tour, "Jonesy"
pointed out all places of interest en-route
and upon our arrival in Smyrna, with
the assistance of the chief-of- police,
whose stalwart figure, with his four
trusty weapons, we discovered draped
over a rubbish can on the four corners,
we journeyed to such historical spots as
the Post Office, the Cooler" and a
Cemetery (''Jonesy'' informed US that
there were four.)
When time came for leaving, two of
our boys were missing, (P, and b. but
after diligent search, the culprits
were discovered decorating the red
plush furniture of somebody's parlor,
with the lights turned low. 1t was
with great difficulty and after lot of
coaxmg they consented to join us on the
journey homeward.
At $50 amid cheers and the pugnent
odor of burning gasoline, we left
Smyrna, free to slumber amid her
charms, and were greatly enlightened
by the prospects, sometime in the fu-
ture) of her becoming a great and
glowing city.
On the way home we were perhaps a
little tired, but quite merry and we
doubt very much if the inhabitants of
Blackbird slept peacefully while we went
by.
'Pop" Kitchline was the best song
ster on the return trip as he informed
US that he had consumed a pint of
grape juice.
On our arrival home, all made 'B''
line for Stellar's Bakery and bought
every pie in the store. Pie, Pie, every
body had a pie, some two and three,
because no eatables could be obtained
in Smyrna except frog-legs from Duck
Creek.
Between bites of pie, songs were rem
dered and also sighs of relief.
After all available refreshments were
consumed, we disbanded only to dream
of pink elephants and blue monkeys,
which will eventually result from eating
too much pie before retiring.
