Dear Mrs. Lloyd Writes
To Friends In The

We get occasional glimpse
of the Gap through the Big
Stone Gap Post, sent us through
the thoughtfulness of Mrs. NJ.
"lnever re tllz III before what
a village paper | only quote)
could mean To absentees.
i see the people we knew
aud wonder over strange
names; see what stores are
still doing business, read of en-
tertainments and prizes and
new dwellings, in the home
town. little babies, runaway
couples, aud always note with
interest where the Guild is TO
meet each week
Mrs. Lloyd says she did noe
know what it was she had
missed SO ~ japan uutil she
wentto the mountains this sum
mer and met \ COW.
She had not seen nor heard a
cow since she had been in
Japan, and she thinks that
possibly we do not properly
appreciate those meandering
independent minstrels of the
highways of the Gap" We
protest that we do. Oh, indeed
we do, especially when we
awaken TO view a devastated
garden, or spend a sleepless
night listening to their bells in
a nearby vacant lot.
