Well, well, well' here COMES VIA
Joe'i again after a four week 8 snooze.
Am so glad that l am permitted to
talk to SO many of my old friends
and acquaintance thru the columns
Of our highly appreciated Sequachee
Valley News. Our appreciation for
those noble privileges is unbounded.
We notice in last weeks issue of
the News. "Lone Star" of Dallas,
Texas. advises sold Joe" to get up
and say something, Yes, Lone
Star. {" / certainly would love once
more to have the exquisite pleasure
Of milling some of those big stripped,
blood red -meated melons you speak of,
ond going out on the creek banks as
we nsed to do with our same old asso-
c;stes, and there indulge in the same
Measures as in the days gone by, eat
ing melons, going in swimming and
having a good time, but alas, those
good old times are forever gone. Oh,
e the wheels of time could only roll
no hack about 40 years and place us
hack in our youthful days with the
knowledge and experience we now
have Then, oh then, we might APP
nreciate our privilege and improve our
Communities, but these things can't
nossibly be, and we have to abide by
the natural events and make the best
of them we eau, letting by-gones be
hv-goues and look forward with hope
fnl authorizations that some sweet day
We NAV all assemble on the banks Of
sweet deiverance. and enjoy our
sslyes in a mole perfect way, where
poodbyes are never heard.
