WE NEVER DID.

Greeneville News: A few days
ago know-it-all called our atten-
ton to the fact that we "never saw
a baldheaded woman" Well, what
of that? There are a good many
things we never saw a woman do.
We never saw woman who would
refuse to subscribe for her home
paper because it advocated temper
ance and law enforcement. We
never saw woman sit on dry
goods box and "cuss" out the town
because she couldn't buy bottle
of bootleg poison. We never saw
woman 60 fishing with bottle of
"bait'' in her hip pocket, sit all
day on the damp ground, 60 home
drunk at night and abuse her hus-
band and children because they
didn't believe lie she told about
"a big fish" that broke the hook
and got away after she had nearly
landed it. We never saw woman
yank off her coat, give her pants a
hitch, spit on her hands and swear
she could whip the biggest man in
town. Come to think of it, there
are good many things we never
saw a woman do, and don't want to
either.
