TO ONE MORE GOAT.

Social Corner F'olks:-To "One More Goat" I would say: I am glad you aired your mind as there is truth enough in it, although the Social Cor ner people try to be social with every one, and make strangers feel welcome and at home right away, and draw them into the jolly circle.
 It brings to mind how a stranger came to town and in social circles and even the church she attended was cold and unreceptive and the only way to become acquainted was to go half way; and doing that she was dubbed: Mrs. Butt in"
 That's the problem if you go half way they call you "butt-in'.
 But the warning was what was needed and I reckon the Social Cor ner folks will watch out closer for the strange goats hereafter.
 Come again. You are welcome.
