Chicky- Chicky- Chicky
One of our notorious bootleggers
on the outskirts of Quality Hill was
called on the other day to do some
quick thinking, las if that would
throw off suspicion.)
A quantity of corn fell off the truck
and into the middle of the road just
as the driver was turning into the
driveway of this Oakland "citizen."
He knew the neighbors all had their
eyes stuck out of the windows, so he
gathered in the spilled corn and
started calling his chickens. Too bad
he had no chickens.
And when these Oakland bootleg
gers are able to lay out 1000 in cash,
in case they wish to purchase proper
ty, it makes the efforts of the honest
people Of town look sick. These boot
leggers seem to have all the soft
Schnapps.
Over in West Virginia they raid five
counties and arrest more than $50
men on charges connected with, moon
shine liquor. Over here in Maryland
they could raid one Western Mary
land county and get that many. But.
the suspense of waiting is terrible.
Have you noticed Alva Gortner,
Alvey Martin, Harry Stemple, Dave
Walter, Walter Hardesty, Ed Kahl
and lot of others lately. They're
all steamed up about the Labor Day
picnic-and they ought to be. There's
going to be a crowd there for them
to take care of, that is, if they are
all of the same opinion as Scoop.
Scoop advises everybody to be
there.
An Oakland man, who recently re-
turned from the hospital after being
sawed, slit and hacked, is of the opin-
ion that it is better to be inspected
when suspected, than to be dissected
when infected.
