Meigs
Looking Around

Monday of last week we looked
New Lexington over We found the
city full of business-no vacant
rooms. We met our friend and for
mer employer, Chas. Nash, oil and
gas man. He informed us that the
oil business is very quiet. We were
not in the city long until we be-
gan to receive invitations to vote
for their candidates. On account
of the fact that they are holding
their election the same day as ours
here in Morgan, we had to decline.
On Tuesday we boarded the Dale
Miller milk truck at our gate-but
first let us tell you Dale had started
from Pennsville early in the morn
ing, coming to McConnelsville, then
out to the VIM. Shilling farm, then
across to past j. L. Glenn's, up the
creek on the east side to rotue 78,
then across and down on the west
side and back, then on 78 to Meigs
cemetery and up to our abode by
the time we had our chores finish
ed, used the safety and changed
our garments. He had already un-
loaded many cans of clabber and
loaded cans of whole milk in their
place. From here we headed to-
ward McCOnnelsville, not leaving the
state highway very far at any time.
After we left Malta he headed out
on road that we were not aware
was on the map. Then we headed
toward Bremen, with short run
offs from the state highway until
we reached New Lexington. From
there on we were a stranger, and
the scenes became not only numer-
GUS but were mportant-Judge
Nell Underwood farm, tile plants,
and coal mines. We could only get
a glimpse of the state brick plant
out from Junction City. Then we
reached our destination, Bremen,
where is located the Pickerington
