THE LOWDOWN
FROM HICKORY GROVE

For quite while we been 60
ing through a session where our
head men there on the windy
Potomac telling us we gotta do
this or do that or we cannot sur
vive. Machinery is running US,
they say-and our frontiers are
gone-and we better pull back
into our shell and just let the
Govt. do everything for us.
We are a nation of suckers.
Mr.. Hitler says if you tell peo-
pie something often enough. they
will get to believing it.
We been acting like the guy
who lets his wife buy his hats
for him.
The good lady went into the
store and says, I want a new hat
for my husband. And the clerk
says, yes mann, and he got the
hat and wrapped it up. But the
lady was non-p1ussed. and she
says, what size is the hat-you
didn't ask me what size / want
ed. And the clerk says, it is a
6 and a quarter. All men, he
says, who let their wife buy his
hat. wear a 6 and one quarter.
Yours with with the down,
10 SIERRA.

BEFORE WAR
We, men, are brothers,
And in eternal love we stand,
Shoulder to shoulder with all the
Others. loI 'DEBe
Safe in the hollow of His hand;
The Prince of Peace.
DURING WAR
4 will not eat from an enemy
spoon,
The stalwart patroit cries.
4 swear by the light of yon full
moon,
Wen fight till the last man dies;
We viii not cease.
AFTER WAR
Comrades all, the black or white.
This blood-drenched field, their
resting place.
To them we raise this eternal
light,
In loving remembrance of their
grace;
They brought US Peace.

Vivien Leigh Admits Her Hardest Job In
"GOne With The Wind" Was
puIIiuo A Triouor
Pulling A Trigger

1T was suddenly afraid the
gun might be loaded, Miss
Leigh said afterward. Il know
now how it must feel to be a
killer. There was a soldier COM
ing upstairS-I realized it was
MIR. Paul Hurst. But when
pointed my pistol at him, and
pulled the trigger, the idea burst
in my mind like a balloon-may-
be there was bullet in it,
1T took every ounce of will
power l had to pull the trigger.
and when the blank went off
harmleSsly, my knees went 50
weak l almost sat down.
A Tough Role
A few days previously, Miss
Leigh had run between two Ca
reening gun carriages, pulled by
galloping horses. The heavy Gals
sons missed her by inches, and
the work of running through
deep dust, with hOopskirtS inn
peding her, greatly fatigued the
l03-pound star.
Yet she says she was more
exhausted from the mental strain
of pointing her pistol at Hurst
and pulling the trigger than by
running up and down the streets
of the big Atlanta set .f
Il was only able to do. it be-
cause | fixed my eyes on the pis-
tol in his belt, and imagined him
pointing it at me-, she said.
