Keep Healthy

Spring is just around the
corner and Old Man Wealth
er is apt to go on a ram
page almost any time.
One of Newark's biggest
assets is the health of her
people. In this emergency
one of the most important
matters is work we do from
day to day. We must do
our regular jobs well and
expediently. We must be
able to do many things such
as civilian defense, over and
above our normal pursuits.
There will be a constant
drain upon our physical,
mental and moral resources.
To meet the demands of
our country, our state and
our city we must be fit.
Plenty of good healthful
exercise, dry feet, required
hours of sleep and a reason
able diet will help keep us in
proper condition.
To be sure we are not
athletes. We are not going
to participate in football,
basketball or baseball con-
tests. But we must clear
our minds of as much use
less thinking and worrying
as possible. During the
time we have free from our
regular tasks we should put
our minds to work and think
clearly of the problem be-
fore. We must cast aside
prejudices and hokum. We
must get down to brass
tacks.
Newark people have nev-
er been prone to go off at
tangents. For the most
part we have been on the
matter of fact side. Some
times perhaps we have been
too much that way.
But right now is a good
time to keep our chins up.
There is a job to be done,
and we know that Newark
people are ready, willing
and capable of doing it, and
doing it we'll.

THE ROLLING CORRESPONDENT

Mrs. Jean Eddleblute and little
daughter, Ellen Joyce, of Stockport,
left Thursday evening of last week
for Baltimore, Md, to join their
husband and father, Blaine Eddie
blute, who has employment there.
1t was with sorrow we learned
of the death of our former neigh
Dor, Mrs Frances Gray, and regret
we were unable to attend the fu-
neral service.
Who was it that told us about
our being 5000 miles from the
war? So far as the distance is con-
cerned, the ocean is not as much OF
a barrier in this war as the Po-
tomac river was in the Revolution
ary.
We are getting acclimated. We
find the folks here at Stockport are
very kind We have heard that in
some villages there are factions. So
far we have not found but one
here. While they don't all go to
the same church on Sunday, vote
the same ticket at election time
they seem united in march to make
it a progressive town. We hope
they will continue. While our legs
are not so short, we don't want to
straddle the fence. By the way
straddling the fence isn't what il
used to be.
Linley Pierpoint, World war vet
eran, of Stockport, remains serious
ly i'll, being confined to his bed a
good part of the timc.
We find that some restaurants
out of the county bring the sugar
for your coffee in envelopes, which
made us think of Sen Sen which

smell of onions, and so on, when
coming back to Morgan county and
finding a shaker on the table, we
decided it was us who was the con-
servationist-or perhaps it was the
Boss as the sugar cost him five
cents. 1t is great to live in Amer
ica-if we don't have to do with
out.
At Reinersville we found V. b.
Walters, who is one of the best
newspaper men in the state, but
who doesn't like to do it. After we
had inquired in two counties for
farm maps of Morgan county, and
found they didn't have them, then
looked over the map Vic had made
of Manchester and surrounding ter
ritory, we wondered why we
couldn't have been smart and good
looking.
As We Went BY
We didn't have time to stop at
the Burlingame green house, where
we always see something worth
while, and never fail to take look
at the big lemons. The old apple
tree that Mr. Nichols tied the Shen-
andoah to, is gone. We often Won
der why there hasn't been a mark
er, or sign placed there telling
folks who go that way where 1t
was. AS we passed the Valley Hills
Rest Home Friday night We were
led to believe from the way the
buildings were lighted up that they
mus be caring for a lot of folks.
Some day we will stop and then
tell you more.
Mrs. Dean Hancher, Of Bristol,
has two turkey hens that are lay
ing.
