Smyrna times., 1942-10-29

The message above was written
on post card. No usual post card
to be sure. On the opposite side
from the writing appeared pic
ture of the residence of one Dor
othy Lamour, Beverly Hills, Cali
fornia. This palacial residence is
made all the more noticeable by a
bust picture of Dorothy Lamour
herself appearing in the upper left
hand corner. 1t is to this young
lady that Willard has made refer
ence. 1t is quite apparent that the
young mans fancies are running
to the opposite sex-as it were.
And, is the boy ambitious? We
ask you?
Better reef the main sail and lay
your ship close to the wind, Deak.
One good stiff breeze might found
er you, and lay you on beams end.
Could it be possible that coca cola
would give you such ideas? If so,
many of our town folk would i'm
mediately start the habit. Smooth
sailing to you Willard, and may
your ship always weather the
storm, says Dribbles.

Boy!
Dot sure has a pretty place, and

LIST PURCHASES
Persons already buying a stip-
ulated amount of bonds and
those on the payroll deduction

Actually, we have cashed
only one per cent of our sales
totals and most of those bonds
were bought at other places"
Bannow said.

man, and County Treasurer Carl

action came after Harold Rein

that Dixon tempered with his
