theirs got fighting mad when we
gathered for our reegrlar help
ing of fish and beer last Satur-
day night. This brother said that
he had been looking around a
little checking up on first one
thing then another, and he was
downright knocked off his feet
when he found out the score on
lot of the brothers and sisters
from both sides of the fence in
this here city of ours. YasSuh !.
This brother said that he found
that there was a whole lot of folks
living in our community that didn' t
never think ABOUT nobody but
themselves and of how much mon
ey they could drain off the COM
munity for their own welfare
He said they never thought il
was their duty TO give anything
back to the community or con-
tribute to its welfare in any way,
ali they wanted to d owas to drain
off every dollar they could for
number one and leave it up to
somebody else to give money for
the sick and the needy and the
boy scouts and the girl scouts
and the family service and stuff
as that. He said that the only
place those people took money
to was the bank and that no mat
ter how much they were worth on
a bank book they wasn't worth
two cents to the community. He
went on to say that the community
community would be a whole lot
better off if them kind of folks
would pack up their little stuff
and get it on out Of town and
make room FIR somebody that's
going to have a sence of respon-
sibility toward the welfare of the
town that they live in. He said
that the kind of peOlpe he was
talking about wasn't nothing but
parasites that drained away the
munity and never gave it moth
ING in return. He said that these
people he was talking about was
both black and white. You Know;
MAYBE THAT BROTHER
WAS TALKING ABOUT YOU. =.
WE WAS READING Where
some fellow took his wife by the
heels and pounded a carpet down
with her head. 1t is an accepted
fact that women are hard headed,
but we are reluctant to believe
that they are to be compared with
the standard size hammer. ;.
