Archbishop Bates,

everyone of importance is making
doughnuts, crullers or curleys, with
sugar coating, we mean. Everyone
of Importance, is making doughnuts,
GPM, do you like them, yum yum.
Stephens reports they still punch
holes in the ears of their hounddogs
and hogs, to get them off the hills,
up there in Monroe county, now
what have you to say GPM.
WE SEE WHERE Gov. Herbert is
coming to Caldwell, January 13, we
will try to meet him there and give
him some whistlepigs for we'd
ding present. From the way it looks
from here, now, we will be forced
to vote for Governor Herbert, as
yet, there are no worthwhile op
ponents, they so far are worse than
the Herbert. Something is wrong
somewhere, the Governors pants
are either too big or too small, he
should get a brain trust to advise
him.
WE JUST RECEIVED word from
Don Groves and wife. Don is in the
construction business and works
every night. | bet he wishes he was
coon or fox hunting back on the
Ohio hill We are glad to know they
receive the journal and get all
the news. His wife says she gets
kick out of my column and Don says
it is like getting a letter from home,
They report they have been having
a lot of fog and very little rain. They
live at Martinez, California. Duke
did not think much of the fight pic
lures, the other picture, shocked his
modesty.
Rex Moore and this inkspot are
at loggerheadS. Rex was visiting the
Duke and my foxhound, Blackie
| got into the Huckster wagon while
Rex was absent. She had cleaned
up everything in the cereal and
! breakfast food line, and when Rex
went out to the truck, she was just
opening a package of chewing to-
bacco to take a chew Rex said if
he could of gotten hold of her, there
in the world. She is undamaged, but
full of cookies. Oh me, what will
| happen next.
DALLAS BOND has about recov-
cred from his speechlessness and
cold, it seems the Gillespie Drug
Store druggist mixed up some kind
of concoction, purchased by Oak
Hague for Dallas, that knocked the
cold bluey. Evelyn says he jumped
upon the bed post and crew the next
morning, like a rooster. So, it must
pay to shop at Gillespie's. Think I
will try them, myself, and see if
| they can make ne crow. The Ohio
Fuel Co. truck from Barnesville was
on Bates Hill road Tuesday. The big
| Standard Oil truck from Caldwell
was in these parts distributing gas
oline, oil and coal oil to the farmers.
| There are several tractors in these
parts. We are still looking for 800 x
| 20 tires, two used ones. The trac-
tor is layed up until we can take the
oil pan down and tighten up loose
rod. Marie sent Lola bag of dough
nut holes by the Oak. Oak is now
full of holes and don't know how
to get rid of them. The Duke hear
ing organ is playing tunes again. He
thinks he will have to see a doctor
again. Harley Bates says there
should be something done about the
street cars and automobiles taking
up all the street in Wheeling, anC
those esculators should stop so one
can get aboard, then fellow Woulc
, not fall down and go boom.
POLITICS ARE QUIET right now
there is always a quiet spell jus
before a big storm breaks forth il
all her fury. Some of the candidate
, are stepping around like tomcats
step on their tails and they squal
like wild ones. Some of them re
mind one of Banta roosters, they
can crow awful loud, but too little
) to do much. Is the name 'Torok" ;
Chinese or japanese name. 1t sound
worse than a darkhorse to us. Can
the democrats find timber with bet
