he grabbed a log to keep it from
falling on his son, Bobby. The Oak
is in bad shape, as both radios he
has are on the blink and he can't
hear the news and political views.
Sid Bates was called on by Oaks
son, Brad, to get the tubes perking
again in the music boxes. Sid says
both radios need an oil change, the
valves ground and new head gas
ket and the rattles taken out of the
speakers. What the Oak needs for
the radios is bone doctor.
H. c. Bates was on RH calling on
the Bishop to buy his, the Bishops,
tractor, that made history last sum-
mer travelling to Caldwell and get
ting the Bishop in bitches. Woe is
me, what will happen next.
H. c. Bates has been cutting and
buzz saving wood to smoke his
hams and shoulders.
Wyatt Bates is doing some work
on the Tucker ranch.
WEDNESDAY,: Rex Moore was
tutoring the Watson Hill huckster
bus in these parts. Rex has not for
gotten about my Blackie, gip, get
ting into his huckster wagon and
cleaning up all but getting much
needed chew of tobacco to top off
the feed
Freddie Oliver was back scratch
ing the roads in these parts. The
roads had gotten pretty we'll in the
rut, but it has been a bad winter
Sid Bates called on the Oak Hague
to see how the game back is coming
Oak is still confined to the house
and continues to read his bird book
Macarthur steps into the presiden-
tial pictures and upSets all the apple
carts of prediction. 1t could be that
slow-motion Macarthur is what this
country needs. We've been running
in high gear too long. It's time to
back up, turn around and travel
back on the road to the days when
we had only thirteen states. If Nc
Arthur can engineer the United
States as well as he has Japan and
do as good job, he is the man for
president. We now prophecy it will
be either Macarthur or Dewey. We
prophecy that New Deal has the
democratic party busted wide open,
and toothpicks won't hold it to-
gether This is Leap year, whistle
pig year and republican year.
This typist received a special call
to appear in Caldwell. No date has
been set for the special meeting (not
FFPA). After the cork has been
popped from this bottle of potion,
and we sniff and taste it, then we
will try to tell you something about
it in these columns, but we pro-
phecy it is going to have vocifer-
Gus odor and the aftertaste will have
a peculiar tWang Watch these COL
umns for the Big Story 1t will out
shine the mystery ghost of Mud
gulch and kill it completely.
THURSDAY: The Duchess was an
early morning caller on the Oak
Hague household. The Oak went to
Caldwell to have his spinal column,
vertebra adjusted and looked after.
The OAK just missed having brok-
en- back by hair and we think the
Oak deserves hero medal and per-
sonal mention. Only quick thinking
and action saved his son, Bobby,
from being crushed to death. Har-
ley Bates was on BH roads driving
his puddlesplasher.
Audrey Albreton, wife of Boob,
is visiting with her father and
mother, Harley and Maud Bates. We
have just received tip, that Harley
is now a Journal reader, happy
reading Brother Harley.
ELEVENTH HOUR JOTTINGS:
Willscreek GPM, your said books,
Ornithology and Zoology, are OK to
certain point, however, they won't
get your corn in the ground early
and get it shucked on time. You will
never be able to keep up with the
Jones'ies with such literature. Read
