PARISH STREET SATURDAY
NIGHT: | heard from UP in the
delta the other day that Amt Hag-
gar's Chilluns have done took a
step to dispute the idea what | al
ways felt that other folks had that
Amt Haggar's Chilluns, specially
them that's down here below the
cotton and magnolia line, got bet
ter kidneys and bladders than any
other human animal anywhere on
earth, seeing that we was figured
to be able to travel from Memphis
to New Orleans with out stopping
for the same general purpose as
other humans unless we happened
to know somebody, or could find
convenient clump of bushes long
side the road. From what | heard
about what was going on it looks
lack some of the members of the
Tribe is publishing the fact that
we got kidneys and bladders sub
ject to the same kinda spasms
lack everybody else by putting out
some signs that says, "dont buy
know gas where you cant use the
rest room," seeing as it is that tress
and clumps of bushes is Citing
scaser and scaser up that away
on account of the land teing TAX
ing up by cotton planting, with all
that was left and some more being
took up by rice and cattle and all
them other Investigations includ-
ing making room for mechanical
plows, cotton pickers, flame throw
ers and all them other kinda farm
mechkanisations When | was
setting down over my Fish and
Beer | noted by the conversession
that some of US folks from up that
way had wondered down this way
and was talking about what was
going on near as | could git
it it looks lack some of the "BIG
WHY-FOLKS" is done got mad
cause some of US done got up and
says that us's kidneys and bladders
is beginning to git a Little weak
from the long strain and says that
we's now coming to the shoW-nuff
wrong thing by us calling for a
"BOY-CART" on them filing sta
ton where the folks think we
order done stopped in the bushes
jest 'afore we got there . Well,
from what | heard, that amt the
way US feels about what's going
on. AS one Brother said, amt Hag
gar's Chilluns done found out that
all the folks in the whole round
world is holding up and bowling
down too and honoring the Ameri-
can dollars, and in dis hyar matter
Amt Haggar's Chullins amt stud
ding bout no "BOY CART, Deys
Jest tired Of letting the American
dollar keep on Citing insulted in
they hands .. :.

TIGER FOOTBALL FROM

Morris Brown Teams rep | know
that all the old Jackson College
fans will be saying that the Tig-

threat keeping the other folks
from scoring when he could do a
better Job at scoring himself and
leave the defensive job tc man
of different spirit.
