NIGHT: "It's a pc wind that never
changes" is the way | used to hear
the thing put by my grandma when
| was a boy, and know now as
learned long time ago that she
was giving vent to the wisdom and
philosophy that have come down
through time and the ages in the
lore and tradition of the Tribe of
Haggar. The same idea has been
transmitted to posterity, 'mongst
those of a diffent in express
sions that have become a part Of
the classic tradition, and because
of such expressions in times of
great concern and forebodings
folks have been able to look back
on such sayings and find the new
courage and new hope on which
progress is made heard some
frustrated members Of the Tribe of
Haggar lamenting over what's
wrong in the world as it affects
Amt Haggars Chilluns while | was
eating my fish and drinking my
beer, and the way they were talk
ing about things and a-going on
they'd reached the end of the road
as far as they were concerned.
The more l listened to their con-
versation the more it dawned on
me that they hadn't never heard
of that fellow, in in dire strait
out on that lake that day, with
faith and future CT his country at
stake, in the face of what looked
like hopeless case, kept saying
Don't Give Up The Ship" and as
far as that remark is concerned
there may be those who'll say that
Amt Haggar's Chillun don't know
too much about history noways,
which may all be true, but what
started out to say is this, When
every my grandma used to talk she
put history, philosophy, tradition,
wisdom, and understanding in a
fewer words than I've ever been
able to find in any kinda book,
cept'n of course the BIBLE, which
was my grandma's favorite book
. Looking back to her. when
ever the breaks get tough, and
everything suddenly ecome $
cloudy and foreboding, I just keep
plugging away Remembering
all the time that my grandma used
tc say and it's still good adj
vice for Amt Haggar's Chilun
everywhere . IT'S A Pc WIND
THAT NEVER CHANGES.

Some no good so-and-so broke in
the office of the Jackson Advocate

US anything that will help catch
the thief and get back our fan

else but us will know how we
found out. This buzzard also broke
into Lawyer Tharp's office and
took small fountain pen desk-set,

forget about the $500 reward for
the light blue, 12-inch Westing-
