the birth of Mary Elizabeth

83 years young when she

When interviewed. the fol-
lowing notes We're made by the
writer
She joined Bethel Method
list Church at the age of l3 in
1890. while Rev. Tom Brown
ing was pastor"
"On February &. 1908. she
became the wife OF George NJ.
Todd. They became the par
entS of two children who are
still living. Mrs. Bertha Mae
Garrell. Whiteville: and Mrs.
Eva Norris of Mollie, with who
Aunt Molly resides"
Asked about her favorite
Bible passage, she replied like
Uncle Jim, mo favorie: /
love them ALI" And her fav-
oritc hymn was found TO be
What a Friend We Have In
Jesus"
Aunt Molly is still active in
her church and home life. She
cooks, SCwS, raises her chick

She attended the Bethel
school even today reminisceS
about her school days. especi-
ally the eighth grade when she
was taught by a Miss Russ.
Again, like Uncle Jim. one
OF ihe most tragic periods OF
her life was when a son was
killed in an automobile acci-
dent in 1890.
1t was the will of Bethel and
Mollie people that these few
notes be recorded, for il is felt

FAMOUS FABLES
BY E. e. EDGAR

CURIOSITY: Hum orist-
adventurer wilson Miner
was an accomplished card
shark. who was rarely hested
at high stakes poker.
One night, in an Alaska
saloon, Miner suggested q
game to an innocent looking
stranger who was flashing q
roll Of bills. Mizner let the
other win for the first hour.
The stakes became higher and.
higher. Then Miner moved
in for the kill. He dealt q
hand calculated to. separate
the stranger from his bank
roll.
After q furry Of raising
and re-raising. there was
$4,000 in the pot. Mizner laid
down four kings and reached
for the money. The other
laid down four aces.
For a split second, Mizner
hesitated. Then he pushed
the money back.
TITS all yours. stranger"
he said. Then. as one crafts
man to another, he added,
"Tell me. what did you do
with the four queens ! dealt
you?"

gotten my hands on. I was
the kind Of oddball who didn't
suffer from status. I didn't
care who saw me working In
coveralls. I was the kind who
would give up the chance Of
a $5,000-a-year job. which I
could have landed, in order to
make the Government pay
me my Social Security, which
I had paid for. So ! decided
to go to work in q filling Sta
ton because ! liked people.
And I decided to accept only
$50 a week so ! could still get
my Social Security. :"
WHAT DOES THIS add up
to? It adds up to the propo-
sition that everybody Is
wrong-including Mr.. Burns
about what you should do
when. you retire. Only you
can know what is good for
you and what you want.

How to TY Il Il.
STOP KILLING
YOURSELF
Why Try to Paint the Lily?
BY DR.. PETER .. sTElNcsoAN

Doctors 60 to doctors:
lawyers go to lawyers; and
columnists often 90 to COLI
umnists.
Let me enlarge. Probably
you have heard-and it's
true-thst people who write
have o passion for reading.
To them the printed word is
like food for the starved and
water for the thirsty. (
However. although they
may read everything within
eye-range, they (like you)
have discrimination. They
don't LIKE everything they
read.
FOR EXAMPLE, consider
my reason for starting of on
this non-medical tangent to-
day., The spark was ignited
by one OF my favorite COL
umnists. I read his column
every day. I feel the day is
incomplete when I have oc.
casion to miss it.
Today he said something
with which I disagree. Ordi-
narily you can't discover one
crack of weakness in his
armor Of logic. To my way of
thinking it's big enough to
walk through today. See
what you think about 1t.
In effect. here's what he
said. II make it a rule to use
quotes sparingly. Whenever I
do so, about two lines is my
limit. I don't think a colum-
mist has the right to take the
lazy way out and fill his col
umn with a long quotation.
It went something like that.
Why do I disagree? Every
columnist should feel a close
kinship with his readers. II
ne doesn't. he fails in his job.
Only when there Is such a
relationship is it possible to
know what interests them
and what doesn't. You can
