CRITICISMS IN GENERAL (Contributed) may be right and the other wrong, and then again the fellow right and we wrong, the point of view. Strawberries, raspberries, apples and plums are pretty well gone boys. What’s next. We fellow other All in Why do the people crowd in and about the business places? Someone may want to go inside and do a little shopping.

Try courtesy it works both ways. The true measure of man is his output, not his income. A smile, a look from the eye, or just a handclasp may tell more than vohimns to the understanding mind and heart. Just a reminder: That stuff you saw falling from the clouds last week was RAIN. When we const act as we wish, we must act as we can. Nothing is more terrible than t-o see ignorance in action. Doing, doing, done. Mr, W. R.
