[ 1 ""EARL WALSH' So I Hear WEDNE8DAY. JULY 1, lttl Can't say I never get anything but bills in the mail. Here is a check for $250,000. Trouble is it is marked SAMPLE-DO-NOT- CASH. Oh, I wouldn't think of cashing it! Neither would the bank. Donate to one charity and your name is on every list in the country. _ Some shopper am I! The little woman sent me to the super nfrrket for two items and I got hopelessly lost. Luckily my long time friend Rovena 'Marshall came to my rescue. There is a lot to be said for the old time country stores where a clerk took a can of be^ns off the shelfand put it on the counter in front of you. - Saw a license plate: MARY 28 „ Next year she can make it 29 and holding. Finally had a short visit with the ailing Pastor Herman Graef of Zion Lutheran Church. No way the popular Pastor won't regain his full health. Even .^parishioners in churches { of other denominations have been praying for him individually and during church services. That I like. - Jack Slaughter has been reading some of my old time remedies and those con­ tributed by "M R." and has some good ones to add. Send 'em in, Jack. As if my last column wasn't short enough, some of it was left out! Just an error. Nothing earth shaking. Farmers used to- look for corn to be knee high by the Fourth of July. Hank Tomlinson says it is as high as the table in June. Can't wait to find sweet corn on the stands. Buttered all over. Just the thing for my diet. Whenever there is some doubt about the menu in our house, I always say, "Just give me a hamburger". Bill Miller advises me not to worry about the loss ofcbig league ball games. It seems that Arnold and Leona Rauen decided to attend the Town and Country program at St. Patrick's Church last weekend. On the way out, somebody sold Arnold on the Idea of throwing at the target to dunk Dennis Birmingham in the water tank. On the first throw, he missed by a country mile. Second throw wasn't much better. Three -- and bingo! With Arnold in such pit­ ching form, Bill plans to sign him up, then get Ken Espey to do the catching. A team is in the making. Let me think. Did Bill say Espey would be the catcher or the backstop? Can't reme"ber all the , things Art Martin related after reading our "Way Back When" items. It seems he has an ancient refrigerator. (Or is it an ice box?). " Vacuum cleaner. (Did he say hand powered sweeper or broom?). Am sure he said his lawri" mower is run by power-- his own power. Modern Martin; Do they still have such things as a hammock? You tied it between two trees or from a corner of the house to e' tree. You swayed in the breeze, but they were tricky and tippy.
