Paper from the Old Home
Town |
By Mrs. Effie Crawford, of Indianola, |
Jowa.
Talk avout your literature |
And papers up-to-date, |
About tne legislature i
And doin's, through the State—
To me they ain't comparin’ |
Though 1 look the world aroun’ i
To the little newsy paper
From the old home town.
There's somethin’ brewin’ in the air
Ihe day the paper comes;
Ma she goes about her work
And either sings or hums—
But I just get so restless
Till the postman brings it down,
And I'm first to grad the paper
From the old home town.
Ma comes into the settin’ room
And lets the dishes go
And listens while I read about
The folks we used to know,
For births and deaths and land deals
And weddin’'s, too, abound—
All are mighty interestin’
From the old home town.
I know it ain't so classical
As these big dailies are,
That tell about the prize fights
And latest movie star,
But jist for my enjoyment
There's nothin’ I have found
Like the little newsy paper
From the old home town.

axes that were
manufactured out at “Boiling

| For several years before March 29,
1930, when “Uncle Jimmy” ventured
into the “Great Unguessed” he was
unable to read, but he wanted the
Watchman and it was read to him

fell into his final sleep. Then we
expected that another tie that has
bound the Watchman to the friends
of probably sixty-five or more years

—All these soft, squashy clothes
make you think of the nursery. The
newest sweaters are short-waisted
and hand-knit like the hug-me-tights
we wore when we were babies, and
some of the printed evening dresses
have little-girl puff sleevs. When
we come out of the sea in our hand-
knit maillots, we tug on jersey trous-
ers and linen sun hats like those of
the children who are building castles
in the sand.
We are putting on white dimities
for supper and setting them off with
the chic, incongruous glitter of ruby
and diamond clips. Milk is com-
peting with tails, and erudite
botanical terms are replacing the ar-
got of the town. r gardening

workman's blouses, and mammoth
cotton gloves. We are fanatics about

making Culbertsons. This is a sum-
mer of simpler pleasures, simpler

ful with exercise, We are reviving |
