The police were called not to watch Neuman’'s cabbage patch as there is none to watch. J They were called to watch ‘Neu- man’s orchard nights before to keep + the high school kids from pulling up Art’s poison signs that surround our orchard. These are state de- manded. The first night we put young deer; light rain coat and white hair, probably some sort of head gear, since he is too agile to be middle aged; noisy in his goings about with a special yen for roofs and porches; doesn’t mind working in the light of the moon or the street light; never seems to have a car; brazen enough to turn on the electricity when he finds no one home; overlooks money that he stumbles over; pretty well completes his operations between eleven and five. What is he after? How does he manage to elude the police who are supposed to be patrolling the roads on the kill or to outstrip them in a foot race! One officer says, “Oh he’s just a nut. Don’t be afraid of him!” Who isn’t afraid of a “nut”? HOMAGE TO STEPHEN FOSTER It is a trifle ironic but rewarding for the millions who love and sing his songs that Stephen Foster, who died a century ago this year with just 38 cents in his purse, is honored now with so many splendid memorials. If you are in Bardstown, Kentucky, you can visit the beautiful mansion where a dubious legend says Foster may have spent part of his honeymoon but which he defi- nitely visited during his life because it was owned by his relatives. This shrine is called “My Old Kentucky Home.” If you are in Pittsburgh, you can tour the Stephen Foster Memorial at the University of Pittsburgh. There you can see the vast collection of Foster material collected by the late Josiah Kirby Lilly of Indianapolis. This in- cludes first printings of Foster's 201 known songs and all manner of relics, including the purse with the 38 cents. If you visit northern Florida, you can see the most spectacular Stephen Foster Memorial of all “way down the Suwannee River.” Rising in the Okefenokee swamp of Georgia, this stream winds through wooded country in north and west Florida, then flows into the Gulf of Mex- ico. Another Suwannee, the legendary river of Stephen Foster’s music, has been described as rising “in the highest mountains of the human soul . . . flowing through the pleasant, sunny vales of memory . . . and emptying into the glorious oceans of unfilled dreams.” These two streams figuratively merge at White Springs, where Highway 41 crosses the actual river and not far from interstate routes 10 and 75, to provide a fit- ting setting for Florida’s tribute to the composer. This is a park with both a museum and a 200-foot, 97-bell carillon tower. Four concerts are presented daily at the state-owned and operated memorial. Entertainment includes Suwan- nee River boat rides, a Conestoga Wagon tour on park trails, and both covered and uncovered picnic areas. There also are historical musical instruments and animated, three dimensional dioramas. Once a year they choose a new “Jeannie With the Light Brown Hair” to preside at a ball. It is too bad that Foster didnt live to see it. di them up some one pulled the stakes out. : All through the orchard it is sprayed with rat and mice poison. If the kids should eat those’ apples it could be dangerous; so all farmers’ take state precautions for safety to trespassers. I called the junioriand | senior high schools and asked the principals to announce this warn- ing all over the school system. If the police had said they were asked to patrol our orchard against ripping up those poison ‘signs it would have helped through the hunting season as well. The farmers have to pay hun- dreds of dollars a year just to keep people off their property and then there are claims when they do and people get hurt. Things can’t get much worse for we are no longer free people. Thanks, Jennie Neuman. . This is VETERANS DAY This is the day when somber mem'ries Crowd the mind, the day when war’s futility Is underlined. As bugles blow again their sad farewell, In Arlington, in fields where poppies blow, “Across the bleak hills that show The scars from war's remembered hell! This is the day of memories that wh “Bless and burn.” thoughts of “Blood and Sweat and Tears” Know brief return. As, faintly echoing across the years, The ghostly sounds of battle rise and fall O’er bloodu beach and over mountains tall— And, on this day stir vague and anxious fears!
