GRANDPARENTS GALORE From Pickens Sentinel. A dispatch from Arkadelphia, Ark., appearing in the daily papers last week tells of two Arkansas chil dren having six grandparents until recently when one of the grand mothers died, leaving the children with only five grandmothers. The J!- lL.*- J uifcpaicn says una is a record. This record can be beaten right here in Easley. The two children of Mr and Mrs. Gary Hiott, of Eeasley have ten living grandparents, as fol lows: Two grandmothers, three great-grand mothers and one great great-grandmother, two grandfa thers and two great-grandfathers. If Arkadelphia or any other place can beat this we would like to hear from them. HM'HJ i n !- i h [PANY Many Dep'ts e realize that / off.
