From Over the l.lne.
Kditor Times: A few w-eks ago
1 noticed in The Times a note
from ' J<ihI 11 i 11 stating that a friend
that moved from that section about
three years ago un near the line,
was offering ono-lmll of hi- crop to
have it cleaned of grass,
i I was born and raised in trold
liill and lived there long enough
j to learn a good ileal about her people.
They are all right as long as
you live among them and do as
they do, but when you move from
among them and try to puddle
your own canoe, they want to pick
} at you and every fellow toots his
horn, whether right or wrong. In
fact, they seem to want, to pick at
us all along, as I noticed in last
week's Times ihatliold nill claims
we have just finished chopping out
cotton and that we have grass s.x
feet long.
New, when 1 was a boy, 1 was
i taught that, honest confession was
i good for the soul. A part that
has boon said about lis is tine,
and the other part, at the time it
was said, did seem like it ought to
have been true, and we ollVrod no
kick at that time. Our crops are
improving now and are looking as
Well as could bo expected.
