flat rock news
,.. . mrs, audie jonea got a letter from
her darter, ettie, who went off to
college last September and she does
not understand same and noboddy in
flat rock can read t>he language to
her. it says: "deer ma: i had zams
yestiddy, made math o. k., flunked
on fiat, fell down on gom, hit the
cinders at 345, weigh 118?trimmed
for jim, getting ulong fine, send a
"v" for home ecx. love from ettie".
it sounds like french to me.t
....we are glad to welcome the ellison
fanityy back into our midst after
a try out in floridy in the grape
fruit bizness. they lost ever thing
they carried down there onner count
of hoover's rned fly and 400f to boot
that he borried off of the hank befoar
It went ker-fluey allso. He says
tl-cent cotton is good enuff for him
and jane from now on. he lust 2
sons and a mother-in-law by matrimony
while away and he says that
cut his expenses down a right smart,
sallie married money.
. ...fho all-nite garrage has knocked
off, sold out his tools, closed his
shop and left friday night owing
everboddy excepp the chairv stores,
he tried to. keep up henry ford's
skedule of shop prices and as the
publick could ?6t pay name, ha diddent
yet anything' to do but play
checker? the last 2 months of his life
in flat rock, aevral 'of the grocery
stoats are planning to send a search
warrant after him \if he can be located
dead or alive?* he got yore
corry spondent for ci>7' for a nice
beef roast on creddick. he should be
ketched.
....something broke out in scholl a
bout 2 weeks ago and it has spread
to nearly every fantbly in the community.
dr. hart ^oes not seein to
know egzactly what the new mallady
is, but he is ordering sulphur by
thp keg, as it starts betwixt the
fingers, and looks like heat, but
hcut do not coine on annyboddy excepp
in hot weather, tberefoar, he
must be wrong, the scholl" teecher
ketched* it amongst the first and
she took up wearing gloves right off.
some of the folk think it ought to
be quarrintecned from the others who
do not scorn to have same.
f
mr. ostra rangle is getting over the
jake parallisis and is offering a nice
sqt of cypress crutthes for -sail, or
will swap for a stout walking stick,
a? he can get along on same fairly
well now and does not hafter drag
his Teet to ann? great extent, he
ay* he ketched it accidently, as he
bought a bottle of extract at a atoar
for his wife^fcnd tasted it on the way
h^nie and it was something else'ind
he Js talking about suing the man
for malfeasance in offis that sold it
to him. (mr. editor if anything else
happen*, i will rite or foam it in tomorrow.
J hear the rfd a blowinj

social news fjront''flat rock
?....the new citty counsel mot last
thursday night and papsed a law
forbidding cows to live within the
copperate limits of our town, and
unny person violating this law will
have his cow seized and possessed
and hell at the citty hall till her
fine is paid which is 6$ for the first
offense and 1$ for extry cows over
one. they need not run for offis no
more, as this has ruinjt them, (for
sale 2 nice cows fresh in last year,
mike Clerk, rfd.)
....the ladies aid of rehober met at
mrs. janie stallings pallatia! home at
their last meeting and raised c76 in
regular monthly dues, and it will be
sent to the furrin mission nerry in
jappan where she is laboring to savo
lost souls which the heathens 'have
been carrying around in their harts
for thousands of years.they said this
money Was enuff to feed 2 little or
phans ? weeks, and it was enjoyed
by all.
....the citiaons of flat rock are havring'
something to say about^the
prospects of hawing a new postmaster
befoar verry long, it seems that
ed. w. whissonant, the pressent encumbrance,
failed to send in his donation
to tthe republican party and
that might, unfit him to serve the
next term, they are not fetching as
much 'as they were 2 years ago. a ,
nice post office was sold in our sister state
not long ago for 100$. that
same post otffip would of fetched
750$ befoar hoover prosperity set in.
....the poultry bizness is picking up
I to some1 extent in our tpidst, due, ,
possibly, to low price of cotton and
high price eggs. mr. green sold a
bale of cotton last week for 22$ and '
his wife sold 10 heng and; 10 dozen
eggs for 23$, so you see, friends, a
few hehs and roosters will pay-a man
much better than a farm and he do
not have to pay no taxes on poultry,
bees is allso springing up here and
tbere, and it wont be long befoar
you can build a wall around flat rock,
anil we can live if we can get some ,
gassoleen piped in ever now and then,
hurrah for chickens!
....our pasture has withdrawn ~ his
ressignation and will continue to
preach on at rehober if the deacons
will let him. he got a call up in n. c.
but after trying out the new field,
he changed his mind and has come
back to us. * while he was gone, the
members made up their minds to go
pasture-less till agriculture fetched
higher prices, and it will no doubt
be a hard job for him to be -reconsidered,
as he has forfitted his rights
to continue on, and we. might as well
be vacant as have him. (p. s. i wiil
rite or foam in the ballance of the
news tomorrow.)
