Edgar B. Feagle Garden Club Making Plans To Erect
Died Saturday Plaques Showing City As Bird Haven
By J. M. ELEAZER
My coloivd playmaO . X• ■ K* . aii<l
I had koio' down tho path ttbout
a <iu;trter of a milo to tin atioo.--
tral hoitio to soo them shoot
some new lireworks at ( hristinas
time. They had been hi'onuht h>
some <h the kinneiy Horn a far
place.
We arrived at dusk. They said
it wasn’t dark enough yet to shoot
’em. Supper was ready. So a
cousin, with a voice like a fop.
horn, hollered up tin* vaHoy tiiat
we were staying for supper. I
remember hearing the faint re
ply, “All right.’’ and how the
call had echoed through the
hills.
The usual feast that marked
every Christinas-time meal was
enjoyed. 15ut good food wa> not
new to us at that season, and
our thoughts were on those new
fireworks.
After supper it was good dark.
Some of the older folks shot the
fireworks for us. They didn’t
trust those new sorts with the
kids. One sprayed up like a
tree of lire, and the skyrockets
exploded into stars. It was all
wonderful to us. We picked up
and treasured the spent cartridges
and paper cones.
After that we played hide
among the shrubs, chicken coops,
buggies, wash pots, and the like
there around the house. A Lan
tern on the porch enabled us to
see faintly. But it was all right.
For folks had good night eyes
then.
We played until about 9:.10.
while the grown folks played set
back by a roaring fire there in
the big living room. We could
see the sparks roar from the
chimney when they threw on
another log or pushed the chunks
together. Several of the smaller
kids got cold and started to
whimper. We made them go in
side and warm. But they didn’t
stay long. We lived rather scat
tered through the stone hills, and
•young’uns didn’t get a chance to
play out at night much.
I started to tell you about our
trip back home. But space is
gone. That will have to come
next week.

Lagging;
Cooperate
Although figures were not
available yesterday (Wednesday),
Cliff Graham, secretary of the
chamber of commerce, said the
fund drive for Community Chest
was lagging. According to in
complete reports from the ad
vance gift comjnittee, which be
gan solicitations last Monday, con
tributions were about the same
as last year. The chest is at
tempting to raise approximately
twenty-five percent more money
in this year’s drive. Two agencies
have been added to the chest,
USO and Cancer, thereby creating
a need for additional funds.
Mr. Graham said that if the
campaign this year is ■successful,
he believes that all agencies will
come under the Red Feather ef
fort next year. He pointed out
that pledges do not have to be
paid in full during the drive, but
that the balance due on pledges
may be paid quarterly, monthly
or any way suitable to the donor.
The secretary urged the full
cooperation of all citizens of the
city in this united effort.
