A fella should save for a rainy day—but in doing so he usually gets plenty of bad weather reports from his rel atives. VOL. 14—NO. 26 NEWBERRY, SOUTH CAROLINA, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 2, 1951 * $1.50 PER YEAR $26,000 Annex Planned For Agriculture Building BOYS ARE THAT WAY | i By J. M. ELEAZER One winter day they were going to butcher hogs at home. And. as was the custom, they let uo stay from school that day. We got up with tlm grown folks, while the stars were still out. and frost was crusted heav\ on the ground. The wash pots had been filled with water the evening betore, and the wood properly stacked around them lor the tire without dela\ in the morning. As there was heavy ice on the water, we ligured it would take a good while to get the water hot. So we caught out the horses and went to our rab bit boxes across the hills while it heated. By that time we could be back and see the hog killing; down in the old rail pen. We had been furnishing fresh meat for the family with rabbits. Now that we were butchering, we would have plenty of fresh meat without them. So we de cided to bring the catch back alive that morning. This was the first real cold morning we had had, and that usually meant a good catch. And surely enough, it turned out that way. My brother was older, and he did the getting off and check ing the boxes. The first two rab bits we caught, he made me hold one in each hand. Old Frank knew the path and just followed old Bill that my brother rode. So my hands didn't have to fool with the reins. But 1 thought they would freeze and drop off, and I complained loudly to him. He threatened dire things if I let one of those rabbits get loose and galloped on. Soon we had two more, four in all, a record catch. He carried them. As we rode up to the house, dawn was faintly growing in the east, smoke was rising from the scalding water in the pots, and the men were going down to the pen with an axe. We forgot about our numb hands in that glow of achievement as we rode up. We held the four rab bits high, one in each hand, and a man said, “Maybe we needn’t ■kill that hog.” We penned them, fed them col- lard leaves, turnips, and hay for a while until fresh meat was needed again. And in the mean time we “threw” our boxes un til meat was needed again. The Prosperity Carden Club will meet Monday afternoon, November 5, at 3:oU with Mrs. J. L.. Counts. Mrs. H. E.
