A 1 1 r VOL. 14—NO. 48 NEWBERRY, SOUTH CAROLINA, FRIDAY, APRIL 4, 1952 + *1.50 PER YEAR BOYS ARE THAT WAY By J. M. ELEAZER In all seasons we sought such wild flowers as the woods af forded. Winter was#the tight time. It afforded little. The principal thing then was tags from the alder bushes that grew along the streams. Those catkins stain ed growing in the fall. And by the time winter had laid every thing else low, they were dang ling there above every brook, and growing right along. We would risk getting our feet wet, and often did. to get bunches of those twigs with the dangling worm-like catkins on them We liked to carry them to school and swap them with the other kids. Louie came from across the creek, where he stayed with his grandparents. At the edge of their garden was a patch of alders on which the tags grew longer than anywhere else. We were simply ravenous for them. And w r hen he brought a bunch of them, there was much lively trading. We had to trade him something else, for our short er ones held no chain for him. We would have to part with a coveted tobacco tag. Indian arrow head, piece of strong string, slingshot prongs, iron washer or the like that all boys caiTied in their pockets. This went on with “tags” un til the first wild violets broke through the sod to tell us that spring was on its way. And from there on the going was good.
