BY THE OLE TIMERS

Johnstone Street in honor of Bet
ty and her fiance, Sydney Carter.
A Thanksgiving motif was car

Out of town guests who enjoy
ed this affair were Mr. and Mrs.
A. T. Neely, Jr. of Rock Hill, Mr.
and Mrs. J. C. Gregg of Florence
and Mr. and Mrs. Walter Summer
of Columbia.
From J. B. Weaver, Fort Worth.
Texas: I remember watching my
mother cook meals 84 years ago in
the biggest fireplace I ever saw
It had iron hooks and rods for hang
ing and placing pots and kettles.
There was a heavy three-legged
oven similar to a modem frying
pan with a cover which was put
on and off with an iron hook or
poker. Coals of fire or burning
wood was placed around and under
the oven and on top of it. Heavy
tongs and a poker were essential
parts of the cooking equipment.
There wasn’t a cook stove in all
that part of Chambers County, Ala
bama. It is not too much to say
that the bread, biscuits, cakes and
pies turned out by the good cooks
of that day equalled anything of
the kind prepared ii\ modem
kitchens.

From Mrs. 8. P. Hudson, Green
Forest, Arkansas: I remember
when all the children of the family
took their dinner to school *in one
big bucket or basket. Each always

T DISLIKE to meet ladies on the
* street who stare a hole through
you when you don’t tip your hat.
I was trotting down Main Street
the other day and this lady began
to stare at me from about 30 feet
away. I stared back, thinking I
must know her, but unable to re
call her name. Should I speak,
I wondered to myself, or should
I stop and tie my shoestring.
As we approached each other
she continued to stare and so I
decided I must know her and should
speak.
When we came abreast to each
other I says, “Good morning. Love
ly day isn’t it.”
With that her nose shot up in the
air. She stops and says, “Sir, I
don’t know you. Are you in the
habit of speaking to strange ladies
on the street—ladies at least 30
years your senior.’*
“I’m very sorry,” says I, “but
you kept staring at me and I
thought I must have met you some
where.”
“The very idea,” says she. “I
just wanted to see if you would be
gentleman enough to tip your hat.
Obviously, you are no gentleman."
With that she flounces down the
street, leaving me with my mouth
open and nothing to say.
When I had recovered all I could
think to say was to myself: “You,
sir, are a cad.”
