BOYS ARE THAT WAY By J. M, ELEA2ER As a kid I hated to hear the last cicada cease his buzzing song in the woodland. For it meant many things to a country boy. Cotton was whitening in the field. The rows were long. And, my, how I hated to pick that stuff. There was only one reward ing feature of that task for me. And that was the occasional wat ermelon we could find hidden there in the grass at times. We usually replanted the skips in the cotton to watermelons. And the puny vines that resulted would and the Rev. Tames B. Mitchell. Burial was in Rosemont Cemetery in Clinton. put on some little knots about the size of your head. On a cool fall morning it was rare thrill to find one of those there in the yellow ing grass and weeds of the cotton middle. We would break them on a rock and the tender sweet meat would hull out in clean chunks. And we would eat it down to the white. Then, worst of all, the going of the cicada meant the coming of school before long. And how we hated that! Not so much that we hated school. But look what it beat us out of! The wild harvest in the woods was ripening then. And we strove to let none of that waste. Then too, the foreboding of chilly days would soon cause our old creek to lose its lure. And that was tragic for sure. Happy sum mer days by the score were spent in its rocky channel building dams, getting mussels, grabbing for fish (and we really caught ’em that way, in our hands), and just playing around. And, perhaps greatest of all, when hidden down there in those jungle recesses we were out of reach of that thing called work. It irked us a lot. And we used varied means for getting away from it. We talk now of how we worked in the fields. But par ents earned and earned well what they got out of us. I often think now that it was more trouble than it was worth to them.
