Low Down From Hickory Grove More and more bats are being flung into the ring democrats and Even Mr. Norman republicans. Thomas is trying it again the 5th time. There is some guy. But there are other nice folks in politics, too, the same as there are nice barbers or plumbers or lawyers. There is no use saying that politics is this, or that, or no good, or anything, because if the folks coming over on the Mayflower did the right thing by coming, then we must admit that politics is okay, and free elections are okay. What we want in the U. S. A. is prosperity for everybody farmers, janitors, doctors, etc., and in order to have the kind of a land we want, we must put up with politics and vote. There is nothing wrong with our system of government if there is anything wrong, it is with us voters. And talking about voters, and simple ones, I recken most everybody has heard the story about the simple sailor. But maybe 2 or 3 have not, so I will tell them. This sailor could fix any rope that was too short, he spliced it. But with a rope that was too long, he was sunk. Yours with the low down, JQSERRA Mrs. John H.
