Settion, 'Pwft tecfy Picking up the Monroe Gazette one early morning in the year of 1972, I glanced, as usual, at the headlines. It seems that some people would have a little consideration for John Rowdon. He was caught a few weeks ago trying to bum a ride on a train. When asked what he was trying to do, his only answer was “Huh.” What more could he say when he saw a gun being pointed at him by none other than the most deadly shot in all the United States. Sheriff Goldie Hollopeter. After John regained his senses, he asked to see his lawyer. Today is the day of his trial. His lawyer. Miles Zimmerman, is quoted: “I aim to save this bum (oops, I mean man) from this incriminating offense.” Reading down a bit farther I saw where the President. Patsy Urick. was going before the House to overrule the sale of bubble gum. A complaint was sent to President Urick from the new teenage rave, Dorothy Lambert, who has taken the place of Terry Moore. The other night at the premiere of Miss Lambert’s new picture, there was a riot between Vernon Ratcliff and Dave Helmrich, the two top bubble salesmen. Miss Lambert tried to stop the fight and in doing so got bubble gum in her hair. She cannot be seen in public for she had all her hair extracted. In reading the foreign news. I saw where Germany’s prime minister, Bernd Van Ruschen, was traveling to Lon- don, England, to spend a few days with the Duke of Wind- sor. the former Ronald Wagley of Monroe, Indiana. They are planning to attend the polo game which features the greatest polo player in Europe. Jim Lobsiger and his won- der horse, Rover. Mr. Lobsiger has played against all the polo players in the United States and Europe and has never been defeated. “Oil has been struck in Texas.” Yes. that’s what it said. “After all these years of trying. Mr. Roderick Beer and Mr. Richard Rumple finally became rich.” It seems only a few years ago that they started to drill for oil in hopes of getting enough money for the two mer. to buy themselves the goat ranch they have always wanted. They always did go for goat's milk. Well, what do you know? Ringley Brothers got them a new lion tamer. You couldn’t find me in a cage with one of those animals. I sure hope Miss Shaw knows what she is doing. It says here, “Miss Mary Jane Shaw will show the world her excellent control over her favorite cat. Chin- go. tonight at the fair grounds. Be sure to attend.” “Young whirl-wind discovers Rabies cure.” Young How- ard Michaels, who has been studying Science for only several years, floors Professor Albert Einstein and others by coming up with an amazing discovery for Dog Rabies. “If your dog has rabies,” says Dr. Michaels, “douse him in this special rabi solution. He will come out spotless and rabiless. Try it and see.” “Soap king sells out. Planning to retire.” Allen (Pee Wee) Lehman is planning to sell out his large soap plant located on the outskirts of Monroe to Gordon Singleton. The two men met yesterday to discuss terms of the sale. While discussing the sale, Mr. Lehman broke down in a flood of tears. “This was my life,” sobbed Mr. Lehman. “Please take care of the plant and all the employees, they have been so nice to me. Why last year they gave me a year’s supply of our nice soap for Christmas.” Mr. Single- ton, hearing the crying man tell of some of his saddest moments with the plant, also began to sob. Both men clung to each other and since the office was beginning to fill up with tears, Mr. Lehman’s secretary. Kay Ann Witte, called the doctor and the janitor to clean up the mess. Upon the doctor’s arrival, he found both men lying on the floor, exhausted from the cry. “Mrs. John Smith, alias Ardola Parrish, mourns loss of fifth husband.” Today Mrs. John Smith lost her fifth husband, the wealthy John Smith. Undertaker Jim Bau- man, who has investigated the mysterious death of all five men. says there is no trace of poison or any other illegal doings. Of course no one thinks innocent Mrs. Smith did anything, although she did inherit all of the wealthy men’s money. Upon finishing school. Johnny Bluhm took up tap dancing lessons with Arthur Murray’s assistant, Fred Fox. The two men became so attached to each other that Arthur had to fire Mr. Fox. That was the worst thing he could have done, for now the two of them are appearing to- gether on their own TV program. Everyone watch your screens and tubes. Fred has big feet. “Flying Saucer seen in Mountain area.” Oh, don’t be alarmed folks, just keep your seats. It is just John Rip- ley. following in his father’s footsteps, teaching his fif- teen children to yodel and sing “Hilly Billy Music.” Playing tonight at Carnegie Hall will be the great violin- ist, Ruth Mae Weber. On the program of entertaining music for the evening will be Beethoven’s “MIDNIGHT RIDE.” (I think it is Beethoven’s.) Attending this con- cert will be Larry Schwartz and his swinging five, who are known throughout the United States as the hottest com pickers around. “It will do these boys some good to listen to some cool music for a change,” says Mr. Schwartz. Reading the Society page. I noticed a new article called, “Your Love Problems.” The title sounded interesting so I began reading. “If you are tied down, don’t fret. I’m tied too says Don Barger, writer of the article. “Don’t let trifle things get you down, join the rest of us guys who are spending our nights in the gutter because of heartbreak. Whatever you do, never let your wife know how you feel. If she knew she would probably send you to bed without any supper and that would be drastic. So men. if you have problems, let me help. Just send your cards and letters to me, Donald Barger, 1234 North Second Street. Monroe, Indiana, and I will answer them as soon as possible.” Also on the Society page, was a brief article on Elaine Stultz. She got herself a man. She always did go for the dark and handsome and here she shows up with Liberace’s nephew. Whew! Some people have all the luck. Say, now, shouldn’t I recognize that woman. Of course, that is Florine Hirschy. Where did she get all those brats, er . . . I mean children. They have even got their pictures in the paper. It says here, “Youngest mother in the United States to have four sets of twins. During a cen- sus taken last year it was discovered that 28 year old Florine Hirschy is the youngest mother of the most child- ren.” Just think, eight kids in a little less than seven years. Help wanted. Some one to hold glue bottle while glue is being applied. If you are interested, see the manager, Mr. David Liby between now and Friday. Must have long, strong fingers. If the manager isn’t in. consult the nearest drugstore. You will probably find him there buying more glue. Compliments of DUTCH MILL, Bluffton
