VYONDER YVHO WVROTE THIS? Occasionally the editor re- i i ceives a letter that is of general Q interest to the public and there- fore worth publication. The fol- ' lowing letter is published more will of curiosity since no name is signed to it. Any hints concern- ing who the author may he, will be gladly received at this office. Michigan Pity May 23. 1943 Dear Editor: I suppose you are surprised to get a letter from me. 1 am so lonesome and discouraged since I came here. I find that it is rather confining and the days go by rather slow. Every time I leave the room some one goes with me and they carry a gun. I think they are afraid I will get hurt or some- thing, because they watch me awful close. They won't call me by name but say I am SIM. rath- er hard to remember but think I will get used to it. Theb' Riel' took my suit away from nie and gave me one of the latest style. It is sort of black and white striped. Sometimes white and sometimes black. There are some other fellows in rooms close to me. It sort of reminds me of some of the swell hotels I used to stay in, only this is different. I think I will get out ol' here in tvventy or twenty-one years if they don't throw ine overboard or I die of old age. Tell every- body to write to me and tell me all the new. Yours truly. Number 916. Editor' Note:-I think he is a little tiff in the upper story, and should have been sent to Indian- apolis to a home for the feeble- minded. A. Troxel. our local grocer and baker. received quite a scare yesterday morning while on his way to Rossville to deliver a basket of bread. The Ford which collided with a completely up- occupant under the car where he remained in a very uncomfortable posture un- til Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Bricker happened along and rescued him. No trace of the skunk could be found. XYe would advise Mr. Troxel not to start till after day- light hereafter. he was driving skunk and was set. pinning its 4 4 l .X four hour nap every after- noon will save much worry. An unknown traveling man was choked to death at the iVil- liams Hotel last night while trying to eat a piece of beef- steak. It is not yi-t known just what the outcome of the acci- dent may be. It is rumored that Trustee Herschel Bennett will hire an en- tire new set oi' teachers for next year. Iir. Nelson Combs was called to the home of Herbert Ruch east of town last Friday when one of the children was ill from eating a four-ounce bottle of Gluine, thinking it was maple syrup. Iiloc seems rather stuck up over the rapid recovery of the patient. Xvhen Lee Rothenberger be- gan his banking career, more than twenty years ago he was greatly handicapped by the loss of a card of war saving stamps. At the time they were supposed to have been stolen. but yes- terday while his Xvifc was doing the spring housecleaning. they were accidently found. Nvhilc in the act of moving things in the library, the wife noticed Sulliv- thing drop from the family Bible 'and upon examination, found it l i l . to he the long lost stamps. Lee says he cannot imagine how they ev--r got there, How things do change! Twen- ty years ago if a fellow had dared to predict that Mulberry would ever have such a school building as we have now, he would have been considered a fit Candidate for the insane assylum. if not lynched outright as a Hol- shevik. A modern school build- ing with a gymnasium and com- munity hall was unthought of. while such things as movies in thc sCh4iol, radio instruction, and regular play periods with paid instructors would have been an abomination to the Lord. Some of us liltl codgers will have to admit that this progress is get- ting tum much for us. Although we wish well for our young peo- ple, we are still selfish enough to be glad that they have to study an hour each day. That will remind them of the hard- ships the fathers had when they had to study all the time at school or stay at home and work for dad. Herbert Ituch was the victim of a bad accident last VVednes- day morning. when the old gray mule which he has driven to the inilk shake for fifteen years, be- Pilllli' frightened at a girl wear- ing a red dress. It is thought N' some that the mule stopped to look at the bright colors and Herbert :ave him a slash over the back thus causing him to run away. The mule ran down the street disregarding the traf- Iic Cuffs signals. At the corner of Main and Earheart Avenue, the W2-12'on was thrown against a light pole. The wagon and mule were separated and the milk cans were thrown in all di- recitons. Herbert was found un- conscious sitting in a case of smashed milk bottles. Hi- was liurricd to the Combs hospital where he is receiving treatment. I'ro1'. A. Mock has finally quit teaching after some thirty years ol' service as superintendent of the local schools, and has re- tired lu his cottage recently pur- -hased just north of town. He will devote his declining years to gatliering up the eggs and scratching in the garden. Al- though he regrets to give up teaching, he hopes to continue his influence through his two books, The Underlying I'rin- ciples of Puppy Love and The Easiest XYay In Dont. These works contain a wealth ot' val- uable int'ormation gathered from almost a half century of obser- vation of young people.
