♦ —5 —— Saw a couple of small boys buying fish hooks this morning and wondered why we couldn’t all be small boys with nothing to worry us. Also asked them what they were going to fish for and they said, “fish,” which made us know that some day they are going to be a legislator. Representative W. ,L. Wood called at' this office Tuesday, which ain’t no news at all, because Mr. Wood is nearly always here anyway—but what we were about to say was that Mr. Wood was here and tried to charter our gasoline-eater to take him to Oxford Friday, where he is to make the Memorial day address, offering as an inducement to permit us to hear his address, which, as far as we are concerned, was no inducement at all—rather something for which the audience should, be paid for attending than to pay for.
