was something in the newly chang
ed tire. When Mrs. Tibbies began
to get very excited over something
flying around in the car, they dis
covered to their horror that it was
a bat. The only answer they could
give for its presence was that it
had flown in while the tire, was
being changed and the ladies were

Best Way to Celebrate
The Peace
We were sitting on Bill Web
ster's porch the other night,
talking about how we'd cele
brate when the Japs surrendered.
Lem Toller allowed- as how he
was going to start his vacation
then and there and spend it
fishing. Ed Mapes was going to
take his family to Mountain
City for a big feed and a picture
show.
Bill Webster had the last sug
gestion. "I'm going to pour a
glass of beer and drink a toast
to our fighting men," he says,
"and that is just as far as my
celebrating's going to go. I'm gr
ing to make sure of being on the
job next morning."
From where I sit, Bill Webster
has the right idea. When Peace
conies, there's going to be a
whole new world to build.
Thero's a really big job to be
done. A glass of beer, the bev
erage of moderation, and a good
night's sleep to be ready for the
task ahead that's the right way
to welcome Victory!
