Ns'glibor Policy" Remember one time when I told about the old loose-stone wall that separated Easy Roberts' property from Handy Peterson's? That was when they decided they really didn't need the wall between them in the first place so they simply stopped repairing it. Now I hear where a fellow, who bought the old Johnson place, wants to buy all those stones. It seems he figures a stone wall is just what's needed on his property. From where I sit, if that fellow wants to build himself a atone wall, that's his business. But if it'i not really serving any useful purpose he may sooner or later discover just like Handy and Easy did that he'd be just as well off without one. Even some old-fashioned walls of prejudice are disappearing like those that would deny a per son's right to a friendly glass of beer now and then. Most Ameri cans are learning that "walls" can get in the way of the persons in side as well as the persons outside.
