ROCK HOUND'S
CORNER
By JOHN NEWMAN
Have you your pick ready?
This Sunday you know is the
potluck picnic rock hunting field
day. This time we won't need
the pack unless this spot hap
pens to be picked out, if it is
maybe you'd better bring the
old sack along. We might want
to explore a little and you never
know what you might want to
bring out.
Most of the graveled roads are
in good shape, but some of the
dirt roads get a little slick yet,
with just a little shower. It
would be advisable to carry
chains if you have the least
inclination to get off on dirt
roads. Thunder showers can
come up quickly at this time of
year.
The potluck lunch is pretty
well planned at this time. If
you haven't been told what to
bring it is likely that you or
your phone has been out. If you
are in doubts call Ethel Newman
or Alta Edgers.
Our next meeting is Saturday,
From where I sit ..Jy Joe Marsh
The Woodchuck
Wouldn't "ChucL'
-fed.
m
Lady called up our newspa
per and asked how to get a
woodchuck out of her garage. I
referred her to young Chip
Wllklns, our Field and W ildlife
Editor.
That's easy,"says Chip. "Just
roll some bread into pellets, and
make a trail of them leading out
of the garage."
Next day she called Chip
again. "You sure are smart,"
she coo-ed, "to know a wood
chuck will follow a trail of
breadcrumbs. Now I've got tuo
woodchucks in the garage!"
From w here I sit, sometimes
"expert advice" turns out to be
not so expert. Reminds me ot
those who are always ready to
advise us how to relax. ..how to
work. ..whether or not to prefer
cofTec (for instance) to a (lass
of beer. I think a lot of us ought
to think (ric before advising
people to do this thing or that
thing. In the long run. It will
make us all better neighbors.

The lifelines f
your cUEitry
are threatened.
You can do something about it!
The railroad's are the second largest industry in the nation, and
are the fourth largest employer. They are one of the country's largest
purchasers of lumber, steel, oil and many other basic products. Their
tax payments in your state, county, city or town lend substantial
support to your schools and other civic projects. v
For years upon years, the railroads have been operating and
attempting to compete under the burdens of out-moded legislation
and regulation. At the same time, they have .been doing everything
possible to give you better transportation service and fighting to
keep from being annihilated by their subsidized competitors.
The country is now at the crossroads. The crisis is
her
e. now.
Down one road is the ultimate destruction of the railroads as a
private industry, the nation's most vital transportation link ...
its very lifeline.
Up the other road is the greatest good for you, your community,
state and all America ... a highly efficient, economical service
geared to today's transportation needs.
Which is it to be? You can give the answer.
NOW IS THE TIME --TODAY
Write to your Senators and Representatives in Washington. Let
them know that you recognize the vital part your railroads perform '
in a prosperous America. Ask that they be given the right to serve j
in fair competition.
Ask your Senators to support S.3778, and your Representatives
to support H.R.124S8.
