The tragic death of Lawrence Hull Wednesday cast a pall of gloom over our little community, where he was born and grew up. Larry, as he was known to his friends, attended the Table Rock school when a young lad, later working with his father, where he learned the orchard business. Taking over the Red Skin and Table Rock Orchards after the death of his father, the late Elmer Hull, Larry not only proved himself a capable orchard man, but a considerate, and kindly person with his workmen. He was loyal to his community, which he loved so much he disliked having anything published that might reflect unfavorably on the welfare and in tegrity of the area. A good neighbor. He was always willing to cooperate in any move that would be a help to his adjoining neighbors. We Join with many others in extending our heartfelt sympathy to the bereaved family. , This accident, which is the second involving a log ging truck in the same place in a year's time, has caused much talk and expressing of opinions. Some say this curve needs to be worked over, as it is unsafe in Its present condition. Others believe we should have speed limits and that trucks and cars drive too fast over the straightaway approaching this curve. Some time ago our local ladles got out petitions asking that speed limits be established here and the proper signs be posted. We understand that a man was sent out here to check speeds. Also we are told that the man sat in his car at one side of the road, but in plain sight of those driving on the road. Of course he didn't see any violators as the fuel that he was there soon was known from one end of the straightaway to the other. An average dally attendance of 22 youngsters was reported at the vacation Bible school at the schoolhouse here. A program reviewing the work done will be given Tuesday night at the schoolhouse. Beginning this date, the Table Rock store will be open seven days a week until Oct. 1, Mrs. Johns Thomas announced. At the meeting of Mall Tribune correspondents held Monday, at the Twltchell home, there were only two men present. The rest were all women who are credited with doing the most talking and must do the lion's share of spreading the news by the written word. It was an interesting meeting, conducted by Cleve Twltchell, M. T. regional editor, and we learned many things, al though they say you can't teach an old dog new tricks. Perhaps what we learned may show up In future Tab lets. At present, we are limited to time and space. How ever, we were served with delicious cake, coffee and punch. The treats were on the house, and the house be longed to Cleve and his wife. a a Thought for the day: Idle brains are the devil's work shop. (Grandma's Law.)
