Gabby Jackson was sitting there reading a magazine. I said hello to Gabby and he nodded. Doc comes out and says I’m next. “Wait a minute,”I says. (My tooth seemed to have stopped aching.) "How about Gabby — doesn’t he have an appointment?” Doc smiles and says, “Gabby? Why, he’s got the finest teeth in the county. He just comes up here and reads the magazines whenever he’s in town! ” As Doc went to work he told me that he's glad to have Gabby come up and read magazines . . . they might not all be fresh off the news stand, but if Gabby—or anyone wants to while away some time who is he to stand in their way? From where I sit, this “live and let live” spirit helps make Amerira what it is. If I prefer a friendly glass of beer with my supper and you prefer milk—who’s to say one's right and the other wrong?
