Sawdust..
Jewett Bush has his winter’s
supply of firwood but it happens
to be a large log uncut in sizes
for the stove. He’s wondering
how to get it cut without having
to do it himself and has been
thinking of offering prizes for
the fastest job of cutting to any­
one who wishes to compete. All
of which brought forth the story
of Hiram VanBlaricom who wag­
ered Roy Raymond some years
ago that he, Hi, could cut a
cord of wood faster than Roy.
After cutting up a cord or two
and losing bets on both cords,
Hi paid off his bet with Roy,
having enough wood cut by that
time to last for the winter. Who
won that one?
Dan Cason resents the fact
that his new sidewalk was not
mentioned via a news article aft­
er its completion. Dan failed to
read sawdust a week or so after
it was poured for it was men­
tioned then. Dan’s proud of that
sidewalk, saying it’s the only ce­
ment walk on Rose Ave. Maybe
he’s right in that for all we
know. And Dan doesn’t fail to
remind Harry Kerns that he,
Dan, has the better sidewalk now.
Heard of “water witching” but

Eby has Charlie close his (Char­
lies) eyes and heads him toward
the scene-willow witches as be­
fore. Black magic? Must be.
Charlie says any stick will per­
form for him, but willow better
because it’s more flexible. Claims
he first realized his “talen” in
1927. Ah, sweet mystery of life!

THE OLD JUDGE SAYS...
"Yes, I'm afraid there’s no denyin’ it. Judge
... jeeps and trucks and other kinds of motor­
ized equipment have taken the place of the
good old horse in modem warfare.”
“It’s true of lots of things in this war,
Eben. Every day we hear of new tactics and
requirements and new uses of products. For
instance, take the alcohol that is used for
war purposes. In World War 1, this vitally
needed product was used mostly in making
smokeless powder, chemical warfare materi­
als and medical supplies. Today it must do
far more... it must provide the base for such
indispensable products as synthetic rubber,
shatterproof glass, lacquers, plastics and
many other of our requirements so essential
to victory.
“As a result hundreds of millions of gal­
lons are required every year... half of which
is being produced by the beverage distilling
industry. Bet you didn’t know that, Eben.”
“As a matter of fact, I didn’t. Judge.
That’s a mighty important war contribution
that had escaped me completely.”
