Vic Vet jayi “a Jeb Had the Folks in Stitches! At the Friday Night Social, Jeb Crowell had the audience in stitches — doing a take-off on the blustering character who belittles everybody and everything that isn’t from his own home town. Well, we can laugh at that sort of character because from where I sit, Americans are just tj)e op posite. We like to boast a bit per haps, about the paint job on the new barn, or the missus’ style of cooking—but we aren’t intolerant of people who don’t think or act exactly the same way we do. LISTEN mac ! BEFORE USING your bill benefits . GET ALL THE FACTS FROM YOUR NEAREST VA OFFICE. si In our town, for instance: Some folks like band concerts, others don’t — some families serve beer with dinner, others, buttermilk — and as for politics, there’s plenty of healthy disagreement. But when it comes to denying folks the right to think or act as they choose ... no, we’re like you —we don’t believe in it, whether it goes for serving beer, or speaking one’s mind on public affairs.
