operations soon.

If They're Wild,
They Belong To Tik!
Saw Tik Anderson last week and
was reminded of the first time I
ever spoke to him. The missus had
sent me out one Saturday afternoon
to hunt for some blackberries.
I took a long hike and couldn’t
find any. Finally, I came to Tik’s
house along that low stretch east
of the fork on River Road. “Hi
there,” I says, “any blackberries
around here?”
Tik says, “There used to be—but
I don’t know much about things
that grow wild.” Later, I found
how Tik supports his family by
picking berries. Ever since, I’ve
been like the rest of folks in town
—respectful of his right not to
tell where “his” berries grow.
Front where I sit, respecting
other folks’ rights comes natural in
our town ... in America for that
matter! Whether it’s a person’s
right to enjoy a temperate glass of
beer or ale, or whether it’s Tik
Anderson’s right to keep secret
where his berries are, it’s all a big
part of a real democracy!
^^ONLY A DOLLAR X,
but many dollars, deposited
regularly at this bank, can help
you build security, and have
the other good things you want.
