NYSSA GATE CITY JOURNAL, THURSDAY, JUNE 1, 1939 Ye Snooper’s Column Things About Nyssa’s Shops Up betimes to be at our chore at an early hour. But didst pause to peruse a gay little tome, "The Is lander” which hadst found its way to our desk via a friend. Tis a •'slick” and saucy publication from Honoulul but with many a pithy comment and wise observation in terspersed with its gay and sophis ticated effervescence. And these days of real summers warmth didst remind us of the pleasures of swim ming and surf boarding in the splashing blue waters at Waikiki. ’Tis a cooling and pleasurable pro cess. Aye verily. And were wonder ing if perchance that Ed would trade a good old salt water dunking for a day of next winter skiiing. And also we didst notice a correc tion for a mistake made in a prev ious issue and dist feel a sympathy with the Ed. For these mistakes do come about in every publication. Just why tis hard to say except that the human mind be ever a fickle thing and none of us perfect. But there is little else except death that be so glaring and final and so definite as the written word and a mistake so hard to rectify. But twas gratifying to learn that even in the Paradise of the Pacific man is neither greater nor less than man. Even as he be the world over. But we still feel sorry for that Ed —and the guy that made the error. And on Sunday didst join the family news getter on a trip to the ball game at Weiser and dist arrive a bit late, so that as we rounded the last corner of the field a great clamor of voices of approval didst greet our ears. We knew that the Ump must have called the right turn. That is for some. But there •were vehement “Boo’s” as well and over all came a shrill “Robber” from some already hoarse throated lemme. All afternoon the cheers and the boos went on, first from one side and then another till voices resem bled a bull frog symphony at eve ning and all were too weary to raise more than a faint croak. Tehn when all was over a merry handshake and a happy laugh—the crowd dis persed with nary a drop of blood shed. Twas just a bit of this coun try’s populace letting off their an nual steam and maintaining that mental and emotional equallbrium which so far has carried us past threat of dictator and national dis integration. And in the Portland papers this past week we did read where straw berries were at a premium and that the season would be short while up m Professional Cards JESS R. BAKER OPTOMETRIST Graduate Univ.
