NYSSA GATE CITY JOURNAL, THURSDAY, JUNE 22, 1939 I Sisters Seeing World From Novel Car Ye Snooper’s Column Things About Nyssa’s Shops ------ ------------------------ We were with ou.- permanent ts- i-.it among tho:.e (ortunates who panicked witn tin Kingman Kol- ,,ny Book club ami their lesser liity i.erceiits at the Tom Lowe ranch in ahell Butte this last Sunday aft- i ■ noon. And were reminded again that by u.h groups as this one have the cu Lure and high ideals of tire na tion been nurtured and carried on i r< n generation to generation in r.cw lands. And also didst also realize all over again how infinitesimal and insig nificant is the genus homo when compared to the whole creation down through tlie ages. We struggle and strive, love and hate, have wars, and peace, dictators, tyrants and ranting politicians but little happi ness and security for any because of greed and the false pride and the love of power of a few, who forget that the span of active years allowed to any is not more than 70 years. While these layers upon layers of rock, bespeak of a creation old beyond imagination. While here in the walls old Buttes strata of soil formation and that along tire canyon give indisputable evidence of aeons of past years when life in other forms was here and now is gone. Years when the whole valley lay hidden beneath the wa ters of a mighty lake, where shell fish lived and now are buried far under the top soils, and rocks where in live fishc . • time were en tombed by s ; ince forgotten cataclysm. 1 :>f a different climate and . 6e tat ion when the waters had receded and a river had cut through the rocky layers of earth. Then man came, and truly he doest have his place in the scheme of things, else he would not have been created but tis his own folly and selfishness that keeps from him the peace and Joy that has been prepared for him, until today we do groan under the yoke of a worlds adversities. Rather tis the folly and greed and selfishness of a few The Hitlers and Mussolini's great and small the world over who make us even here in America in our political security and freedom of thought and action Professional Cards DR.

KLINKENBERG OPTOMETRIST •See MeFall and See Better" "The Story of Transportation" might be the title of this group of pictures, showing the Misses Constance and Peronne Arntzenius, of The Hague, Holland, and some of the scenes they have photographed in the course of a 21.000-mile tour of the United Stales and Central America during the past year. Traveling in an American make of car equipped with a special body of their own design, the sisters have taken motion pictures and “stills” in vir wondering if some maniacal misfit will ever get the power to take our liberties from us and make us slaves In a tyrant ridden dictatorship. Only by keeping ever on the alert to all foreign propaganda of what ever land and of constantly keeping the control of this government from the hands of a few can we hope to escape the latest world wide trend of one man governmental control. For this reason no thought of a third term should be considered here, for once that saving precedent is broken, tis but a short step to de claring an emergency exists, putting the land under military law from which there can be no escape, out side of internal war and blood shed. If one man gives the best of what he has to the service of his country and withstands the rigors of that ordeal for eight years as president of these United States, tis enough to ask of him or for him to deside. No man yet has held down any job so well that another has not been created who can do it better. Even to the presidency of this county. If all could look upon the old Butte and feel the power and mind and ever lastingness that made it, then indeed would they be humbled in spirit, or looking out through the rimmed canyon over green fields to the blue mountains in a far distance gain some idea of a great love and ])ermanent peace that has since the beginning been prepared for mankind by an all Prevading Spirit. Surely the cool days have enabled us to wear our cool weather gar ments a bit longer than usual, but such comfort they wilt not last for ever, and when old Sol doest get out in full force again he will be mak ing up for lost time and we wilt all a swealter be and wondering how come the ice cubes in the refrigera tor do go so fast. Then wilt she who hast the summers sewing done be wise indeed. And right now is a happy time to buy those yardages for summer dresses, shirts and house hold needs for at the Golden Rule is a counter of all kinds of cot ton materials In gay and bright ef fects or softer and more subdued for the sedate. Especially pratical and yet good to look upon are the check ed and striped ginghams. And when thou doest make thy dry good pur chases there forget not to visit the grocery department as well for there be many a fine bargain just waiting to be taken home. And when of an evening thou canst find no place cool to rest thy bones, forget not that the Nyssa theatre is a scientifically air condi tioned. fitted with sdft and com fortable chairs and with a fine show to please thy esthetic sense or to tickle the funny bone of the lord of thy manor. And whilst thou art away from thy homestead there wilt be no need to worry over lost chicks if thou hast given heed to fencing needs tually every state of the Union. The roof of Iheir car can be rolled back to afford a view of the scenery, and the roomy rear accommodates the two cots on which tiio travelers sleep. Upper left photo shows the car uegoiuu... a dry river bed in Mexico, and the other small v;. depict various contrasting transportation mouea em tered en route. This is the sisters' fifth trip across ,.:o Atlantic, and they plan to remain another year. and corraled them with that escape proof Chic-mesh fencing that Emil Stunz doest sell at his lumber yard on the Hiway south of the Y. And A1 Thompson may be gone on a trip to the fair. We saw him and Ills lady sailing gaily past our door, vacation bound this past week but tis no sign that now as at all times one cannot purchase those Purina Chows for all the animals on the home place. Now if only that food preparing company wouldst just get busy on some husband chow, perhaps wives could get some thing done. And at Wes Browne’s we didst chat with his lady bout mice and men and canning needs and other things and whilst there didst spy out a most noble pressure cooker. One that wouldst take out all the guess work in canning and fine they be for so many other things. If thou be without one of these aides-to-weary housewives best call a treat-yourself-day and treat thy self to one of the best of them from the Baldridge Implement company. And twas a fine sale th a t the Dixon boys did hold on Saturday at their Commission yard on south Second and King streets and every thing didst go, ere the selling was over at fair prices to him that sold and to him that bought. And when thou are preparing thy summer's wardrobe forget not all that fashion these days demand of pedal extremities. Rather the shoes upon thy feet must harmonize with the whole ensemble. And at the Atkeson clothing store they do have a fine lot of shoes of many colors just the thing to complete the de sired artistic effect. And so low in price that one canst afford a pair for each costume. And now Barney Wilson with his ear ever tuned in to the needs of his customers hast arranged to keep his grocery store open these summer months till 9 p. m. so th at one need not drop the ever present pressing household duties and farm chores in the midst of them to dash to town for food for the morrow. Rather when the supper dishes have been cleared away and thy John returns from the milking, then there will yet be time for John junior to wash his feet and tuck them into their leather encasements again and all cleaned up jaunt into town for a leisurely shopping trip and pleasant evening. And at the Wilson grocery mart one wilt al ways find their grocery needs at the lowest prices. And whilst thou art here treat thyself to a soft drink or some of that fine Owyhee Maid ice cream that Omer doest have ever on tap at the Owyhee Drug store next door to the theatre. And to those lads who do have an eye on an especial lass, thou canst not do bet ter than to choose a fine box of candy for her from Omer’s ever fresh supply. And the way to a man’s heart DR. J. A.
