Why Pay Retail When You Can Shop Resale? “Treasures from your Attic to ours”
“The Magic Glove” myth? It gives the believer confidence out of this world and I have evidence to prove it. Just ask Louise Grub Walkington or her sister Sandy. Dale’s railroad job was in Rockbridge, so we were living there. Les and Phyllis Sample had a food and clothing store in the Bruner building. Mornings they were not busy, so in route to Jericho school I stopped. Men’s leather work gloves and blue jeans were the special of the day - I invested! During the day there was a lull. I asked Mary Williams and Nada King to take the Wishing Basket to my car and bring in my purchases. The treats for each student were Hershey bards. Then I had my idea. One pair of gloves I deliberately dropped on the floor. Darrel Shafer picked them up for me. I thanked him and told him they were Magic Gloves and explained if anything were hard to do - put them on while doing it. The reason he received on hundred in spelling was not the gloves - he studied while wearing. J.B. Smith threw the ball over the house and jumped for joy. Mary Love Hammon jumped with pain; she cracked a rib! A pulley is a wheel over which a rope or belt is passed for the purpose of transmitting energy and doing work. Quote world Book Encyclopedia. Those wells in Bible Times were plenty deep. I wonder when our Lord Jesus came upon the woman at the well - did she have the use of a pulley? When I was a little girl we had our well at the foot of a hill. Dad built a concrete platform around it with a massive tile (from White Hall) in the middle. The pulley was attached to a framework that he constructed of wood. The rope was hung and came from Alton. For Grandma Jennings, dad built a “Wishing Well” house. To me the pulley seemed to have been an iron wheel similar to the ones on a garden plow, only smaller. There’s a picture in my photo albums of cousins, Lawrence, Howard, Homer McCollum and John Jennings standing by “The Well”. Uncle George Jennings had cut their hair. They each wore a white cap that my dad had bought at “The Model” from Mr. Claude Hamilton. Jim and Beth Fields and children enjoyed 4th of July in Greenfield with Debbi and sister Beth fields. Jim barbequed. ‘Til next time!

GREENFIELD NEWS Being tired of morning cooking shows, I flipped my remote to channel 9 and discovered the Science Club that I nicknamed “The Critters”. In each one you can see yourself and friends at the age of ten. The tree house they had constructed was at least thirty feet in the air would have been any parent’s nightmare. There was no evidence of how they could climb up and down, but it brought to mind the tree house that Dale and my dad constructed under the umbrella shaped elm tree that stood in our backyard until “The big blow of 1983”. The white oak four-foot by eightfoot platform floor set firmly braced on a white oak foundation. The tree house was the center of many activities. Our American flag played an important part in the daily fun times. Pretend was the important game. It had invisible wings, with invisible wheels, plus an invisible motor! Nearby at Grandpa Nile’s and Grandma Carrie’s there was a “stick horse stable”. Whether the tree house became a pontoon boat on Wall Lake in Minnesota or Uncle Elmer’s machine shop in California, Rexie dog and Zorro, the black Labrador, lay in the grass nearby. Recently Amelia Burger attended the visitation of Gloria Wolford held at the Heinz Funeral Home in Carlinville. Gloria and her husband, Jack, were members of the Faith Bible Church in Greenfield. In the Boy Scouts - Logan Fields has advanced to the Wolf Pack. Dani Fields will be advancing to Junior in Girl Scouts. They are the children of Jim and Beth Fields. They reside in Jerseyville. What is most outstanding 4th of July celebration in your life? My sister Mel and I had recovered from Whooping Cough, but coughed now and then. Dad and mother took us to Whiteside Park in White Hall, where we were joined by Harry and Grace Piper and their daughter, Louise. Sister, Louise and I played on the bandstand with other children. Dad had made arrangements with a cousin to fry chicken, potato salad and hot coffee; we three girls had orange pop because it fizzed out our noses. We rode the Ferris Wheel. When we “grew up” Louise married Mick Waltrip - they were our neighbors. She selected me to assist her with Uncle Homer and Aunt Nancy’s 50th wedding anniversary. I still have the thank-you card and handkerchief from dear Aunt Nancy - a lovely Southern Belle. How many of you remember
