“KRAZY KOLUMN”
(As Gathered by the Twin Reporters)
Cliffside, April 20 — Hello, Friends. We are back, or rather there is just one doing the writing tonight. The other twin has work to do. Bravo Sue. If the column is a little off you will know the reason why. Our motto is, “Carry On.”
We want to thank each and every one who co-operates with us. We appreciate all the news given us, for we want this Column to be as much yours as it is ours. Just because our writing is crazy is no reason why we can’t get sensible news form somewhere else. The news came to us that our Column was being cut out and pasted in scrap books. It pleases us if you like our news and we thank you. And to make it more interesting, we would like to get all the news you have, folks.
The Juniors of the Cliffside High school will give a play, “The Wild Flowers of the Hills.” Thursday night, April 23 at the school building. An admission of 10c and 15c will be charged.
The men’s Bible Class of the Baptist church visited with the men’s class of the Methodist church. Mr. B. B. Goode taught an interesting lesson that appealed to all those present.
The Intermediate G. A’s. are sponsoring the local negroes in the original play, The Twelve Tribes of Israel,” at the community hall, Friday night, April 24. Ten cents to one and all.
The Cliffside Baptist church had the pleasure of having the Boiling Springs choir to sing Sunday night. A ministerial student, Mr. Woodrow Hill, delivered a short message on prayer. The choir sang many beautiful songs.
Looks like to us, some people would grow up. Four young people were seen in Forest City Saturday night eating Lollypops. We won’t spill the beans, for we have an idea how they feel about it.
They must like to keep late hours in Forest City.
A certain young man broke the clock Saturday night. We don’t know why, do you?
It was heard said that Cliffside was a good place to be from. We wonder why this party keeps hanging around?
We visited the tulip garden Sunday afternoon at the home of Mr. Price in Lattimore. The beauty of these flowers can’t be expressed in words. We won’t try to estimate how many people were there but we will say, we have never seen so many cars in all our life.
