Mr. and Mrs. Wayne Poe and
three children of Dallas and Mrs.

the Oscar Poe’s Saturday even-
ing.
ridiculous. The criticisms of this
show gave no indication that it
was other than light comedy on
the order of the incomparable
Carole Lombard-Cary Grant com-
edies of yesteryear. “Pillow
Talk” seemed to hold virtue in
high disdain and sobriety appar-
ently wasn’t in, these sleek char-
acters’ vocabularies. For the
love of Hollywood, must we
stick to Snow White and the
Seven Dwarfs every time we
iwant to take our family to a
movie? Come off it, Hollywood.

Let’s face it as parents . . .
such movie fare as “Pillow Talk”
is not for impressionable youth,
despite its lavish settings and
sophisticated chatter. For adults
'who have chosen their course in
life, it might do.
This mother made the mistake
of taking little ones to this, so-
called, sophisticated comedy. The
hero at one point was so drunk
his eyes glassed over . . . good
photography, no doubt, but hard-
ly fare to serve a ten-year-old
son. My daughter turned and
asked, “Mamma, what’s the mat-
ter with him?” The main com-
edy relief was the maid, who
was an alcoholic who came to
work half crocked. During the
rest of the show the hero and
heroine were rarely without a
Scotch and soda in one fist.
Other innuendos which should be
protested by parents with any
'decency, was the comedy bit
when, the hero pretended to be
too feminine . . . this rib tickler,
which is really a tragedy of our
nation was also used for the hit
picture, “Some Like It Hot”.
Now is this quirk of nature
really funny . . . admitted that
the movie industry is desperate
for audiences, this sort of rot is
Pecans have been the subject,
of most conversations of late.
The boys On Main Street keep
saying that the native pecans
are best this year, but this col-
umn will take a less succulent
repast in the form of thin paper
shells, less work in getting to
the goody. Little boys down
round Rural Shade and on the
rairies have been making as
■much as $20 per day. Picking up
ecans, aside from this year’s
moneymaking assets, has an un-
accountable charm for practical-
ly every human being—old and
young alike. Another odd point,
during this season, is the dif-
ferent attitude persons take over
pecans. For instance, the editor
on a recent family drive through
the woods, would carefully figure
where the roots of a, tree were,
and, by gum, if the roots were
within a pasture, no pecans for
/the Kittleys! Now the so-called
Society Editor, albeit a little less
honest, finally threatened to get
out and walk over this procedure
—to heck with the roots, if a
pecan is laying at these dainty1
feet, woe to the pecan. It may
be sort of sneaking, but out
toward Rural Shade, the Society
Editor isn’t too adverse to' stick-
ing a grubby paw through a
fence if there is a particularly
pretty nut laying there . . . the
ole debbil may get us, hut we
are pretty sure Ama Bain, E. K.
Howell or Willard Parker will
agree I’m too big to spank. Fi-
nally, when the Kittley entour-
age got to Les Parker’s store,
Les gave us a big sack of paper
shells, upon which act the editor
breathed a sigh of relief and
we all settled down to. munching
silence.
My aunt and I have had many
arguments over right and wrong.
For instance, she claims stealing
an apple is as punishable as steal-
ing a mint of money—hummm!
The pecan situation has most
people confused in the same
'manner.
