Last day of school a day for celebration
GREENVILLE – “Yeah… got a job this summer,” said a Greenville Junior
High student. Doing what? “Bailing hay!” The student demonstrated the

tossing it into the bailer. Pay good? He nodded his head, grinning.
Some of his classmates weren’t quite as set in their summer plans.

A TRIP BACK IN TIME
Our Old House
By Abraham Lincoln
The house was old when we moved in. I should say it was old when my dad
bought it and got the deed after paying $300.00 in past due taxes. The
