rrx 7m i News from Tutwiler By Janie Bruister 1 GrOODUklL-ESS YOU US IT a w. mm mm Hayward. Teeny and Pelham Turner, who usually do a lot of traveling, have devoted much time to adding some 115 trees to their spacious lawn and grounds and then enjoying watching them grow. The train service through Tutwiler may have diminished, but the bus service is thriving. The Greyhound makes 4 runs daily, two Northbound, two Southbound, making its stop at Down's Self Service and Bus Stop on the highway where they refresh and refill with fried chicken, iced colas and the like which provides that "pause" that makes the rest of the trip more pleasurable.

That's about it again from Tutwiler, where gold plated hubcaps were seen cruising through town. Don't know whether just passing through or there to stay, but yes, that can be found in Tutwiler too. ized. Sandra Russell's mother of Ruleville died last week after a battle with cancer. The mother of Doug, Brown and Joe Ray died of heart failure after being in an automobile accident last week, only days before her granddaughter (Doug and Katie Ray's daughter) was to be married on Saturday.

Myrna Mitchell, accompanied by her son Bill Bruister of Clarksdale, had tests for vision problems in Memphis. So far, so good. Anne and John Starr are home for the summer. They spend winters in Texas and summers here. We're glad to have them back again.

The Callicutts, Mable and Hayward, Jean and Thomas of Tutwiler and Tommy and Connie of New Orleans attended the wedding Saturday of Andre Callicutt of Holly Springs and Emily Brumitt at First Baptist in Abbeyville.

When our daughter Melanie was a first grader, she and her "best" friend Kay Anne Mitchell, who lived next door to us and was about to start first grade, were most impressed by the fact they KayAnne's sister, Kitty, had been allowed to just go directly into second grade. When she told Melanie that "Kitty was so smart, she got to skip first grade." Melanie said, "Well that's nothing, my mother skipped college." The "rest of that story" is that she now knows it was not due to super intelligence that her mama skipped college, but rather the lack of it. I'm still skipping things such as some I meant to comment on last time but skipped over.

Such as the flower show on the square in Sumner which was a big success. Everybody was a winner, but I wanted to comment especially on Mrs. Tom Rice's arrangement which was a favorite of mine. Also, I wanted to mention how good it was seeing Marianne Whitten out enjoying the flowers as she strolled around the square with Marianne Pennington and LeFrance Jemberg. Kim Graham's beautiful wedding took place at the Webb Baptist Church, also which I failed to mention as well as the lovely bridal shower given for her by the ladies of the church.

Now, we've currently been showered with the blessing of rain. Our flowers were grateful and would be even happier if the armadillos would develop a taste for snails or anything else but roots and bulbs! Bible school begins at First Baptist with Joy Sossaman as director. A kickoff pre-registration was held Sunday afternoon at the Church's Youth Center with skating and other fun things. The Rev. J.

B. Ray, wife Rose and children Anna and Joel will be attending the Southern Baptist Convention in Salt Lake City this coming week. Everybody was glad to see Tom and Polly Jennings back at church after being on the sick list for several weeks. Lee Carr is improving at home after having hip surgery in the Oxford Hospital recently.
