A breezy, disjointed column recalls town residents, family ties, and local happenings. References include teenagers, a grandmother encounter, a child’s Kingdom reply, funeral memories, visits from Miss Low East and Miss Tiny Carr, local wedding guests in Tyler, a joke about an Oriental traveler, and community anecdotes about Odie Knight, Clyde Darnell, Danny Miller, Beulah Walams, Homer Tonnell, and Nell Howell. The piece ends with a quip about the Nautilus and a sardine family sighting.
