Mount Pleasant News (Newspaper) - June 27, 1958, Mount Pleasant, Iowa The it. Pleasant news fair these Days by George e. Sokolsky i dont know Sizy amid All out troubles de Gaulle takes Fiance Sherman Adams takes a Vicuna coat 800,000 Auto mobiles unsold too much Gold at fort Knox earmarked just t o mention a few it seems important too to know something about a Gal named Suzy. Personally being a peaceful quiet citizen the name of Suzy Parker never before made any impression upon me. Now i discover that she is a sister to Dorian Leigh who bore somebody called Porta go a child out of Wedlock. So what am i to do shout a three cheers and a Tiger Quot also i am told that this Suzy Gal insists on living her own life which is about All that anybody ran do. As nature has made up that Way. I read about Suzy or the sociological implication of a Gal who insists on living her own life i was thinking of this Suzy the other Day when i attended a wedding of a Young lady i know and it was a very pretty wedding and we All had a breakfast which unfortunately i could Only look at for my sins. Now this wedding was simple and quiet and peaceful As most Likely will be the lives of the people there because that is Tho Way they Are they do not go in for divorce which is always a Symbol i of a psychological defeat. They regard marriage not merely As a matter of sex relations but to establish and maintain a family. And of there Are differences As there always Are among human beings the differences Are resolved in favor of the family which is a True acceptance of tile doctrine that Charity. Which comes from the latin word Lor love begins at Home. Too of course the new Rich Are always with us and ale always a disturbing element in any society because usually they do not know what to do with their Money and verily believe that the Mere spending of Money attracts favourable attention. Thus. Between world War i and world War ii. The ancient Virtues of the japanese were dissipated by the shameless conduct of the Carikin just As in our country during the same period the War profiteers acted As though betrayal of their country should be justly rewarded. The Peep Hole columnists in the United states have in recent years stimulated this wickedness by giving undue and i sometimes feel indecent notice to trivial people whose Only virtue is that they have the Price to pay a waiter and whose newsworthiness depends upon the degree of the Absurdity of their private conduct. Such people often Are envious of those who make the Peep Hole columns and wonder Why they do not until they discover that an outrageous divorce a shameless Pursuit of sex in Public brawling in crowded places and similar Marks of Gutte snipe conduct often unnatural with them attracts attention. They even hire press agent -1 to give them bad names so that i they will be noticed. Vol. 80, no. 151 it. Pleasant Iowa eth u evening Jine 27. Ions county Republican it on vent Ion nominates l t.
