Translation for city slickers (non-hill people):

     Sleepy Stevins who is president of the Wide Awake Club was sleep walking home the other night, and fell of a cliff near Poker Holler.
     Most anyone can see that there are still fools in the country, if not, how do you suppose that a barber ever learned to shave a man.
