Civil smiles were the rule at the McCreary Community Building Tuesday as the Perry Chamber of Commerce and Perry Kiwanis Club teamed up to serve election-day chili and pie.
Hundreds of voters and others were served at the election-day fundraiser, all happy to lay aside the months of rancorous political advertising and fear mongering and to beat their swords into plowshares of fellowship and their spears into pruninghooks of neighborliness.
The strawberry-rhubard pie was very good.
