Nick, the other day, was hur rying back to Ihds home at Aberdeen from Seattle with his bride safely stowed in his automobile. She was his first bride and he was in a hurry, and he ran foul of Country Speed officer Chilberg, who told Nick it would cost him just $15 for his hurry. Nick promised to pay the fine and hurried on.

It is quite evident to my mind, that Frank has never visited a moving picture show in a small town.
