From where I s it... ¿y Joe Marsh
"Blind Man's" Bluff
You know how Handy Turner
down at the hardware store goes
in for weird advertising stunts.
Hell, when it came to plugging
his new Venetian blind depart
ment, his enthusiasm nearly
landed him in trouble.
H andy painted a w arning on
the tailboard of his tru ck : “ C au
tio n —blind m an driving.”
H elen A rkon, B rookings was
given a 10 day suspended jail
sen ten ce in Ju d g e N elson’s m u n i
cipal co u rt this w eek on a ch arg e
of being drunk on a public stree t.
’’Had driven about a mile,"
Handy sava, “when a state troop
er atopped me and told me that
sign might cause trouble. Guess
he was right. From now on I’ll ad
vertise in the Clarion.**
M rs. O livia L e itn e r has left on a
short vacation trip to P o rtla n d
S he has been tak in g c a re of Mrs.
M arg aret Bloom quist, H arbor.
1' rom where I sit, I ag ree—the
highway is no place for jokes. We
all ought to be considerate of the
other fellow when we’re driving.
In fact, le t’s respect our neigh
b o r’s rig h t of way always. Then,
w hen we h av e d iffe re n c e s of
o p in io n -say about the best route
to Centerville, or w hether beer or
butterm ilk is better with lu n c h -
there will be less chance of an y
body developing an y “blind ’spots.
