Newsy Notes of Pendleton
Jitney, Jitney Whose Got the Jitney
Whomsoever has a Jitney has the key to
my Jitney Club.
Don't carry a tin clock in your pocket,
somebody may see you with it.
Once Mark Twain wrote a letter "recom
mending a young man for a good position:
"He's alright," he wrote, 'he carries a How
ard watch."
If Mark Twain were alive today he might
say, "They're alright, they belong to the Jit
ney Club."
If you apply for a good position don't let
your prospective "boss" see your tin clock;
hide it in your hip pocket or leave it at home ;
or you may not secure the job.
I am making it easy for every man, woman
or child in Pendleton to own a watch on the
Jitney plan.
Two clubs:
Jitney Watch Club, 25 members.
Juvenile Jitney Club, 15 members. '
