Handy and Easy
Are Both Wrong
Handy Petersoa and Easy Roh-
•rta sot in gait« an argument the
other day over at Fred’a Garage
talking about the beat spot to Bah
up at Green Lake.
"Opposite the old aawmill is the
beat spot,” says Handy. But Easy
"pooh-pooh’a” him. “I ’ve seen the
b iggeat fish c a u g h t off C edar
P o in t,” says E asy. “ I ’ve been
catching them there for yean."
Then Fred goes into his office
and brings out the biggest mounted
rainbow tro u t you ever saw. “ Bet
that was caught a t the sawmill,“
comments Handy. “Cedar Point,”
says Easy. “Well,* says Fred,
“you’re both wrong. I caught thia
baby right out in the middle!“
From where I sit, there are al­
ways two (or more) side« to every
story. Let’s live and let Uee la the
true American tradition of tolera­
tion. Your opinion is worth a lot.

.. A tw isted cortf can lead to trouble. Although the
wires are especially designed for flexibility, too many
twists and kinks may eventually break them and inter­
fere with service until a repairman can call. Good
idea tjO get the curls out by letting the receiver dangle
v .d unwind by itself . . . then keep them out by
remembering, each time you Call, not to put turns in
the cord as you handle the receiver.
2. It’s built to take it . . . but your telephone can
develop ailments if it’s dropped. So make sure the
stand it sits on is solid and is in a spot where it won't
be accidentally bumped. Other ways to help protect
service: Avoid "gadget” attachments for your tele­
phone . . . keep cords clear of doorways where they
may be pinched . . . and always keep water away from
wires and fittings.
3. D id you ever stop to think that your telephone
is one service or piece of equipment in your home
that’s repaired and maintained for life at no extra cost
to you? This maintenance is oqe of the values in­
cluded in the rates you pay (or service . . . rates that
make it one of your really good buys today.
