Never Too Late
To Learn
Cappy .Miller’s young son. Squint,
la forever coming up with new
Ideas. Now they’re not all world
keatera, but Cappy is usually will-
lag to give them a try.
Saema Squint found a new way
to clear brush. They take two trac-
tora, about thirty feet apart, and
connect them with a heavy chain
weighted down on the ground with
old iron. Firat they both go par­
allel in one direction, then they K<>
hack over the same swath in the
opposite direction and up comes
the brush-— roots and all. Worked
fine and saved time.
That’s why things go so well at
the Miller farm. Cappy ia open-
minded, tolrrrrnt of new ideas and
new ways of doing. He doesn’t
think hi* way is the only way.
From where I sit, a little toler­
ance will make things go better for
nil of us. You respect my views and
I’ll respect yours—whether it’s on
farming, politics, or choosing be­
tween an ice cream soda or a tem ­
perate glass of beer.

Obviously the nine special m eetings which have been held
were m ostly rum p meetings held to get them selves off the
political hook.
How could the Mayor attend these m eetings when he was
not notified?

Your M ayor received only one telephone call from the of­
fice of the efity recorder in regard to the special meetings
which w ere being held. T hat call was for the special m eet­
ing held March 11, at which tim e form er city attorney W ill­

Obviously the councilmen did not w ant the Mayor present
at these meetings.
Yet your M ayer was in the city when some of these m eet­
