WANT HIM TO EARN SALARY
It must be an interesting exper
ience to be a district attorney, but
according to Sam Notson, who fills
flat position in Morrow county, it is
not exactly a 8in,ecure. Tin reason
Mr. Notson, advances for such a con
clusion Is that so many people in the
county entertain th,e idea that his of
fice Is supposed to be a free source
of legal opinion as well as a sort of
general information bureau.
The oth,er day Mr. Notson received
a letter from a constituent in the
north end to the effect that the writ
er understood that it is the district
attorney'3 business o give free legal
advice to all residents of the county.
"Now what I want to know," the
writer continued, "is how many gal
lons of roof paint are supposed to be
in a half barrel? '
Being an accommodating sort of
citizen, Mr. Notson made inquiries of
paint dealers and answered his cor
respondent that the number of gal
lons would depend largely on the
size of the half barrel container.
Another time, and it happened on
a day when Mr. Notson was very
busy digging into some complicated
legal problem, his phone rang and a
voice from some rural line asked:
"Is that the district attorney's of
fice?" "It is," replied the busy of
ficial. "Well, Mr. Notson, we have
beentrylng to get the school superin
tendent's office and we can't find
her. We are having trouble with
our school teacher about whether
her watch or our clock is right;
what time is it, please?" "It is 27
minutes after 10:00 by my watch,"
replied the man of law, "but I don't
know whether it is correct or not
Another day the prosecutor was
engaged on a case in circuit court
when the bailiff tiptoed In and whis
pered to him that there was an ur
gent call for him on the telephone
"Ask the party to wait until I am at
leisure," Sam told the bailiff." But
they cn't wait, it's very important,"
urged Isiil Avers, the bailiff. So Mr.
Notson asked the court to excuse
li i in for a few moments and went
down stairs to his telephone expect
ing to hear of some terrible crime
that had just been committed. Tak
ing down the receiver he said: "This
is Notson, what is it please?" ,Oh,
Mr. Notson," came a voice, "I just
wanted to ask you how many times
a -machine gun. shoots in a minute."
Sam has never divulged what his
answer was, hut he. intimates that
two near crimes were committed
over that telephone within a minute
that day.
