Lem's Dogs vs
Triad's Chickens
Rnnnins newspaper, you get
to know a lot about human nature.
Thad Fhipps Tvas in the other
day, all burned up. Wanted me to
run an item on how Lem Martin's
dog had raided his chickens again,
and ought to be put away by law.
I told him: Tern was in on
Saturday. Said you shouldn't be
allowed to keep those chickens so
close to his house and in a resi
dential zone, at that."
Thad shuts up right pronto
then. And that very evening I see
him making his peace with Lent
at Andy Botkin's Garden Tavern
over a friendly glass of beer.
From where I sit, anyone can
find something in his neighbor to
complain about. (Some folks may
even disagree with Thad's right to
en joy that glass of beer with Lem ! )
But where would we be if every
body tried to have a law passed
against everything they disagreed
with? We wouldn't have many
neighbors left!

appropriation in the amount of
S71.71S.00, the Court met on June
25, 1917 and decided as follows:
That the work on the Willow

the north end of the County.
After the above work is com
pleted, the balance in the road
fund is to be used for emergen
cy purposes.
No piece of County equipment
is to be let out to any private
person or persons on any job
unless the operator is absolute
ly satisfactory to the County

There you have it in black and white the way to avoid many a fatal
accident. And this is equally true it's not "safe to be a smart driver!"
The young driver who slouches over the wheel and goes twisting
and roaring through traffic for his own self-satisfaction and the
adulation of others is as out of date as a 1910 flivver.
More and more, new drivers-to-be are enrolling in driver in
struction courses, to learn how to be safe and intelligent drivers.
They are taught how to operate and control a car. They become
familiar with traffic rules and regulations and the penalties for
violating these established rules of the road. They learn that it is
really smart to be considerate and courteous to others.
Many communities are making these courses available through
their schools today. If your son or daughter is coming of driving age,
see to it that they take a driver instruction course. If there is not one
available in your town, ask the school or police authorities how you
can obtain instruction material.
Make young drivers safe drivers right from the start
