Sy Joe Marsh Turned Out To Be a Good Break We had a water main break last Thursday. Happened early in the morning-about two a.m. and the first thin? most of us knew about it was when we tried to turn on the faucets and nothing came out but a hissing noise. Nobody was inconvenienced much though. Repair crew went right to work-and things were fixed up in jig time. Incidentally, the water com pany got a flood of payments on overdue bills that day. Lots of "forgetful" folks must have fig ured they were being warned! From where I sit, sometimes our obligations slip our minds. Like the responsibility we all have to our communities ... to see that our neighbors enjoy the right to decide for themselves how to work, how to vote, whether or nof to enjoy a bottle of beer. Any time we "forget" we owe this right to others, we take a chance on stopping the flow of tolerance that makes this country such a grand place for u to live in.
