Trailer coach show, uney toon
the Randleman trailer models to
the show.
When the old oak tree that
grew in Mrs. Julia Myers back
yard fell without damaging the
surrounding buildings and she
remarked that God Had done a
better job of falling the tree than
men could have done, her son,
Arthur Myers and Ray Moore
accepted the challenge. The next
week end they cut the other big
tree in the back yard. They were
confident they could fall the
tree in a certain place, but it
swung to the left and crashed
across neighbor Ed Friedenthal's
woodshed completely demolish
ing it and its contents. Last
Wednesday evening after work
Friedenthal decided to try his
hand at tree trimming. One large
limb, quite high on his tree,
shades the garden in summer.
He climbed a ladder and when
he had sawed about half way
through the limb it split off and
knocked him to the ground
where he landed face downward.
Ray Moore, who was sawing
wood in the Myer's back yard at
the time, picked Ed up and rush
ed him to the doctor. No bones
were broken, but Ed's skin was,
reports his wife, and he spent
the following day in bed. There
is one huge old tree still stand
ing in the front yard of the
Myers home, and one in the
street.
TALE GOES OVER
WATERTOWN, S. D. (U.B
Sidney Ulven testified In court
that his erratic driving wasn't
caused by too many drinks of
whiskey but by the burning
pain caused by swallowing chew
ing tobacco when he slammed
on the brakes to avoid hitting
a black cat. The jury could not
agree on whether to believe his
story and he was discharged.
