friends,
Those pals who share surf and

In some carefree vacation
land; Whose lives you brush and
then recall
Some frosty day In early
Fall
Tlie way you jumped when
Whltecaps rose:
The swish of ssnd between
your toes;
The midnight swims the dog
gy roasts;
The banter and the Idle boasts.
And then the day Just had to
end
The letters that you failed to
send;
Die address that was soon
mislaid
Brings to an end the escapade,.
Where two lives touched end
moved apart
Leaving an ache within each
heart.

The television interference knocking out the picture on
most of your sets, Wednesday and Thursday evenings,
was traced down by interference testing devices owned
and operated by Derby's Music Co. The trouble was
serviced out by our TV technician, Mr. Joe Fisher.
For interference of such wide range, and covering
such a wide area, it is practically necessary to locate
and correct it as a public service.
We at Derby's will strive to do all we can to make your
television entertainment more enjoyable, by stopping
any local interference we can, and by servicing your
own set with the best of equipment and the most highly
trained technicians.
