Advert isempni From where I sit... // Joe Marsh Chip Pulls a "Pip” Chip Hanson is a clever com mercial artist. Beside doing car toons on our paper, he picks up "free lance” drawing jobs. Right now he’s whipping up posters for the Safety Campaign. They all have headlines like “ play it safe !”. . . or, “A LIVE WIRE CAN START A FIRE!” Chip looked a bit sheepish yes terday. Didn't want to tell me why. Finally he blurted out, “I feel like a dope. Here I am on this safety program and the fire inspectors tell me my own stu dio’s a fire trap. I’ve been stor ing paint there for years ...” From where I sit, what hap pened to Chip could lAppen to anyone. He was just too busy in forming everyone else about safety — not realizing hi» safety was threatened. Like those who fret about their neighbors — whether they can afford a new house, whether they should have cofTee or a glass of beer with lunch — Chip simply forgot to “draw” some obvious conclusions about himself!
