FOROSON TRACTOR
FLOWED ...-SURE DID
BUT MANSFIELD ROPED THE Ed
ITOR IN TO HELPING
MOVE A SIGN.

He had a smile on his face and his
manner was debonair and gracious
when he extended the invitation and
he brought along one of the latest
model Ford coupes with all the Elk
ms" as means of transportation,
but the recipient of all these favors
soon discovered that J. D. Mansfield,
manager of the local St. John E.
Titus garage, had something besides
a Fordson tractor demonstration for
the editors entertainment.
The tractor demonstrated all right.
But it's long, long story. The trac-
tor was blowing up the Pacific high
way down at the end of the paving
near the bridge, blowing through that
hardpacked gravel just like 1t was
SO much sand--but that isn't the
story.
Coin to move sign" Mansfield
said as We ambled along by Lacey
So the news was broken All the
conversation previous to that had
been about the Fordson tractor. That
was camouflage. The tractor plowed,
but then it had been blowing for sew
eral days.
We turned in at st. Clair road and
stopped. The sign covered about
half the landscape Whereabouts and
Mansfield had all the employees of
the local garage and a few from
Centralia out there to move it. 1t
appeared he needed one more husky
individual. hence the gag about that
tractor demonstration. And we hadn't
seen the tractor yet.
For a time we stalled around with
a few technical observations, bit Of
advice and pleas4ntries about the
weather. but that didn't work. The
sign had to be moved - Mansfield
couldn't get that notion out Of his
head. So we shed coat and grabbed
hold of a part Of the bloomin' sign
and 10 or Is others got hold of it,
too, and we carried It over and put
1t on big truck.
"We'll go down and watch the
tractor now" Mansfield said then,
happening to think of it again. and
we drove on, down to the end of the
paving and turned of into the juno
ton with the old road. Sure enough
the tractor was there and just as we
got interested in watching it. along
comes the truck with that bloomin
sign again.
1t turned in at the junction. too.
and the rest of the story became
clear. Again we essayed a little
camouflage and offered few observa-
lions about location, ETC.. but Mans
field had picked that job out for
himself so we climbed barbed-wire
fence. grabbed hold OF the bloomin'
sign again and put it UP. some 10 or
Is others helping.
And the tractor kept on blowing.
1t stayed with the job, pulling a plow
right along tearing up that gravel
and the contractor said another kind
of tractor was going to be there,
toO-was. but the Fordson was the
only one that showed up and went
to work. 1t plowed-But you ought
to see that sign.
