The Melting Pot
GOMEZ TAKE POTIUCK
WITH Us

Marvin Campbell has the highest
regard for the ordinances Of the
city and the laws OF the state. and
he is at all times particular not to
violate any of their provisions know
ingly. He is especially particular
in his efforts 10 obey these laws that
have TO do with and regulate traffic.
Mr.. Campbell's respect for the au-
tomobile laws and ordinances was
acquired through his experience in
driving his own car. Twice in his
life he was reprimanded by an Off
Ger Of the law for minor infractions
of the city ordinance governing
traffic, and he made up his mind to
be always on his guard.
Even though reprimanded by an
officer, his respect for the police
grew. and he determined to show
the traffic officers that his heart was
with them in their work. One day
the opportunity presented itself. On
the two occasions Of his reprimand
by the police, Mr.. Campbell had
parked his car on the wrong side Of
the street and had it pointed the
wrong way.
This time he would show the Off
Ger that he knew the law and was
prepared to obey IL to the letter. He
was driving on Michigan ST., and
wanted TO stop for a few minutes.
In order to get on the right side OF
the street. he had 90 make a turn.
He did this with the most careful
accuracy. running his car smoothly
up TO the curb. carefully pointing II
in the right direction. and then
looking around at the traffic officer,
expecting TO receive that individually
hearty commentator.
The time was a little after dusk.
and the boulevard nights along the
street had been turned on. The Off
Ger approached Mr.. Campbell. and
he. who had made a special effort 20
come within the meaning Of the
traffic laws, awaited the officer
thanks for his very apparent effort
TO cause as little trouble as possible.
Imagine his confusion when instead
Of the expected thanks, the officer
offered this:
Hey, daddy, you'd better light up
there before you get into trouble"
In his anxiety 20 observe the park
ing provisions of the law. Mr.. Camp
bell had forgotten to turn on the
lights Of his car. G. j. c.

ADVERTISE

Geo.! Says-Don't complain about the
profits
When your business takes slump,
While competitors around you
Seem to have you on the jump;
Don't expect the buying public
To step up and patronize
A firm they never heard Of
Come TO life ard advertise.
Don't blame the weather and the times
When patronage is poor.
While across the street your neighhor'
Seems to prosper and endure,
Just investigate his methods
And you'll find TO your surprise
He's chap with an elliott" sign
And knows how to advertise.
Perhaps you are an advocate

Because 1t pays q title more,
Your profit you conclude;
But if you'll only take the time
To stop ard analyze
You'll find the guy with an Elliott
