STILL SHOOTIN' AT US!

Editor Warren Fisher, of the Car
Isle Mercury, possesses a tender
SPOT (somewhere) evidenced by
the steady stream of pot shots he
takes at the condition of Paris
streets. In the last issue of The
Mercury is the following:
Whatever slurs irritable motor
lists may cast upon the fair name of
our neighbor, Paris, it must be ad-
mitted that the old town occupies a
strategic position. Approaching
her from any direction, one must ne
gotiate shell-holes and craters, when
the city limits are reached. Per-
haps they feel over there, that once
in, it is better to stay in rath-
er than undertake the perlls
of crossing No Mans Land again.
The good people of Bourbon county
have long been noted for their hos
pitality"
