Has a Heart
And Did His Part

Motorman on Lewiston bound car
No. 122 which left Augusta last night
at $50 has both a heart and a con-
science.
Plunging into the driving fury last
night at 100 O'Clock he espied dark,
huddled shape in the snow opposite
Farmingdale cemetery. Already
nearly forty minutes late, he stopped
the old bus and backed her 500 feet
to investigate what he thought might
perhaps be some poor wayfarer beat
en- and exhausted by the storm. Said
he'd rather know for sure and not
have it to worry over.
IT proved to be but half-buried
Christmas tree but it sure was de-
ceiving. All sighed with relief and
not one of the storm-weary COM
muters was heard to utter a word of
protest at the delay.
Here's luck to that driver on every
road he yanks a controller or pulls u
throttle.
