TRAVELS 5000 NILES;
NABBED FOR PARKING
w. l.. Marsh Family Returns from
Months Outing in
California

Travelling 5000 miles without mis-.
hap and then getting pinched fo,
parking is the recent experience OF
w. L. Marsh. Mr.. Marsh this week
returned from months motor trip
to southern California and didn't
have the slightest bit of trouble of
any sort with tires or car.
Accepting the police request that
he attend court he found that over
three hundred others had appeared
also. Ali but six received fines, the
lowest of which was five dollars
and all were for traffic violations.
"Bill' happened to be one of the
six, so it didn't cost him anything
but about three hours time.
On his way thru Oregon the Marsh
family stopped at Cannonville, where
they found Ben Pinckney engaged in
the confectionery business. In connec-
tion he also has a general store and
a bakery. Besides his business in
town Ben has a 30-acre prune or
chard that he is making money on.
Mr.. Marsh says California is
great place but that this country has
it skinned to start with. All we have
to do is to develop it and then tell
the whole durn world about 1.-THE
way California did.
