Hot Dogs at very Good Price to ,d and Hungry Motorists

mired down they asked for horses to
pull them out. Bill rented them his
horses. One day there were more
mired cars than there were horses,
and Bill. who always kept his eyes
open, noticed that the people who
were waiting their turn to be pulled
out got hungry and wanted food.
BIZ went to town the next day and
bought a stock of hot dogs, which he
afterward sold at a very good price
to mired and hungry motorists.
A spell of fine weather followed
the rainy spell, so that the detour
got into fairly good condition. This
would have cut down the income OF
a less resourceful boy than Bill. 1t
did worry him for time, but then
another idea came.
With pick and shovel he dug pits
into the detour at several places, and
covered them with loose earth so
they were not visible to people using
the road. At other places he turned
a small stream into the road, so that
it created mud holes which were al !.
most as good for Bill's purposes as
those made by nature herself.
After that when the cars came in
they became mired as often as be-
fore, and there was the same demand
for horses and hot dogs. In few
months Bill had paid off the mort
gage on the farm and given his
father enough money to build a new
silo.
Another boy might have been con-
tent with a good playing business
such as Bill had created, but Bill had
vision. He Saw that the detour
would some day be abandoned, for
inside of three or four years the
highway would be completed, and it
would take at least six months OF
travel to damage it so that it would
have to be torn up and reconstructed.
That would mean six months of idle
ness and lack of income for Bill, un-
less he did something about It,
So he climbed into the new car ht
had bought out of a. part of his
profits and went about the country
side for forty or fifty miles, renting
detour routes on all the farms along
which highways ran. 1T was speci"
fled that he was to build the detours
himself, and equip them with emer'
gency teams of horses and emergency
hot dog stands. Also, and this was
B.lPs Big Idea, he was to have thu
right to put up a gasoline station
and a portable garage along every
detour.
Bill next got in touch with tn
road authorities SO as to obtain ad
vance information about where high
ways were to be built, and conse
quentIy where detours would be need
ed. With the aid of road enginee
he developed detour over which n
