Night Watchman Reuben Jorgen-
son, it has been told, travelled seve-
raj miles the other night in search
of the miscreants who persisted in
honking the horn Of their car in the
dead hours of the night. Up and
down Main Street, through back al
leys and byways he went, his ire
mounting rapidly to the wrathful
stage and yet that aggrevating horn
continued to blat and maintain its
elusiveness. At last, his persistence
was awarded and he arrived at the
conclusion that the noise eminated
from the Kienast Motor Company
garage Having a key he stealthily
worked his way into the garage, hav-
ing in his mind the vitorlic "bawling
out" he was going to administer to
the "danged fools" who didn't know
any better than to disturb the peace
and quiet of he city at such an un-
earthly hour. Upon locating the Of
Tending car, he learned to his sur
prise that it was unoccupied. Some
thing had gone 'haywire" with its
mechanism, SO he had to call up
Maurice Plaisance to straighten out
the short circuit that was causing
all the disturbance.
