doughty secretary of ours has, de- termincd that said business would be completed and he would arrive back at Genlots in time to help take over the Lautenschlager herd.
 Things went well as far as busi- ness was concerned and our hero was headed back in the direction of Waterbury at 4:OO p. m. Every thing was going lovely until the windshield wiper. which had been functlOning beautifully, gave few spasniodic jerks, laid down and died. Ole tried the usual first aid
