ICE VENDOR
RICHEST MAN
IN THE WORLD

He was just a sidewalk vendor,
selling ice from a little pushcart,
but the richest man in the world
could have no more.
Outside the plaza where the bull
fight" was held in Brawley Sunday,
a little Mexican had set up his
puShcart. There was a block of
ice and several bottles of brightly
colored syrup. When a client placed
an order he would shave ice from
the block with a little scoop,
transferring the shaved ice to a
paper cone, and pouring several
different kinds of colored syrup
over the top.
1t was hot Sunday and business
was good. Customers awaited their
turn to buy one of his ices. No
amount of persuasion, however
would make him hurry. Just the
right amount of the shaved ice
had to go into each paper cone,
and the colored syrup had to be
poured in just the right way. And
when he handed the finished prod
uct to his client, it was done
with the deferential flourish which
a modest artisan might show in
presenting to lesser man the
product of his skill.
He had an assistant, a small boy
who took the paper cones out of
a container and handed them to
him. We asked him why he didn't
have his diminutive helper assist
in shaving the ice. He stopped his
work and smiled at us tolerantly.
NO" he said. Il couldn't do
that. To shave the ice this way,
senor, it takes many, many years
to learn"
An independent man, the owner
of his own business, and an arti-
san conscious of his skill. Could
any man be richer?
