The Low Down On
GROVE

I guess everybody - easy 60
ing or not - has something or
other that VIII rifle them up.
With me, it is E cars - E for
exempt. Brother, they make me
boil.
And I am agitated right now,
because 1 just saw another one
of them - a shiny 1910 baby.
There were 3 women in the
front seat and 2 men and one
woman in the back seat.
There was a'name on the
door, SC I sauntered over, at
the service station, and the
name was San Luis Obispo
County, California. And it also
had a number - 48. But where
I saw the car was not in San
Luis Obispo County. But what
it was doing where I saw it, is
something, 1 guess, for the folks
in San Luis Obispo County to
stew about - and not me.
If We keep going another 4
or 8 years, and everybody gets
to working for the Govt. or the
State, and gets an E car, I rec
kon I will maybe get one too,
and will stop writing about EN-
- and being agitated.
I .looe I get a nice shiny one,
like the one from San Luis OBJ
ispo County. Oh. Boy!
Yours with the low down,

and his Strange Cargo

IA N 1921, two years after Cortez and his conquista-
dores marched on Montezuma's capital, a Spanish
ship sailed from Santo Domingo for the shores of
Mexico with a strange, but important, cargo.
The boat was not loaded with soldiers in mail,
with explorers or priests-but with Andalusian cattle.
The shipper was Gregorio de Villalobos.
Little is known about Villalobos or his ship, but
this cargo started the cattle business in this country, for
the cattle increased and spread over into what is now
territory of the United States.
In like manner the beginnings of today's telephone
service were modest. In June, 1875, there were but
two telephones which talked imperfectly between two
rooms in the same house.
Today there are over Fl, 600, 900 telephones in this
country. From your telephone you may talk easily,
naturally, to anyone in almost any village or hamlet
in this country, and in normal times to telephone users
in sixty foreign countries. The telephone not only
makes pleasant and easy your voice visits with friends
OR relatives in other cities, but it facilitates the function
ing of business as well.
