CORINTH, Miss, Jan IA. - For ten years blind Joseph Armster Odle has been running a lucrative filliry 2 station business-filling gas tanks, changing oil and handling accounts. He has been cheated but once.
 His system" is built on trust:
 While I handle dozens of bills a day. no one has ever told me he was giving me a five-spot when actually handing me dollar bill. So Tar as I know. no one has ever given me the wrong amount of change deliberately. I have faith in them and they keep faith with me"
 Graduate of two schools for the blind, Odle bought his station from two men who couldn't make it suc- ceed.
 They told me business had left here he recalled. but I've made a comfortable living and enough be- sides to pay s5,000 in cash to build a new station"
 During the last two years Ode has had two helpers but still waits on many customers himself Only once has one driven away without paying.
