The Agony Is Over
For two years Percie Thacker has
suffered but not in silence.
Two years ago he sold the city
OF Ell Centro an old truck, a truck
so old that he figured the city
would have to junk it in a month.
1Therefore he made the city a good
| price. That is, good price for
the city and not so good for Thack-
Cr
The city used that truck con-
~stantly for two years. Every time
Ohacker saw the truck, he suffered
in his pocketbook.
Why don't you take that thing
off the streets" Thacker COM
planned to Walter Heinecke every
time he saw the truck trundling
around, I'm tired of losing
money"
The pain in your pocketbook will
stop now. Thacler The city will
junk the truck.
PS.-The tires are still good.

One man chewed the other

The meat shortage sure is getting

Flynn's testimony implied the ad-
mission that public employees were
used to lay Belgian paving blocks
in the courtyard of his New York
farm, but he said they were put on
the job without his knowledge
There is no one who can say
tluthfully that I ever knew at any
