Elmer, a handsome seagull, and
a stray kite string turned one sec

Elmer is the seagull which has
been hanging around the corner of
Eleventh and C streets for some
time now, usually seen this winter
toasting himself on the village
chimney pots. 1t is not known for
sure that his name is Elmer, but
some of the residents of Eleventh
Street have called him that on sew
eral occasions and he has never OBJ
jected.
Anyhow, this seagull named Ell
mer was trying his wings out yes
terday and was maybe looking back
over his shoulder at some blonde
seagull and didn't see this kite
string. The next thing he knew he
was all tangled up and there he
hung with one wing caught.
He made quite a sight because
anyone looking at him from very
far off couldn't see the string and
they couldn't figure out what Elmer
was doing pivoting around in mid
air on one wing.
Pretty soon Art McKinnon, Jr,
came along in the Reliable Trans
fer truck and he could see what
was wrong So he got out and
scratched his head and looked at
Elmer and Elmer just hung there
sort of sheepish like.
So finally McKinnon tied two
long poles together and then put
a knife on the end and tried to cut
the string, but the poles weren't
