EDDIE EDWARDS, owner of
Sans Economy Store. pinch-hits
for JUei Reed Cover who is en-
ioying a well-deserved vacation.
Eddie has done this before and
needs no further Introduction TO
our readers.
WHERE does Juel get all her
juicy gossip bits that makes her
column so popular? Ours is usual
ly year Old AS we face this
blank piece of paper (and it's
blanker every minute), we can
hardly wait to see what is written.
We have no ak to grind, and if we
plug "Sams" it may make Burr
unhappy. You already have read
why you should invest in p. C.'S
future and buy share of the P. c.
Development Co. Maybe you don't
know how feverishly the Elks are

ledo, where they found no pick
pockets, and doubt if they could
pin anything on them if they did
Or we would like to tell you who
is was talking on the telephone

kid came in from wading puddles

WHAT A PROJECT. The biggest
deal we know around here is the
Turnpike that is being poured al
our backdoor Cat 100000 a mile)

know enough sand and gravel has
been hauled for that underpass or
the Fremont road that we could
have every cat-tail marsh along oul
entire lakefront filled in? Yep, big
deal.

failure in the cities system, al
easy solution has been suggested
If the Street Dept. would take the
fire hose and squirt down thu
sewers it might wash out the
sludge accumulated the past few
years and give the sewers severa
times their capacity.
