"Tonic" Flows in Gutters
# When Truck Hits Curb
Yesterday afternoon the heavv do
llvery truck of the Keystone Bottling
Works came down. Front street,
swaying like a drunken man. The
swaying was caused by speed and
slippery streets and not by Its con
tents. for It contained nothing strong
er than a soft drink labelled "Tonic."
After some hundred feet or so of
swaying the truck smashed up
against the curb immediately in front
of the Company Store. The impact
was hard enough to throw the driv
er's assistant, who was on the rear
of the truck, down to the sidewalk,
not too gently. Another swing of the
truck, another smash against the
curb," and a dozen Cases of tonic fol
lowed the driver's assistant. Finally
the truck was stopped. The truck
was uninjured as wus also the driv
er. The assistant's feelings were
hurt, but he was otherwise undam
aged. The tonic flowed freely down
the gutters, and glass was strewn
liberally along the street.
