Did you ever see how they]|
make a car? They start oft with |
thousands of little pieces. Then |
hundreds of men using millions |
of dollars worth of machinery, |
hammer and screw and rivet |
until it all turns into a beautiful |
car. Then you miss a couple of |
payments and it turns into a fi-
nance company. |

Overheard in the Post Office
vesterday morning. Both men
were West Enders.
“Well, what're you looking so
glum about?”
“Oh, my wife's been visiting |
her mother for a month, and
last nigh! she came back home.”
“Well, gosh, that shouldnt
make you so gloomy.” {
That's what you think! You
see, I told her I spent every ev-
ening al home reading till late
when she was away, and then
this morning she got the electric
light bill—with only a $1.00
charge.”
After all, it's the rounders |
who make the triangles.
Seven men, all fellow work-
* ers, at Marietta, made a mutual
arrangement

Letters To The Editor
To the Editor of the {
Mount Joy Bulletin:
I just finished reading the
Bulletin and I was interested to
note the Chamber of Commerce |
asked for the opinion of the!
townspeople concerning the dis- |
posal of the Grade School build- |
ing and grounds. As a native
daughter of Mount Joy this is]
what I would like to offer.
First of all please keep it for |
the playground activities for
those children who live in the
south side of town so that they
will not have to cross the trafs |
fic-laden Main Street to go to|
the present park, making it nee- |
essary in some cases for adults
to accompany them.
This would be an ideal park |
for benches to be placed under
the trees and grass grown on
part of it for the older as well
as the young to sit for relaxa- |
tion without walking too far.|
More shade trees could be plant- |
| wore a velvet bonnet to match
ed. |
The foundation would be
good for a swiming pool which |
is needed very badly in the
town where it would be safer |
for younger children as well as
adults instead of some lonely
place on the outskirts of town. |
Our wonderful
we have could surely
guards, ete. as a public service | by Mrs. Ethel Broske, Mt. Joy. | visited Mr. .and
to their community.
If a swimming pool would not
be advisable then by all means |

fect, saved their eyesight and 2 |
cents apiece.
Many an old-fashioned cling-
ing vine now has a granddaugh-
ter who is a rambler.”
A little man was pushing his
cart through the crowded super |
market. “Coming through” he|
called merrily. No one moved. |
“Gangway,” he shouted. A few |
men moved. ¢ i
Ruefully he surveyed the sit- |
uation and then smiled as a}
bright idea struck him. |
“Watch your nylons” he
warned. The women
like dust in the wind.
The way traffic is today, very |
soon the only people who will |
enjoy automobile rides will be}
those with back vards.
Mr. and Mrs. X from the east
ward were riding along the]
Ironville road Sunday. Along]
the way they passed a farmyard |
and a jackass brayed. Turning |
te his wife he asked, “Some of |
your relatives my dear?” Sweet- |
Iy she answered,” “Yes, by mar- {|
riage.” — — I'll bet he's sor- |
ry he opened his mouth. i
People can be placed into
three classes: “The few who |
make things happen, the many |
who watch things happen; and |
the overwhelming majority who
have no idea what has happen-
ed.
A mother with six children
boarded a Lancaster bus on
sales day and gave the bus driv-
er so much trouble that he said,
at the end of the trip, “I wond-
er why you don’t leave half of
your youngsters at home?”
The mother looked up at him |
sadly and said, “I did.”
One of the consolations of |
age is that you can whistle]
while you brush your teeth.
Recently a single girl came
into her office and began pas-
sing out cigars and candy, both
with blue ribbons. Somewhat
puzzled and most surprised her
co-workers asked the occasion.
Proudly she displayed a soli-
taire on her left hand and an-
nounced: “It's a boy — 6 feet
tall and 185 pounds.”
’
One of our young bachelors
proposed 10 a gal recently, tell-
ing her he was a go-getter - - -

things tend to better

ple in a small community such] bride is employed at J. C. Snav-| Mount Joy R. D.
as ours. I'm sure that many peo-
ple who were born in this bor-
ough would be very happy
they could see a place of beauty
and benefit to the community
instead of everything destroyed
so that you would never
and grandparents got ‘their |
grade and high school education |
there at one time. I think that
this is one time when the people
of Mount Joy should speak up
and not let it to some who might
think of the financial gains that
would come from selling the
property and overlook the good
results that would come from |
the things mentioned before. !
How about it now, you who

other duties but still love Mount |

Postoffice News
For the past s, we |
have all been inconvenienced |
by the cold and the snow. If we
were compelled to use the car
during these days, we were well |
aware of the difficulty in getting
here and there, and many times
we were pretty much perturbed
if we got stuck in the snow, or
could not drive up close to the
curb or a parking space.
Sometimes we go out when it
few we-i
up all the errands for ope trip,
but the rural mail, carriers and
the city carriers must go every
day to the same houses the
same streets and the same door |
slots or letter boxes. We give so |
little thought to the trials and
tribulations besetting these men
always taking for granted that
no matter how the weather or
the load, they will do their job.
This is very true, but their
load could be lightened by a
wee bit of cooperation on the
part of the person receiving the
mail. For instance the cleaning
of walks making them free of
snow so the carrier can get to
vour door slot is very impor-
tant. Cleaning the approaches to
your box if you are on a rural
route or use a rural type box is|
On several instances the mail
man has not delivered the mail
where the approaches have not
been cleaned, or sometimes de-
livered the mail to a neighbors
box, where the approach to the
box is free of snow. You as pa-
trons could do much to help the
mail man by seeing that the
snow is cleaned away from your
boxes and that the walks are
free of snow. Put yourself in his
place. Would you like to carry a
load on your back and maintain
a schedule, and still contend
with bad approaches to homes|
and letter boxes. |
Every little item which tends |
to help the mail man is not only |
appreciated put. increases his |
ability to give you better ser-|
vice. Please keep this in mind, |
and if you have, inot » shoveled
the snow: away from your box, |
do it now. |

JANUARY SNOW {
We woke up Monday morning, |
When looking out the window,
We couldn't believe our eyes
For the ground was covered
over |
With a blanket of white,
And the snow was still falling |
Much to our delight.
{
We ate our breakfast quickly,
Then tuned in our radios,
We hoped to hear our school
Would be one that was closed.
We listened and we listened,
Manheim Central we didn’t
hear,
We waited for our buses,
Hoping they wouldn't appear.

grade pupils, of Sporting

SHORT CIRCUIT CAUSES
FIRE IN HOME
Fire, smoke and water dam- |
aged the home of Jose Santana,
High Street, about noon vester- |
day when fire broke out in the |
electrical wiring in the second |
floor ceiling. {
John Myers, assistant fire!
chief of Friendship Fire Com- |
pany, said the fire was caused |
by a short circuit, was confined’!
to burlap bags, laid on the attic |
floor. |

{
|
The attic floor, firemen ex- |
plained, was covered with the
bags which were laid there to!
prevent drafts {from blowing |
between sections of plaster |
board which covered the second |
floor ceiling. }
The burning bags were
thrown from the attic, firemen
reported, but the entire house
was filled with smoke and dam- |
aged by water dripping through |
the second story ceiling. Fire- |
men were unable to give an es- |
timate of the loss. |
