A fellow sees some funny sights as he makes the rounds after news each day. This morning we passed the Page Blackburn drug store and there in front we beheld Pat Parrish handling a window brush, actually working. As this is a gross breach of professionalism among newspaper men we challenged him and he plead guilty and actually dared us to mention the fact in the paper. Pat says he needed the money, and Mr. Blackburn neded the windows washed, so they compromised and there you are. It’s awful.
