Main Street Gossip ’WHEN A FELLER NEEDS A FRIEND” six months and two days since the Nickel Plate began refusing to pay us Walkertonites S4O a day penalt) for not protecting us at four rail road crossings here in the village. ' That makes 2375 days, and fortj per adds up to a neat little sum ot $95,000. Oh yes, we had a leap year in February and that makes forty dollars more. W‘‘ understand the railroad company has been trying to make a set tlement wfth the town dads. it seems that they want to turn the railroad over to the town to operate through the corporate limits but they put an attachment clause or something on the contract which makes the town take over Clyde I’ish and Johnny DeMyer, too. That has the town wiseacres stumped, for the reason that they don’t know what to do with these boys. Al though the hair is slightly tinged with grey, methinks there’s a lot of service in these veteran railroaders yet. Then, too the coal loss would be considerable at certain times of the year. Buck Teepies thinks that they could control that part of it He advocates putting som>’ coal scales down by the tracks some place and put a couple men on night duty. Then when the coal boys load up their trucks, they could ask them to drixe on the scales and charge them for the coal But Dutch Chan y is afraid of the ‘•charge” business. He’s holding out for the “cash and carry” system. Vern Hardeubrook is hesitating a little on the deal, cause, he says, “Suppose we have a wreck on our railroad like the BO’s did. (Go • gosh that “BO” sounds bad) How would we get it cleared up?” Atty. Roy Sheneman answered that one right off the bat. Say- the Attorney, “We ll just ask my brother-in-law. John Clark, and he’ll be glad to bring his men over and help out his home town, and I b» t it wouldn’t cost us much either.” But Joe Fitz is a little sk> ptical abo ;t that. He's afraid he can't spare John that long . . . When up pip. • councilman Roy Hostetter. “Boys. I go*t it. When we have a wreck. I'll just run a few Allis Chalmers down there and it won’t be no time at all until we'll have it all clean I up. Gosh, wrecks is duck soup to equipment like we got, especially with Louie doing it.” Vegetable few street cars on the tracks so h*‘ can make more trips from his patch to town. Lucky Claude Stull.
