Nobody's Business Written for* The Chronicle by Ge# McGee, Copyright, lOith. The Hr?t < old Snap Snapped Ilar4 Well, it happened just an I expected. Kvery day for the pant month I have been making up my mind tljAt I would put alcohol In my liazleh? radiator tomorrow, but now it's too late. The tomorrow that I was going to uae did not arrive in time and now ahe'a busted from the bumper to the tail-light, judging from the way water squirts through her rib*. Naturally I betook myself to a rad-l ifttor repair shop. The man looked at my ill water toter, lit his cigarette 7 different times, ?quinted at the 6 bolts that held it intact, intimated that 68 of my tubes (or rather the radiator's tubes) were busted, but finally looked as wise as a HooverDemocrat, and said: "Old man, (and me only about 48,) I' can fix her up for $17.45." When I came to (after fainting) I coulddent find this fellow, so 1 had to buy me u new outfit for $11.08, plus postage. After getting the old bout in running trim ngain, 1 felt mighty good. Hut the next morning I saw frost on the pumpkin vines and I sensed another calamity. I ate my waffles and sorghum, put on my 1027 model j ! 11111,111 .. .1.1 ,'JL 1V Iovercoat, donned my V92H hat, and strutted out to that car that ha* hauled mo to and from thp office for 3 yeara". When I got In, I threw the switch, put my foot on the starter button, audi all that thing said was? 'zizz-zizs-t-iz-iyzuuk." I tried to push the pile of jurvk out on the street to a hill, but the brakes wore stuck, and besides that ?my wife simply ain't fit to push nothing. That woman couldn't push n moth ball off the mantel?much less move a 6-passenger car .with nobody in it bpt me. ?I walked to the office and phoned the "sejrvice station"?Ywp, that's what he said it was. They sent a man up tQ my house to examine the remains. 1 ' 1 f Ami shortly thereafter the jj|hone rang and when I poked the receiver to my ear, this is what the service man filled it with: "Your old bfttry is shot. She's grounded on 6 cells, leaks badly at both poles, terribly dry?looks like you'd let us fill her with water occasionally, it's free, you know, ^he won't- hold a charge. Will sell you a 13-cell Copenhaken Giant for. $15.96, thus allowing you $1.00 ~for your old battry, or you can jditt keep it and pay us the reg ular cash price, $15.96." So I now have a new battery and a new radiator and an old car and no money. I wish somebody would invent, an automobile with just one part to it so's when it wore out, the trouble would be over with. The horn t'roy.Ojj but so far as 1 um concerned, it can stay froze. I'll holler | at the pedestrians, from now on, ami, if they don't dodge, they can see their i undertaker.
