From where I sit Jy Joe Marsh When I drop into Sam Abernethy’s store, I usually come away with something worth rememberin’. Sam’s our town’s most successful storekeeper and he’s not one to do much talking, unless he figures he’s really got something to say. Last evenin’ he said plenty. * * * Stranger was in the store. And Ben Ryder, Homer Bentley and some others were talkin’ about the scrap collection when this feller sort of horned in ... “I hear these scrap collections are a lot a bunk,” he says. “Fact of the matter is, this junk they’re gathering ain’t no use for makin’ steel. Just a waste of time gettin’ it together . . .” us, -where did you get all this in side, private information?” Well, sir, I never saw Sam so mad since Lem Martin’s dog chased the < at into the pickle bar rel. And I guess I never saw a man crawfish out of a place fast as that fellow did. * * * Thinking it over afterwards, I came to the conclusion that Sam’s got the real system for handling folks who throw facts and figures around free and easy like.

And he wasn’t kiddin’l “Tell Lately I’ve been asking these folks the same kind of questions that Sam asked that rumor- mongerin’ stranger. Try it yourself, next time you hear anybody mak- 1 ing derogatory remarks—whether it’s against the war effort... or just against beer. ^oe Copyright, 1942, Brewing Industry Foundation Get Suited for Fall!
