Finally, on September 28, t
dump truck belonging to J. C
Greene of Boone caught Arc
when Greene dumped a load
of traah from It onto a mall
flre at the city traah dump,
and then was unable to get th?
truck out of reverse gear in
order to move it away from the
newly-fed blase. Quick work by
the Boone Fire Department
kept damage to a minimum.
Such accidents are humorous,
of course, only when viewed
with the detachment brought on
by the passage of time. Cer
tainly they are not funny at
the time of their occurrence,
and we can only be thankful
that no serious injuries resulted
from those to which we have
referred in this article.
It is to be hoped that such
curious twists of fate may be
avoided by Wataugans in the
future.
The chief business of every
citizen should be to live his
life correctly, without telling
too many people what to do.
