iw Type*Garbage Truck Ccmjf
'e Collect ionftroblem^j
? With summer just around the corner. Town Council last Mon
night discussed a very important issue when the question of
saqpfactory garbage disposal came up.
It is a troublesome issue right now, but when the summer sun
stains hitting the accumulation of trash at homes, it will turn Into
a."major problem. 1 - ,
As things stand now.. Murphy definitely does not collect garb
i from residents often enough. From Monday to Monday a great
of trash can be carried to the back yard by an average house
Couple a once-a-week garbage pickup with the lack of a dog
caterer for Murphy and an even bigger major problem faces
CtSncil this summer. There are many over-turned trash cans each
wjgk now, but this summer, when the smell will g(ow stronger,
sttgy dogs will make short work of over-burdened cans.
Private citizens have asked Council to add another truck and
crey to the Sanitary Department. But Council asserted the town
can. not afford the eitra, wpense.
However, what sctms the best answer to the problem was
btqught out at the last meetlo^ of Council. A new type garbage
myji body with a power, loader system such as used at Copperhiil,
Tour, was suggested as ideal tar Murphy's problem.
The body, to be mounted pn a town truck, will cost some *4,r
000. Garbage pickup with the new system will cut the time required j
to work the present mutes m. half. That will mean that garbage
pictc up can be made twice a week with the same number of work
men', That could add tip to twiee the amount of service citizens are
?now getting with the town investing just $4,000.
The new truck body seems the hest answer to the trash prob
lem. And to keep Murphy from going through an unpleasant sum
mer, it would be nice if Council could get the truck in service
before the warm months "are on us.

During the past week much of
our attention baa been focused on
the activities of our law enforce
ment officers. At this time it seer
appropriate to give praise and
much credit to our highway patrol
men who have executed their du
ties so efficiently.
In Andrews we are proud of tour
local patrolman L. H. BAKER.
The following descriptive poem,
which was recently published in
magazine, will be of interest to
you.
THE HIGHWAY PATROLMAN:
lit Ain't Easy)
If he's neat?he's conceited. If he's
careless?he's a bum.
If he's pleasant?he's a flirt. If he's
brief?he's a grouch.
If he hurries?he overlooks things.
If he takes his time?he's lazy.
If you get pinched?he had it in
for you. If it's somebody else
?he's a good officer.
If he's energetic?he's trying to
make a record.
If he's deliberate?he's too slow
to catch cold.
If ycu strike him?he's a coward.
If he hits back?he's a bully.
If he outwits you?he's a sneak.
If you see him first?he's a
bonehead.
If be makes a good catch?he's J
lucky. If he misses?he's a
simp.
If he gets promoted?he's got pull.
If he doesn't ah, what's the use?
LEARNS FAST
When Ruth Forsyth's fourth
grade pupils visited the Citizens
Bank and Trust Co. this week on
an inspection tour, one small lad
proved they learn early these
days.
After the inspection the lad was
asked what Job he would like to
have in the bank.
"I'd rather carry out that tray
of money," was the quick answer.

The Irresponsible
People shift into grade*. Just as
pees or potatoes do, only , not an .
the basis of aixe. People can be
graded according to their senae of
responsibility. At
the bottom of the
human heap are

1
who ought to be
responsible, but arpn't They can't
be depended on to do any Job
well, or at all. They never hold
any job long- .They havp no pride
in their Work, no self-respect. 1
They never carry their end of y
the log, they neither work nor ol
worry, and they are no good.
Some distance above the irre- *.
sponsible type s?e those who will J
give an accounting, qnly to H$em
selves. They don't Hfce super- ?
vision, they don't like to:,ask if r,
what they are doing satisfies any
body but themselves. They dcfa't 'A
want their work or their lives
inspected. If they suit themselves
that is all they ask. Such persons
make good artists, but. they are
too often undependable and anti
social. because* they' just don't, . <
care what otbee people think.- It Vl
I: Is a attitude, after ?B. We,
all go through this stage; toft B ?
we don't peas beyond It wg reattt y
! cannot call "ourselves grown up. y;
"la Ha Well Liked?" ?
On a higher level are those ^
whose "boss" Is popular opinion.
Willy, in "The Death of a Sales
man." keeps asking the same two ,t
questions about everybody. "Is he
liked?" and "Is he well liked?"* ,
Willy would f?el the world Caving
in on him if he could not say "yes"
to both questions about himself.
One thing that makes "Death of a
Salesman" one of the most mov
ing tragedies of our time, is that
WlUy finds out. too late, that a
man can be well liked and still a
failure. Popular opinion mghMr a
poor boss.
Above Willy'e level are those
who feel accountable, not to every
body and anybody, but to the
"best people." If they can satisfy
a small but select group they are
quite contented.
- If such a person is .an artist,
he will crave a good word from
perhaps just one discriminating
critic. If he is a legislator, he will
receive special gifts from special
people and he will vote to please
those people. These persons may
have high standards (it depends
on the kind of people they try to
plehse) but they do not often
serve the public well, just because
they really don't care for the
public .nor for what people may
.think. ? ? ?
To God Alonb
There is, after all, one final
Judge. There is One whom all men
are responsible, to whom we must
give an account of ourselves. At
the very top grade of humanity
are those who heart's deep prayer
is to be pleasing to God. This is
the highest form thst responsi
bility can take.
Now this need not be in conflict
with accountability to 'man. Only
a stupid hired man would say to
1 the farmer: "I don't care whether
you like the way I handle the
tractor. Tm working to please
God. not you." A person who will
not do his best on his job is not
likely to please the lord. Never
theless. in the long run. it is God's
voice we shall an have to hear,
and his verdict is what wiU count.
And as Jesus so vividly prophe
sied. the thing God wants most to
inquire about is how we treated
our fellow-men.
Humanity is everybody's busi
ness. No matter how well we may
please our various bosses in this
world, or bow weU we do ourpar
ticular jobs, we shall not be a
success, after all. if we have faDed
in God's, eyes,
