Breaks For The Motorist
At\ amusing, and also significant, eotii men fury on,
the kind of service we expert from service stations
is found in a sign a- New England operator posted
when he took :V vacation. It read: "Wo atv closing
up for two weeks. The services vv, l usually. provide ;
may he had at the following places: 1. General In
formation —front cop oh heat. 2. Cokes—at-.corner
drugstore. 3.. Rest Rooms—at home. 1. Change—a
hank across the -troet. 5. P tty Loan —also at bimh j
across the street. 6. Charity—at County . farm. .
7. -Matches -from passerhy. s. Daily Nevy-sp.-ipeis—
front newsboy. U. 1 ,oat’ing—in the. street,’’
Actually—all humorous exaggerations to otic side-,
—the topical American service, station knows no sti
t'eriors and feu*, equals. It is -ymlx'lie of our high
ly competitive oil .'industry ' n particular—and of nut',
free system of doing things in gen* ,-ai The « ontras
with the. service stations in most, other countries is
striking. When the retired president of. the Auto
motive Safety Foundatiott returned from a Kuiupetm
motor trip last summer he was asked about the for
eign stations, and lie said: -‘Nobody wiped nvywind
shield or cheeked tny oil. They have"simply never
heard of sue!) a thing as -erviee elver there. What
do you mean, were the rest rooms clean? Th, y
never heard of rest rooms . . As, for the TBA- -as
we - caff tires, batteries, and ■.• accessories sales—they
never heard of that either.”
The American motorist realty gets the breaks.
Real Satisfaction
Because so many people believe it is miitv blissed
to give than to,receive and realize satisfaction in
helping to make others happy. 210 persons in Clio
wan County wore made happier or Christmas. Var
ious groups presented presents to 50 families repre
senting 210 p. isons who otherwise would h.ave had
a less joyous day.
Os course, many moreiinfortiiii.it ' persons were t -.
member,',! by individuals and other groups. >n that 1
the spirit >f Ulifistnias. - it should lv, permeate,l
'lie entire county. There is no remuneration which
can take the place of the real satisfaction one , xperi
enoee in helping line,, mote unfortunate than our
selves.
