Burrell's Offers Reward For Those Stealing Accessories Since 1950, several thousand dollars worth of automobile parts and accessories have been pilfered from Burrell Motor Company lots and this week the company offer ed a $100 reward for information leading to the arrest and convic tion of persons connected with the thefts. Leroy Berrong, Burrell's sales manager, said most of the steal ing took place on the lot next to Sossamon Furniture Company and the lot behind Burrell's garage. Such items as wheels, tires, ciga rette lghters, and, sometimes ra dios, have been taken, Mr. Ber rong said. The University of North Caro lina^ School of Medicine last year instructed 505 dental, pharmacy and nursing students, plus 108 non-medical students. Just as I figured. I really walk ed into IT with last week's column on ladies' hats. The newspaper had no more than hit the street than the tele phone started ringing. On the oth er end of the lines were women: women who agreed with some of my observations, women who thought I was being unfair, wom en who wanted to know if I plan ned a survey of male knees Jut ting from the hems of Bermuda shorts, and women . . . well you know how something like that can get out of hand. One member of my church was ; slightly miffed. She recalled I sat behind her in church a couple cf Sundays back and was convinced I used her chapeau as the model for my GARBAGE CAN LINER. I was probably the most start led by Mrs. Margaret Ordway. She faced me dead on the street, face serious. "And Just how would you classi fy this hat I am wearing," she asked. "Well, Mrs. Ordway," I said, view ing the piece bf felt with a prac ticed eye. "It definitely has char acter." I was fully expecting to get the seat of my trousers chewed out by the three dogs she had with her, but I knew I had weathered the encounter when she chuckled. "Would you believe this hat is 54 years old," she asked. "Frankly, yes I wou ..." I start Brady's BLARNEY By A Brady Called J. P. ed. < One of the dogs looked up at me hungrily.) "Well it is." she continued. "I bought it in Switzerland . . . it's a real alpine hat ... of course, you would never know it now. I long ago removed the braid and feath ers from it." And at this point. I swear never to talk about ladies' hats again! jpb A woman informed me in no un certain terms that the skillful art of Tobacco Chewing is nowhere near its end here in Macon Coun ty. ?"Just try to make it through the spray of Main Street some Sat urday, especially in the vicinity of the courthouse," she challeng ed. jpb An intriguing postal card arriv ed in my mail this week. Prom Paris, France, yet, with a picture of the Eiffel Tower. "Who in Paris would be send ing me a card?" I asked myself, thumbing through my mental store of French la femmes etc. Then I read the message. "Bonjour" it began. "This card via 'Gay Paree' has gone far out of its way to reach you . . . our way of reminding you that here at your neighbor hood ..." At your neighborhood? Yep. the card originated right here in Franklin. It < along with hundreds of others) was sent out by Pranltlin Qulf Service, (tamp ed In Paris, and remalled. That's a mighty clever way of letting customers know you're in terested In 'em. One hundred gallons of water are required for the production of a single ear of com.
