This is a natural rout# for a high- ,
way connecting the midwest and
the south." he aaid. - j

Is This News?
A Woman Changes
Her Mind ...
/
"I want a warrant for a man
who stole my car," a woman told
Sheriff Campbell.
"All right. that can be arrang
rd. now give mo some details,"
the officer said.
With the warrant, the sheriff
went to seek the man charged
with taking the woman's car. The
sheriff found the man, and serv
ed the warrant. . The man ex
plained he had borrowed the car
with the woman's permission.
The sheriff listened patiently,
and was convinced the story told
by the man was the truth.
Shortly after the warrant had
been served, the woman came to
the sheriff and explained that
the man had borrowed her car,
but had kept It longer than she
figured he should, and to please
forget the warrant, as all was
forgiven.
