me and up the street.
I could not follow him, angry as I was, for I have to pay respect to speed laws in our town, and the young heathen was already more than a block away before I realized how he had skirted my left end for a touchdown with the jalopy.
Then I went to the -police station, with three counts against the young heathen. Illegal parking, speeding and driving without brakes.
A few minutes ago the Chief of Police called me. That car, he told me, belonged to the high school son of a friend of mine. Did I want to press the charges against him? I thought it over.
"No, I guess not, Chief. Just call the lad in and show him the danger of driving and parking as he does. You might also tell him that he would certainly have been arrested if he had been less fortunate in choosing his father.”
So now I realize that I was a bit hasty and perhaps I was a bit overindignant when I told him about his terrier bumping into my car. Perhaps I am wrong in not forgetting that he did not even say “Sorry,” when he saw what he had done. But,'I don’t know. And I can't get myself to believe that I was to blame for being in his way when his car failed to stay put where he tossed it Good old Adam!
