February 16, 1918 Tribulations of a Garage Manager EAR EI Any man that runs a D garidge Ed is a good eel like a doctor or an undertaker or a pick- ket or something becaus you aint got no time you can really call all your own. Your work is always protruding itself upon you. Youve bin riting a lot of sarcasket letters about how much work you do and I down hear taking it easy but I guess if you had to content with what I do be sides all the head work and planning the foot wood be on the other shoe. I couldnt go to church if I was invited becaus everybody has to take a hand at the garidge Sunday morning and if you want to take a little ride for yourself Sunday afternoons with your girl or your wife if it is after you are married you got to go disguised or before you have went a mile someone says well well how fortune it we were just going to telefone for some- one to come and see what is the matter with our car then your ride is postponed on account of a busted fan chain ora cracked spark plug or something. If you don’t carry a hole garidge full of tules and a few hundred pounds of spare parts and tires they bawl you out and then what kind of a hit do you look like to your girl or your wife if you are married, Ed. Why Ed one fellow when I was way out in the country says to me after I had stopped when I was taking a man on a ride in a car to try and sell him one have you got a spare pinion geer with you mine has three teeth gone and it is chewing up my differenshell. I said no I forgot to bring one today. He said I should think aman in your bisness would use a little four sight and have some of those things with him when you go riding then you could serve the people who need it. I says yes that so I just passed a man that’s horse just tipped over a lode of hay if I had of had enough four sight | would of had a pitch fork in my car and then I_ would of been of reel service to him. I tride to give a good time to fillis the girl who wated on table at our place and an old colledge chum of hers. She says to me youv kep me bissy declining invitations to ride with you ever sense you lit hear now trot out your trusty flivver and I and loose eel my old colledge chum will take a chance in as much as there seems to be no alternative if I want to show her around at all. You see she had been waiting ail this while so to share her good time with her frend thats why she aint went with me before. You can see how she is always thinking of somebody else.

CLYDE - MALLORY LINES PIER 36, NORTH RIVER, NEW YORK Boston: 192 Washington Street Philadelphia: 701 Chestnut Street New York: 489 Fifth Ave., at 42nd St. -and I borrow the best car we had in for or something and leave us see a little of repares and start out to ride taking the the country? I made up my mind rite country roads so as not to mect the man whose car it was I was in. First shot off the bat I meet a man who trades with us he is one of those fellos that does his own repairing and comes in and borrows your valve lifters then bys his oil by the gallon of the oil man direct. He says why hello Ima I wish you wood look at my dis- tribiter it doesnt seem to brake the juce well I get out and stick a piece of paper back of the little lifter and then she goes O. K. He thanks me which is kind of him and I am free to resume my ride which is fine for two or three miles then another machine which is standing side of the rode waves his hand and says I’m glad you came along let me take your jack or change this thing you sold me for a tire I get up and lift up the seat and get a jack and give it to him and says I am hurrying out in the country to keep an appointment. Fillis and loose cel are getting kind a sore and fillis says this is worse than sight secing on a wheel barro cant you borrow a full beard or a mask then that Ima would suspend our rode service for the day so when we passed the next a peel for assistance that loomed on the horizen I was going forty miles an our and leaning over the op- posite side of the car. Its a pretty hard bisness Ed when you got to hide your face to get a little vacation but thats howit is. Fillis says next time she goes to ride with me I will have to wear a showfors uniform becaus she dont want people to think she has alienated mentality, you can see how sensitive she is Ed. Yours truly, Ima Nutt—Mcor. —Horseless Age.
