Why I Am Thankful Today
By MAUDE SILVERSTRAND. Atkinson
I am thankful today for the dream that became, is, and shall
be forever America. I am thankful for ancestors who caught the
vision and proved to me how much it meant to them when they
shed their blood that it might live.
I am thankful for parents who taught me to believe in hon
esty and sincerity.
I am thankful that the United States still represents God's
dream and ours that it (the flag) still beckons to a weary, heart
sick world.
I am glad I can and do believe in America.

Unwanted Meters
Shipped from Here
(Continued from page 1.)
The county judge admitted the
petition, which is lawful when
the district judge is absent. He
went farther: He issued a re
straining order which, in effect,
was designed to restrain the city
from further obstructing the in
stallation of the meters.
By this time the natives were
in a quandary. Proceedings re
sembled a game. What fouls had
been committed and who com
mitted them, if any, wasn’t the
question. Everyone wanted to
know: What about the meters,
wanted or unwanted, do we get
them or don’t we?
The petition drawn by
Grumminger named all num
bers of the council. Mayor Da
vis and Attorney Griffin as
defendants and hearing was
set for December 2. Grummin
ger charged that the Duncan
representative was "threatened
with jail" and that the O'Neill
police department had orders
to uproot the machines if they
were installed.
The petition prayed that the
court would terminate that sort
of goings-on. City Councilmen
Emmet Crabb, Joe Stutz, M. J.
Golden, L. M. Merriman, Norbert
Uhl and Marvin Johnson were
served summons.
Next day—Saturday— Griffin
filed in district court a petition
asking the court to restrain Dun
can from proceeding with the
installation of the machines.
Meanwhile, a generous flow of
statewide publicity focused at
tention on the progress of the
meter melodrama.
Just as a full-dress legal battle
was brewing, the Duncan offi
cials contacted Mayor Davis and
Attorney Griffin by long dis
tance phone, suggested the whole
thing be called off, and Mr.
Coffee ordered an O’Neill truck
ing firm to load up the equip
ment that had been in storage
lo’ these many months.
Some incoming meters, in
tended to round out the origi
nal order for 150 arrived Mon
day but were never unloaded.
cThe truck driver handed tho
assignment of rounding up the
frustrated machines which al
most-but-not-quite got into ac
tion—had initial trouble locating
them. They were finally found
at the Municipal airport.
Somewhere along the line the
storage place had been switch
ed. Someone figured they had
decorated city hall long enough
and they were removed to the
airport for some rural seasoning.
The Duncan officials express
ed hope no ill feeling existed and
that at some later date, perhaps,
meter conversations could be
renewed.
There was no Chopin “Funeral
March” as the machines passed
quietly from the scene Monday
night.
Only the rumble of the big
truck.
