Show Gas prices Dear Editor: The price of gas! How is one to cope? Travel is almost unheard of now except of on vacations. No more leisurely Sunday drives. It's difficult enough to make your "gas money" last from one payday to the next, just going to and from work. And have you filled up your lawnmower lately? I did and what a shock. I took my one gallon milk jug, you know the one that says 3.78 litre. Being so careful not to spill a drop of this precious fuel I filled it and was very surprised to see the results. So I did a little survey of my own. Now I have a question for the local gas station owners. Why does my one gallon of gas at these stations cost so much? Cheap Jacks on E.
