Show " JINX STRICTLY ON THE JOB Good Reason Why Indianapolis Man Felt JThat His Week Had Started Out Wrong. This story has to do with a man whose Christian name Is Joseph and who works at a factory down town. Monday is wash day at his home. That, be it remembered, was the day when an explosion at the Indianapolis Light and Heat company's Mill street plant cut off electric current from many homes of the city. This man arose somewhat earlier than usual, helped fill the boiler with rainwater, wheeled out the electric washer, and tried to start operations. The washer would not work. He spent two hours trying to find what was wrong wita the washer, and finally gave up in disgust, dis-gust, going to work, and arriving late, he found the power off there. "H-m, that explains why I couldn't get that washer started," he said. "It surely started my week off wrong." Indianapolis News. |
