There they were, to her disgust, with a pole and a hole in the ground. She proceeded to tell them all about it. How dared they put up a pole right in front ofher house. The property would lessen in value. She was going to complain. The foreman let her have her , head for about five minutes. Then: "I'm very sorry, madam," he said, politely, "but we're not putting put-ting the pole up. We are taking it away. It's been standing in front of your house for two years!" |
