Title	If the city were to base the valuation of the traction company on the basis of this week's service
Creator	Darling, Jay N. (Jay Norwood), 1876-1962
Date Original	1913-09-25
Contained Text	Mebbe we can catch one 4 blocks south; You might git one 6 blocks south; If you want a center street car - this aint it. The Company's changed its mind this morning; Center Street; But this isn't within 10 blocks of my house! What do you think this is - a parcels post? Walk 13 blocks east and take a valley junction car till you get to a little red school house and then you'll only be 4 miles from home; How can I get home? traction company; Well now you can wait here for a couple of months till they get this track fixed and take a street car - but a better way would be to take a train to Chicago and get home by the interurban - I'm looking for the simp who claims the street car equipment is worth four million dollars!
