T'irst°the good Samaritans.The Story illy began one night last winter. X have an ancient and venera- ble wooden garage, which bears on both sides of the entrance the honorable scars left by my wife and daughter as they tried at various times to get tat car. into the garage or out My wife is the only person of my acquaintance who can try to back a car out of a garage and get it wedged kitty-corner across the building. On several occasions I have almost had to have the garage demolished to get the car out. Anyway, on this. night last winter my wife and a friend were trying to close the garage door. This 'door is as old as the garage, which will probably never see forty again. The door is not exactly electronically con- trolled. It is -a massive thing, about six inches thick, of hardwood. It would coat about a thousand dollars to build today. The chap who installed it was quite ingenious. , He installed a couple of rail,%, some pulleys, and two huge weights at the end of some heavy wire. While the door could not be raised and slid back with couple of fingers, like those in a modern garage, a strong man, with a good heave, could get it up and sliding back along the rails. I am not a particularly strong man. In fact, I am a weak one, in more ways than one, as my wife could tell you. As a result, I usually left the garage door open. I couldn't see the point in all that heaving and hauling. This annoyed my wife. In the fall, leaves blew into the garage. In the .winter, snOW blew in.

They gave a great heave, the wire came off the pulleys, and the door came off the rails. Fortunately, the car was not in the garage, or I'd have been looking for a new car.
