RANDOM REMINDER
PROTOCOL The hot weather last month delighted everyone save, perhaps, those engaged in the sale of winter clothing. The brilliant sunshine recalled, for some residents of Merivale, one of the summer’s most satisfactory moments. It was a very hot day, and two girls, with time on their hands, emerged from their house in bathing suits. In their garden they turned on a
hose, propped up the spray, and began to enjoy their shower. It was a charming scene, but beyond their lawn was a low fence, and a road, and the girls were in full view of those who passed by. They were innocent in their enjoyment, but they were something of a traffic hazard. A motor-cyclist going from west to east saw them: so did a motor - cyclist travelling
from east to west The machines collided spectacularly, but without damage to the riders, The fascinating aspect of this mishap is in its aftermath: and perhape some official statement could be made to clarify the situation. Who speaks first when an officer of the Transport Department is involved in a collision, and th« other motor-cyclist is a policeman?
