There Are Some Things You Can't Get Away Without

I have a confession to make, and the sooner it gets out in the open, the better I'll feel about. I don't drive a car.

Americans are broad-minded people. they'll accept the fact that a person

newspapercan be an alcoholic, a dope fiend, a wife beater, and even anewspaperman but if a man doesn't drive. therc is something wrong with him.

Through the years I've found it very embarrassing to admit it to anyand my best friends tend to view me with suspicion and contempt.

But where I really run into. trouble is when I go into a stone and try to made a purchase with a check.

It happend again last week when I went to a discount house at a large shopping center in maryland.Iwanted to buy a portable tyewriter,and the salesman was very helpful about showing me the different modeIs.

I decided on one, and then I said, \ \

\credit card, a Bell Telephone credit card d i pass to the White House.

The man inspected them all and then said,\ \ \

\

He pushed a button under the cash register, and suddenly a floor manager came rushing over.

The salesman had now become surly.\doesn't have a driver's license. Should I call the store detective?\

\license for some traffic offense?\

\

\you trying to cash a check if you don't have a driver's license?\

\time the president of the store had arrived on the scene. Fortu nately, he recognized my name and okayed the check. He was very embarrassed by the treatment I had received and said, come on, I'll buy you a drink. \ \

This was too much, even for him, and he pushed me toward the door. \
