Advertisement From where I sit .. 4y Joe Marsh Why “Moose” Changed x 7 Last week, parents were calling Moose Jackson on the phone—and kids were hooting at him in the streets. All because Moose fenced in his field near the depot, where the kids like to play ball. Moose got sore the way folks acted—refused to budge. Then Doe Sherman, who likes to play centerfield himself sometimes, decided to “use a little psychology.” Over a friendly glass of beer at Andy’s Garden Tavern, Doce says, “Sorry this came up, Moose. We were thinking of asking you to umpire—what with your professional His Mind experiznce and all.” (Moose used to play a little semi-pro ball.) That did it! Next day. Moose put up-a stile over his fence. In return, the kids promised not to cause any damage. From where I sit, when you try to understand the other fellow’s point of view—like his personal preference for beer or coffee —and then take into consideration the will of the majority, why, things seem to go better all around.
