"Bought it mainly to haul eggs," Whitey told me. "Take, out the rear seat and there's as much room as a truck. Put it back, and I can take all the kids on the Hill to school. "In warm weather," he continued, "I can slide back the roof and get sunshine. And when I go hunting, I'll wind up the glass partition and the dogs can't lick the back of my neck!" From where I sit, things aren't always what they are at first glance. "More than meets the eye" is often true whether you're talking about Whitey's "cab," or a new neighbor down the street. Give things a chance to be proved... give eyery man a chance to be heard. Sit down over a glass of beer or buttermilk and get to know each other. It's the American way... a road of "tolerance" we all ought to ride on.
