CONCERTED ACTION
The Gust family at Yorkana, Philadelphia, hit on a novel way of preventing the telegraph and telephone company from erecting a telephone pole on their property. When an employee stopped the digging of a hole, Mr. Aritus Gust stepped into it As soon as the second had been dug a few feet away, his wife sat down in the second hole. When the six members of the family were standing, sitting, or lying in as many holes, the work gang gave up. They erected the pole on other property.
