A stitch in time saves nine
It was the twentieth of January. It marked the birthday of linesman Ravi. The man was turning fifty. So his wife and children had arranged a birthday party for him.
They requested him to return home early.
Ravi was an honest and hard working man. He had been working as a linesman for the last thirty years of life, There was no complaint against him.
On the twentieth he reported to duty as usual. He asked to be let off early on account of the party. His supervisor willingly granted him permission.
Just before finishing for the day Ravi did his routine check of the line. He was about to leave when he noticed a pencil line crack in the line. The crack was almost invisible and could be left unnoticed. It would have saved Ravi a lot of trouble and time.
But Ravi believed in the saying ' A stitch in time saves nine'.
He consulted his Supervisor. He worked hard on the line, stopped all the approaching trains.
When he finished mending the line it was past midnight. His birthday and its party was over.
He came home very sad and tired. He was afraid his family would volley him with scolding.
But to his utter surprise his house was all lit. His supervisor, some of the high officials of the Railways, the Mayor were all there.
They congratulated him as his labour had averted so many accidents. If hadn't mended the line in time the devastation would have been catastrophic.
They all applauded his belief in the saying A stitch in time saves nine.
