JUD AND HIS BURRo.
Santa Fe Shop Boys Have Fun With
the Foreman of the South Shops.

"Say-what are all you fellows lined
up there for2 Didn't you ever see an
animal of this kind before2" It was
Jud COe, foreman of the south shops
speaking. and the fellows referred to
were about 20 of the machinists who
were all lined up near the doorway of
the shop watching Jud approach. Such
interest in the approach or their fore
man would ordinarily be out of order
but circumstances alter cases and Jud
and his animal were attracting almost
as much attention as a circus parade.
And well it might for there was Jud
seated astride of a little burro looking
as proud as a small boy with his first
pair of trousers
'.Where'd you get him?" asked one.
Ought to trim his ears" said an
other
Amt you afraid that you will fall
OFF," asked a third, but it was a foolish
question as Jud's feet were hanging
down within two inches of the ground.
Look out Jud, there comes a switch
engine, he'll run away with you" but
the speaker did not know that Jud had
hired a small boy for five cents TO walk
along in front with ear of corn in
order to keep the burrO going, and whom
he had discharged just before getting
in sight of the shops Kun away WY
Jud was hoping that he could devise
some plan to get the burro to go faster
than a walk
You fellows think you're having lots
of fun. don't yOu.' said Jud as he Slip
ped off and tied the burrO to a post
You must have an idea that I bought
this for myself. Well. I didn't. I am
just brea king il in for my little boy.
I sent all the way to Mexico for this
burrO and as soon as get him broke
in you fellows will all be wanting
ride
Now don't get funny with him." said
Jud as they all cirCled around with
Jud and his burrO in the center. and
one of them hung coupling pin on the
burro's ear while another tied a rope
TO its tail and started to tie the other
end to the post. You fellows would
feel funny if he should kill few" but
the whistle blew just then and they all
rushed TO work
At noon Jud started out to get his
burro to go to dinner but the burro was
not TO be found
Where's the mule said one as he
came up to where Jud was standing
''Oh, I don't know This monkey bus
mess makes me tired. Some of those
fellows have probably taken him. and
Jud started to walk home, but just then
a familiar sound foated out from the
rOundhOuse. Awe kee. awe kee. awe
kee, awe he, awe e. and smile lit up
Jud's face
Taken him in there, haven't they"
said Jud, as he went into the round
house but no burro was to be seen.
