surgeon, said In one of his surgical lee
lures at the state college:
1T is always In rather bad taste for n
physician to boast of being busy. Physi-
clans, undertakers and grave diggers only
cause discomfort when they allude to
good times and prosperity.
There was an old man applied to the
minister of the little village of Paint Rock
for the post of grave digger. His refer
ences were good, and the minister agreed
to assign him to the churchyard. He was
to be paid so much Il grave.
