It Was Time to Quit

Several years ago a Missourian
moved out to eastern Colorado and
took homestead. Things looked
pretty good out in that country
when he located, but the next sea-
SON turned Of dry and windy. He
hung on, hoping for a change. but
the second year was worse than the
first. He had notion to leave, but
finally decided to stick one. more
year.
The third year, which was the last
season, was the worst Of the three.
He hitched up team Of poor mules
he still had left, got his family into
an old wagon and started treking
eastward. Finally he met friend
who had known him before he left
Missouri, who asked him why he was
coming back:
WELL" said the Missourian, Il

He Stood on His Rights

Several years ago northern Mis-
souri, farmer came to Kansas City to
spend a few days and registered for
room at one OF the larger hotels.
When he learned the price he was
to pay for the room he was stunned.
He considered II an extremely high
rate, but since he had already regis
tered. he decided not to be gutter
and kept the room.
The first night. just as the farmer
had fallen asleep. the bellboy rushed
into his room. turned on the light
and exclaimed:
"Get up! Better hurry! The hotel
Is on fret"
The man raised himself on one ell
bow, scratched his head and b1inked
at the boy. Finally he said:
well. II I get up at this time O.
night you needn't to think I'm goin'
to pay you fer this here bed. Kan
