Cloud a False Pronhet2

And Col Ike Cloud is worried today.
You may have noticed him pacing
nervously up and down the streets.
Old friends meet him to pass the time
Of day but the Colonel sees them not.
The real trouble is that Col Ike is
doubtful as to what may be his fate
on the morrow. So interested did he
become in such reflections that early
this morning he called Dr. Eskridge
cYer the phone and requested him to
look in the Bible and see what was the
common fate Of false prophets "You
see it's like this" said Col Cloud q
have prophesied a rain for tonight, and
at present it doesn't look extremely
favorable. l may get seriously into
trouble, but / will stand hitched and
want to take whatever punishment is
my due Or. Eskridge replied that he
would look the matter up and report.
TN assure you, you'll get off as light
as possible in case the rain fails to
come" said DR.. Eskrldge
