q Let each jitney operator file a
suitable bond with the city-that

DID HE?

(Our little problem story, written
impromptu, as it Were.)
Farmer Jones was a farmer but
could not be called an agriculturalist
He had lived on a farm all his life, but
when autos began to be seen on the
rural highways, he never got in the
parade, let alone carrying a banner.
There was a mortgage on Farmer
Jones farm and while Farmer Jones
was a strong man he could not lift 1t.
When wheat was selling at S1.40
bushel Farmer Jones was buying He
had heard that farming was taught at
college but as he had never seen 1t
done, he refused to believe II. The
one thing Farmer Jones could raise
was whiskers. He had a nice crop of
these and always carried them in his
vest pocket to keep from stepping on
the ends
One day Farmer Jones woke up and
realized that he was far behind the
parade. He realized that an old dog
has a task playing the part of a pup
and decided to shuttle off this mortal
coil
Going to the barn he got a chair.
Standing on the chair he threw his
whiskers over the top Of rafter and
drawing them down on the side farther
south, proceeded to tie one end around
his neck. With everything in necktie
shape, so to speak, he kicked the
chair He was suspended in midair
or perhaps some lower.
THE END.
Did Farmer Jones whiskers pull out
or did he hang himself?
