What He Missed

A CRATER had been short changing
hicks with a small circus, and the
picking was poor. The outfit hit the
South: no cotton money, and with a
bunch of one-day towns to show where
money was as scarce as violets on weedy
siding. And ii was miles to the land of
promise, and every man stony, and moth
ing coming.
Just before the concert, one afternoon
in jay jungle. the CRATER lamped Rube
coming out of the big top. He had on new
jeans, city hat, was eating popcorn out
of one hand, and carrying an umbrella,
tied with Il shoestring, in the other He
hesitated at the lemonade stand. Every
signal on his lankness was flying him for a
mark. Approach CRATER and speech:
Surely you are not going, Neighbor?
Shows not 'arf over, an Neighbor, you
mustn't miss the concert. Some gem,
Boy!'

for stickin' to an idea, once he gets it into
his head.
