Rome was great city in medieval
times. Nero was the kaiser, the big
boss. What he said went. Rome's
water supply was not sufficient for
an emergency and the fire depart
ment was wholly inadequate. NerO's
attention was repeatedly called to
these matters, but he needed not.
A soft job and high living had
made him fat and lazy. About all
he cared to do was to sit out in the
palace porch on warm days and play
the fiddle while a half dozen pretty
girls stood around with fans to keep
him cool and shoe away the flies. AS
was to be expected fire broke out in
Rome and soon got beyond control
of the puny fire department. Nero
saw nothing could be done to stop it,
so he took down the old violin and
fiddled while the city burned. He
did it to show his nerve.
Brothers,, we have set upon the
banks of this old creek for years
fiddling while floods destroyed our
crops to show our nerve No body
doubts our nerve anymore. We have
proven it. Now let us quit fiddling
and see if we can not demonstrate
the fact that we have something else
as we'll as nerve-something a good
deal better-BRAINS.
