BY AN OLD TIMER

Last night was our first night out
at chautauqua.
That is, it was the first for year,
for this is about the tenth tript that
has been made to the park along about
the middle Of August
We had all the stuff ready Thursday
night, and when we went to work Fri
day morning it was all out on the
front step waiting call from ''liz'
zy' that did not come. Finally we
hailed driver and one OF the bunch
stuck with him until all Of the stuff
had been collected from various parts
of town, and hauled to the tent at
chautaudua.
Then we let him go, only to find aft
er he left that one Of the cots was for
gotten. Then came a half hour OF
telephoning and the final promise that
the cot would be out that evening. 1t
came alright, for Joe is good deliv.
eryman.
Can't Withstand Game.
We started to put the stuff up in
the tent, about $50 o'clock but then
the noise Of the ball game across the
street--and the stuff was off. Four
OF US went to the game, and left the
cots piled in the middle OF the floor,
the bed clothes on top Of that, and the
moon" hanging by one wire from the
top Of the tent.
