These were the heart breaking
words that rang out in the still. frost
laden air about m Tuesday
In the anguished and wrought from
the soul Of our good friend DR.. S. A.
Zimmerman, and in this ne was not
alone with his thoughts, for out OF the
depths of the turned up coat collar on
the seat beside came basso profundo
Amen from Rev. Bohnhoff The mar
rative is as follows: DR.. zimmerman
was at Sanborn and Mr.. Bohnhotf Sc
cured a ride home in the doctors car.
The evening was fine, the scenery
splendid and the car hummed along
nlerrily in the frost laden atmosphere,
until about three miles out of TOWN.
It might have been less than that, but
we want to have it far enough-when
there was emitted p-z-z-z-, p-z-z-z,
from, the interior of the works, and
the car stopped. A diagnosis of the
innards by the DR.. revealed the fact
that it was not an operation. that was
needed, but some gasoline. A VIC
tim was necessary. Our genial coun-
fy commissioner Frank Heimes was
declared cit" He was routed out of
his warm and feathery bed while the
travellers begged like blazes for some
gasoline. Not a drop, said Frank.
The language that Mr.. Zimmerman
thought, and he was no doubt heartily
backed by Mr. Bohnhoff, would not
look we'll in either the Methodist or
German Lutheran church articles of
faith or fellowship, if that's what you
call 'em, but they KEEP their thoughts
to themselves, wisely. Well, said MIR.
Heimes, who, contrary to most men
who were pulled out of bed at such an
unearthly hour, was good natured and
seemed to enjoy the situation, "You
can milk my Ford car, if you want
to, and get enough gasoline to get
home" 1t was like getting drink
IN the middle OF Sahara's desert to
the travellers, and they took up the
offer, got some gas, and got home in
good shape. This is just little joke
and has happened to many people who
run ears. There's an old saying some
where in the good book 'Keep your
lamps clean and burning" The moral
applies to the gasoline tank being
kept full.
