sore to eat dinner, and you know she
was going some when she stopped me
from eating.
Everybody was sorry for me except
the lady giving the dinner. She was
glad l couldn't do any more in the
way Of eating and expressed her
pleasure at the ability Of the lady
and said she was glad l wasn't able
to eat more. l hadn't done much
l only ate four pieces of chicken
several helpings of those good old
snaps and ! have forgotten the times
l paid my respects to the potato pud-
ding and other things, but l do re-
member the five ears OF corn, don't
think she should have been so very
glad l was not able to eat. But
really enjoyed it and l finished my
dinner later on in the evening, but
sure enuf my jaws are still sore, but
believe me, l kept in SIGHT in that
talking race.
Say, fellows, did you ever have Il
girl to propose? Gee, its great, but
t makes fellow feel funny. Yes,
sir, she sure did. What did / say?
Why l said, oh, Miss ........ that
IS SO sudden, you really must give
me little time to think. l know
she wants me to say that l Will be
a brother to her, but l wont say It,
that's my trouble now. I've got too
many to be brother to, and then I'm
tired OF being brother anyway. so you
can watch mo go and tell her yes,
then it's up to her and amt going
to stand no breaking off.
