safety First.

On a warm summers after
noon a resident was talking to
a travelling ventriloquist who
was going to put on a show that
night in a little Southern town.
An old darby approached. He
was balancing a clothes basket
on his head from which pro-
trudsd the front paws and head
of a large turtle he had jus,
caught in the river.
Let's have some fun with the
old darby" said the ventrilo-
quist. So he threw his voice in
to the basket: What are YOU
going to do with me?'
The old darby stopped and
rolled his eyes toward the bas-
ket and then moved on.
Again the question was asked
supposedly by the turtle: "whar
are you going to do with me?"
The old man stopped and
asked: Did you speak to me?"
The voice replied: Yes, I said
what are you going to do with
me?"
The old negro. a picture of
fright. replied: "T's gwine ter
drap you right heahw And he
dropped basket and turtle and
fed.
