Some Words Regarding the Servant Problem
BY RING LARDNER

Like for inst. one of my children.
or Riddles as / am learning to call
them. was having birthday party
and I got home from a hard days
work with a niblick just when the re-
freshments was being served.
Well one of the guests had brought
en- their mother along with them and
her and the woman of the house was
having a quiet dish Of ice cream. cake
and chocolate in the living rm. The
Japper pro TEN was in the rm. walt
ing on them and I was asked did l
want what they was having. so ! says
no but 1 would like bottle of what
we jojkingly call beer
may as well eXclaim at this pit.
that the Japper of the day was boy
name Yamas which nine out of 10 of
them goes by that name which is
probably short for Pajamas.
Well any way the Mrs. says Mr..
I-r don't care for no ice cream,
cake or chocolate Yamas. but you can
fetch him in a bottle of beer. Well 1t

Well the one before that Yamas
was a boy name VIM. about who !
wrote you before and he held the
office of chamber maid besides waiter
and the one thing he hated was
empty clothes baskets. Whatever
you left laying around your rm. when
you went to breakfast, why he would
throw it for a basket.
Now when I am going to play golf
I wear different kind of sox and shirt
and can also brag that 1 have got
pair OF g-rs which l wear one pair
for golf and the other for the home

But the sox and g-rs and shirt
which I amt going to wear that
morning, why I genally always leave
them somewheres in the rm.
