The Penn's Grove record., 1923-11-23

as far az kanadie after thade buroweo
sum muny from the banks vault . y
muny seams tn stick tn sum teiers IKE
fize to tangle flute emma wa.
Time waz when foxes dun tnar'
traveller on foot. Sum Teller dlsidec
that he coud go faster on fore legs
than he coud on two so he rode a moss
sum othur feler made a buy sicke
SOS he coud set down an walk, o
that's two lonsum a way to go lei
enna one but oil mades.
Sum Teller cum tn the reskue wltf
an ottermoble SOS a Teller coud TAKE
the hol family an that's tina wa mos
foxes go that haint got a doler Z
mint to ride in a flieng machine.
Speaking of the dodg kar, meby eye
hadn't. but speekin ov it emma way, It Il
the only kar that eye kno emma thing
about that it ritely Manned. 1t tells q
feler tn dodg an he wants to dodg quIci
an believe me, emma Teller what goze
out now adze withouten relnfofs
dodgers, an shock absobrs, amt IN Il
no more.
Speakin of fyin machines makes me
think that eye amt a goln to by emma
ov EN- for sum feler sed that II the
foxes didn't du NOR walken an les r1dln
thaide loze tina use ov THAR feet an so
inc a goin to waite til we hav wings
stead afeat an it wunt kost a dolor a
mint tn ride. Bleve me no Teller IL a
goin to walk when he kan ride.
Wei stree, eye just KUN plum ME
forgotten to say emma thing about the
farmer. He blongs to the travelln
public. Cose he doze. If yu don't
bleve it yu jist take a pillow by the
horns an let it lead yu arond al da an
besides the farmer IL won ov the
most acomadatin felers yu ever seed.
Most fellers make yu du a daze work
in ate hours, but not sc tina farmer.
He never gives va les than ten ours tn
du it in an sum ov them vii civ yu
sixten an let yu milk ten cows while
yure Resin.
When it ranes heel let yu chop would
and wind the grind ston, he don't wont
VA tn hurre emma. Jist go fas nuf to
meat yure self at tina corners o yu
wont git lonsum.
Yes an thares the piece man two,
1ees a part ov tina travelin public. Tha
funny part ov it eye ges that the Teller
what gifts pincht don't sece nothin tn
laf at. Eye onse aXed one the wa
memry hall an he sed go in the
dor, ov corse, an eye alwaze had a lot
respect for plecemen every since.
While eye think on it, before the
ZACH string is puld in fur the mite lie
list sa a fue more words in favor ov
he boot legers. I sed a few minits
lgo that the land agint was the worst
st guy ov the hui bunch, but eye ges
we didn't ad up my tigers rite. Come
Il think on it, after duly sortin my
.vidance an doin sum more fgurin i've
UNI to the unanimus desison that for
out laury an bein the dregs
V the travelin public the boot leger
,eets the others al boiler. Folks list
it aroun an show thare teath an grin
o Sc hou slick he kan dodg the lau.
I'VE motto yu kant alwaze tel jist hou
ar a mule kan kick yu by jist lokin
t his teath.
1t don't max much oy no diferense tn
ha boot leger what he hell, only so
he other Teller puts up the cash even
he jumps in the river or spoils hiz
nap with a gun after he drinks it.
Rite here afore the kandle goze out
We manter mensun another bunch of
.olks what eye don't no nothin much
.rbout seem ize nevr bin won, tina ar
he politics man. the ones that cum
round list a fue daze afore lection an
make a lot ov fin speeches tn yu an
el yu that tina ar for the laborin man,
nut don't sa nothing erbout bein the
aborin man themselves. It woodnt
u to rap sum ov the fine things tina
a in greast paper or thade make a
ope.
About al i've got tn sa tn the travelin
public is to watch yure step for i've
that no mater how grean the
cras or how invitin the shade, no one
cams to kare about sleaping under
leth the weapin wiler so its best tn
ave a compass an glide map. SOS when
u cum tn the partin ov the waze yule
lot be like the tramp at the eros
odes. I've also noticed that when life
lams the dor in a mans face it shuts
ite.
Yours til we reach the crate divide,
THE HIRED MAN.
