If you Want to Swim You Gotta be
Good to the Swimming Hole

Right now is when Teller needs a
friend. That is the teller who likes
to swim in the canal and knows how
the ole swimmin' hole should be
treated.
Here's what Muldrow, the ditch boss
says:
1t is necessary to warn boys bath
ing in the canal against dragging in
planks and floating objects, or lamp
ering with the gates and cages. The
living of everyone in this valley de-
ponds on these bitches and no mis-
chief can be tolerated about them
Everyone likes to see the boys have
a good time swimming, but the ditch
property must not be interfered
with. A boy who does 1t is a poor
sport and the fellows who play fan
should see that such a poor sport
plays the game square and don't
spoil the fun. For swimming in the
ditch will have to be stopped, il
necessary, to protect its operation.
