nevair simpatis Sc wit err, an she
seldom git 'er wages rae by de
boss She work twanty-sam ter
t,irty our per day, an de minnit
she git troo she start agin. on de
odder han, she don't b'long ter de
local unyan so she can't put de
blam 'on Sam Gompers.
Yass, she alters do 'er dooty de
sam she ben toll by de stunts, ant
she often suit nobuddy beside 'er-
self. But at de sam tam. l tink
mos peepul wud took hees hat
off ter de OF woman if she show
more jodgmunt wen she regulate de
wedder Watts de use alters send
som'ting you don't want Wen you

We don't git.
Fer me, | recommen' de Weddcr
Buro ter TAX dat end de beezness
over an ron it ter suit de tax
payer.
Shore. wy not? Poor Muddcr
Nachar is gittin' OF an cranky,
an CRATE brite nashun lax dis wan
elaine ter be shud help 'er out be-
for she broke down wit nervus
prostrashun. She's ben on de job
mite an day fer. tree, four hun'erd
yeer all tergedder, an she can't
stood it so we'll she cud Wen she
wuz young.
In de secun' phase, de kline NV
wedder she deal out don't fit de
naborhood Were she chose ter un-
lode it. An de poor OF soul! 'Er
eyeSite amt so sharp it use ter
was. Som'tam she fale ter seen
de Cunts pullin' on dere short-laig
pants. an she squirt de rain down
jess de sam.
Yass, shore, she don't did it ter
be hatcfool, but she nevair notise
de bat-sticks Wen she open de
Sluice.
All de fans is teeckle ter deaf
wit dat kline NV meestake. an dey
cuss demself blue in de Ease, each
'cordin' ter de way he ben framed
But if de Wedaer Buro git con-
troll, evryting will be change in de
hurry. An after dey have work at
it fer few t'ousan' yeer, nobuddy
will kick wit de resolt mooch more

Vile de wedder nevair pleese no
persons at de sam tam, mebby
it's good ting ter had plainly NV it.
If de supply shud happin ron short,
we wud ron shy Nv subjick ter talk
bout Wen we meet tergedder. Talk

ligion. an if nobuddy seen de OPP
poSite way you do, I'm surprise.
But wen you sed jess half duzzen
word bout de wedder, nobuddy
deny it. YOU mehby wrong, you
mebby rite, but dere's no argu-
munt over 1t.
1t is de foolish habit NV mos
