New Equipment for Gassers

1t has been rumored that the Gas
company had to buy its employees
some new equipment so that they
could read Col. Bells gas meter.
The new equipment consisted of a
flat-bottomed scow, two oars and a
propeller.
1t seems that the last time Russell
Brown, one of the gassers, went to
read the Colonel's meter, he wasted
so much time waiting for the tide
to go out that Mr.. Gilbert thought
it cheeper to buy the boat and &C
cessories. Russell took his horn
along and while waiting for low tide,
practiced on the cellar steps with his
cornet until Col. Bell dropped some
fashlight powder in the valves.
The following picture was taken by
the Col. just after Russell had dis
covered the powder, and catches him
in the act of welding wicked look
ing bolo knife. The Col almost got

Jim Painter is getting out his rod
and tackle, his sipkers, flies, and
reels, in preparation for the coming
vacation. And in order that he may
not be behind the times, he is practic-
ing also on his "fish stories," with the
result that he cornered the following
in Harned's Drug store: Betty and
Andalusia, the gold dust twins; Bus
ter Keaton Neil Fraley, Cot Nc
Comas, "Poky" Shaw, Jerry Stanton
and of course Bill Frazee, all of whom
are active members in the Amalga-
nation Society for The Oppression of
Work.
He reeled off the following story in
fine style:
About two years ago 1 was plying
my rod in Dunkard Lick. While
batting my line the hook caught my
watch and it was tossed into a deep
hole. Time passed, and last year 1
returned to the same spot. l baited
my line and was quickly rewarded by
an eighteen pound catch. Admitting
it l noticed swelling in the gill of
the piscatorial prize.
Annoyed, l hastily split open the
fish and found that the swelling was
caused by the watch 1 had lost the
year before. After that l was not in
the least astonished to find the watch
running and almost in perfect time
The fish had apparently attempted to
swallow the watch but the stem had
stuck in it's gill and the movement of
the gill had kept the watch wound"
This proves that the time spent in
fishing is never really lost.
