a vital spot. The latter was the case
Saturday night and favored Otto Mad
sen and his party of Askovites with
an opportunity to gain admission to
the weekly Saturday night WIS Barn
Dance program in Chicago.
The Askov party had lined up at
the door of the theatre where the
program is staged and had stood in
line for considerable time only to
have the door closed in their faces
with the explanation that there was
no more room. Otto made the side
remark that it was tough that they
had come so far and could not get
in. A doorman heard the remark and
asked him where he was from. Otto
told him from Minnesota and was re-
warded with seats in the aisle for the
entire Askov party. The moral to
this is, if you must talk to yourself,
talk loud enough to be heard.
