Heard On The Rural Phone
Say Maude, I have something dreadful to tell you. Yesterday I was canning some peaches
getting ready for the Exhibit down at the East Clackamas County Fair, and I had just finished filling
ten jars when Willie came running along and run into the table and upset six of them and broke them
all to pieces, and now I’ve got to go and buy some more jars and I expect I’ll have
to pay about two prices for them” .
“No you wont either Helen, if you get them down at Givens for I was there and got three
dozen yesterday and the price was just the same as it has been this whole season. Givens has
always got a price that’s right on everything. And say you aught to see the new improvements
he’s making down at the store” .
“ I suppose you are getting the baby fattened up for the Old Fashioned Baby show are you?
Well dont forget that you have to take a solemn oath to keep the peace even if your baby dont win” .
“Say did you hear that story they are telling around about the folks that went
down to the hop fields” .
“ No! Tell me about it” .
“Oh Gee! I wouldnt dare tell you over the phone, for I think there are a number of receivers
down already, and so I’ll wait, until the first time I see you and then tell you” .
“ Well Maude I’ve got to go now for Henry is already to start down to Givens Store,
after some feed and groceries and I am going along to see that he dont hold out on my 2"o discount
for you know thats what me and the kids get for our fair money.
Good Bye” .
