Heard On The Rural Phone
“ Hello. Is that you Maud?
I dont see what you want all night telephone service for, when
I can hardly get you out of bed to answer the phone at seven o’clock in the morning.
Why, I’ve
got all my dishes done and the children ready for school already” .
“ Well, Ethel you would lie abed and sleep yourself, if you could lie and dream over the nice
little pile of Givens’ 2 % cash discount tickets that I have under the mattress.
Oh, you can laugh
all you want, we of course, keep our cash in the bank, but those discount tickets are mine and I
keep them where I can count them occasionally.”
“ Do you know Maud, if I was to sleep on our pile of Givens' discount tickets, I \vould have to
stuff the mattress with them and since we are just ready to buy our winter’s supply of Dried Beet
Pulp and Molasses, I expect to fill the mattress of the childrens’ bed too.
By the way, did you notice all the work that is going on in Givens’ store.
We were down
yesterday and a gang of men were hammering, sawing, pounding and doing everything but “ knock­
ing” , which last I believe is against Givens way of doing business.
I dont know what they are
making, but the inside of his store now looks like a lumber yard after a big wind” .
“ Say Ethel, did you hear about those two fellows that were arrested for betting on the com­
ing election the judge sent the Republican to jail for taking easy money and sent the Democrat to
the Insane asylum.
Tell that to Jim and good bye for I’ve got to go and feed the chickens” .
