QUI OF TIICllTOODS

Wolf Story
That winter Paul Bunyan had
more worries than he could
shake a tree at. One blizzard af
ter another had frozen work in
the woods. The weather had put
the timber wolves on meat ra
tioning. When the oxteams were at
last on the skid trails again, it
was common for big ravenous
wolves to attack them from the
rear and eat right on and up to
their horns In no time. Paul
trained his bullwhackcrs to hold
on to the leather when this hap-
Kened and prod the big wolves
ard ahead into the yokes. Then
a good bullwhacker would never
miss a trip but would goad the
yoked wolves, primed with fresh
ox meat, right on down the trail
to the landing.
Hon Collar Doughnuts
With wolf team logging, the
skiddors soon began to catch up
with the down timber and to
crowd the axmcn. Paul Bunyan
figured that, if his axmcn could
chop right on through the noon
hour, with no time off for lunch,
they could keep ahead of the
wolf teams. But the axmcn had
to stoke up somehow at noon,
else they'd have all come down
in short order with galloping
anemia. Finally, Paul figured
how to solve the problem with
a new giant style of fry cake.
The first noon Paul tried his
Invention out the axmcn saw the
mulligan sled come to the woods,
as usual. But this trip it carried
no stew or beans. Instead, each
flunky unloaded a huge rig that
looked and smelled like a big frv
cake except that it was shaped
like a horse collar. The flunkies
toted the horse-collar fry cakes
over to the working axmcn and
dropped one over the head of
each.
They were mighty big, those
first doughnuts were. They had
to be, when you think of how
the littlest runt among Paul
Bunyan's axmen broke his leg
one winter three feet below the
knee.
Chop 'n' Chaw
Well, Paul Bunyan hollered
out an order when each man had
his fry-cake collar on.
"Keep right nn chnppin',
men!" hollered Paul. "Everv
lick with the ax you take, Just
gnaw into your collar, and so
on till you've ct It all down! Got
to keep fallin' limber! Can't let
them wolves show vou up!"
It worked, as Paul Bunyan's
Inventions always did. The nat
ural chopping swing of an ax-
mun would keep hunching his
horse-collar fry cake around as
he gnawed it, and not one chop
per would miss a lick or lose a
crumb while getting his noon
meal. Log production was given
the necessary boost.
That was back in B. C, of
course B. C. I. O.
The horse collar style was kept
for fry cakes as Paul Bunyan
logged on west. How they came
to be called doughnuts is 37 oth
er stories. At that point history
ends and argument begins and
this Is no place for an argument.
