A moment later, - Walter o top of the Ford (top being turned next the ground) Louise and Edna with a fence rail apiece (thank goodness we didn’t have more to drink) manage to raise the Ford sufficiently so that Walter can dig his way out. “Now ‘ain’t’ you glad you are a poor man,” says Edna. Walter, “Why”, Edna, “Well if you were a man with lots of ‘doe’ you would own a Pierce Arrow, and think of the weight you would have had to hold.” Another party heard from, - Louises, “I’m glad too, Walter that you are a poor man, a Ford is heavy enough for me to raise. - Keep this to yourself, - Louise and Edna each got a new dress, and Walter eventually, will get a new side. ~ Kimmswick Items ~ The bachelors, old and young had what they called a bachelor’s dinner at the John OHEIM, Jr. bungalow Sunday.
