Laughing Around the
With IRVIN S. COBB
He Knew Where to Find Paw
By IRVIN S. COBB
'X'HE gentleman from the city rented a country place in the White
A Mountains for the summer. Returning from the walk he noted, as
he neared his front gates, signs that a mishap had occurred c-. the
load. A load of hay had been overturned while in transit. It was piled
in a great stack at the edge of the highway where its weight had
caured to slide from the wagon upon which it was being moved. The
team were nibbling grass in the ditch. A fourteen year old boy, dripping
with perspiration, and plainly very tired from his exerton, was forking
the hay back on the wagon with tremendous energy.
"What happened?" asked the gentleman a somewhat unnecessary
question in view of -the evidence. "
"The wheels went down in a rut," said the boy," and this here jag
cf hay turned bottom-side up."
"Well, you look to be all tired out," said the sympathetic city
man. "This seems to be a pretty big job for one of your years, too.
Suppose you quit for awhile and go on up to my house yonder with
me and have a bite to eat and a drink of cold lemonade or buttermilk."
"I wouldn't dast to do that," said the boy. "Paw wouldn't like it
ef I didn't get this here 'hay put back right away."
"Oh, that'll be all right. Nothing is going to happen to your hay
while your gone or to your team, either. Come along with me; I'm sure
your father won't mind." .
Half reluctantly as though swayed by conflicting emotions the
youngster laid down his fork and accompanied the hospitable stranger.
Twice, during the course of the meal which was provided for him, he
paused from eating to voice his fears that "Paw" would be seriously
annoyed with him for his failure, to complete the job of replacing that
hay. Each time his host reassured him, meanwhile pressing fresh help
ings of this and that upon the young guest. , . , .
Finally at the end of half an hour or so, the boy pushed his chair
back from the table and rose up.
"I guess I'll be goin' now," he said. "Pawll want I should get the
hay forked up. I expect he'll be mighty pestered with rne."
"Why need your father know anything at all about it? said the
gentleman. . . ,
"Why, Taw knows about it already," ;yp.-:ed the youngster.
1 "Whore is vour father?" asked the cii? T-3T. "1 didn't see him as
