Nobody’s Business
By Gee Mc(^
Our . supper consisted of Sardines, j
Jim forgot to fetch crackers. Our i
breakfart was also sardines. Jim for-'
got to fetch alone any coffe**, sugar,',
broad or tmtter. He said he thought I i
was to bring everything. The spring i
was 500 yards from the lodge, and so*
was the ba-throom. I was glad to get
away from the place of rest. The next
time Jim gels me up there in his ‘“nie
Summit,” he will have to kidnap me.
Ixits of folks call such as that “rough
ing it.” I call it “toughing it.” But
I’m cured. I got back home exactly 30
minutes before I would have stuj’ved
