DRUCi STORE COWBOY (Truth is straugei’ than fiction) Three cowboys sat with their lieads on tlieir vests, And tlieir elliows at rest on their knees. They vere tired of talking and needed a rest, So they sat in delightful ease. A girl passed by, and a shapely form Was all that they were to see; Hut she let slip her purse and dropped a coin, .Just after she had passed by me. Breeden and Burks were hurt in the I ' ush, As they both ran out through the door; Leonard found the coin and got wet in the slush. As he hunted around for some more.
