Reaching into hs pocket for his notebook and pencil, he started mumbling to himself a sort of gibberish: “Farmer, hey? Farmer—hay. Son, bootblack. Son shines. Ah, I have it.— Your Father Believes in Making Hay While the Sun Shines. And the maker of bum jokes goes contentedly on his way believing all to be well with the world.
