Farmer Cornstub on P. D. C. Basket Ball Game. Well sir, when my boy Jeremiah went to the High School at P. D. C. I never sed nuthin’ but I thought things to myself. Wal es soon es the first two months was over he starts a howlin’ an’ yellin’ ’bout ‘Basket Ball.’ So I sez to him, sez I, “Jeremiah yew kin take me an’ yer mother to the nex’ game. Well sir, one Thursday he comes up and sez they was to be a game the next Friday. Wal, we went. When we comes within two blocks of the Meter-) olitan, 1 an' Mirandy (she’s my wife ye know) heard a screechin’ an yellin' t;t ter wake the dead. hen we comes to the opery house the noise sounded ez tho’ all the imps, witches, an’ what not hid broke loose. Jeremiah bought the tickets an’ we went in. Jest ez we comes in a group of young uns starts a yellin. 1 listened. They wuz yellin’ “Fat men, Lean men, etc.” Thar wuz one young feller yellin’ ard as he yelled “lean men” loud like and looked et me an’ laughed. I s.ez to Jeiemiah, who be that young scoundrel?” He sez he wuz a Freshman. “Wf l”, sez I “I know he’s fresh but who be he?” Tarty scon I seen two young tall ladies cornin’ in and I sez to Jeremiah who they be an’ he sez they wuz Gray and Green, two teachers in school. I sez they did’nt look it. h ex’ I heard some one yell “Hey kernel”! an I saw a little fellow bout ez big ez my thumb come runnin’ along. I never sed nothin’ but I had my idees on the subjec.’ Just then some un yelled “Hey General!” an’ a tall young feller with hair stickin’ up like a porcupine’s quills comes trampin’ along. Then I couldn’ hoi’ in no longer an’ I yelled, “I always knew our army was gom’ on the bum, but I never thot they’d hev officers like thet.” Havin’ spoken out my mind, I sot down. Then along comes a boy and sez “Hello” to Jeremiah. I sez to Jeremiah “Who he be?” an’ he sed he wuz a Sophomore. I never heard o’ thet lodge before so I kept still. Soon comes two more fellers in an’ sez “Hello to Jeremiah. Jeremiah says one wuz a Junior and the other a Senior. So I sez, sez I, sorter skeered like, “Aint he sorter young to have a Junior already runnin’ after him?” All this time the young people wuz a yellin’ an’ I noticed they all carried three cornered flags with “Prairie du Chien” on ’em. I sez to Jeremiah what they wuz for. He sez it wuz to tell the schools apart. I thot to meself that anyone could tell that school by the screechin.’ Then out comes some fellers all dressed up like in bathin’ suits. They starts in throwin’ a rubber ball thru barrel hoops as wuz tied on to two posts. Purty soon out comes two men with things in their mouths an’ starts a pipin’ some tunes. Then all the fellers steps around an’ some one yells “Cover up” an’ I sez “Its about time they did.” W’al sir, then they begins a fightin’ an’ scuffin’ aroun’ an’ throws the rubber ball thru the barrel hoops. Wal, this kept up fer some time and then some one hollered “Time”; an’ they quit. Then Jeremiah sez the game wuz half over. Arter some time they comes agin an’ goes thru the same actions. Arter a lot o’ fightin’ an’ yellin’ the feller yells “Time!” agin. Then Jeremiah sed the game was over an’ thet “Prairie” won. I sez I was glad thet they won an’ thet no one wuz killed. Then a feller sez they wuz goin’ ter be a dance an’ all wuz invited ter stay. But I sez ez I nor none o’ my family ed get up in such clothes an’ dance. An’ then they starts a playin’ an’ we goes home. Roy Schnug.
