We are planning to attend the National Threshers Reunion. Mrs.
Ritzman will be along and do the driving and we expect our stand
will be in the same place that it was last year, although we have
not made arrangements. We’ll be somewhere there. The attendants
will be Mrs. Ritzman, Mrs. Schaeffer, and likely others. We’ll
be looking for you and appreciate your patronage.
Elsewhere is the announcement of the C. Aultman History written
by Mr. Bixler. We are quite proud of this book and recommend it
very highly to you.
We just read in the American Thresherman in 1910 of a man in
Indiana driving through a little town with his rig, had an accident
with a horse and buggy. He got scared and thought he would get away
from it so he got on the engine, opened the throttle wide and went
through the town as hard as he could go. And thus became the first
hit and run driver. And the interesting thing is, he could only go
at the most – 2 miles an hour.
We just read of a minister who buried his fourth wife. A lady
stepped up to him and asked, ‘How did you do it?’ And he
said ‘Don’t contrary them, they can’t stand
it.’
