Evening Republican, Volume 22, Number 138, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 12 June 1919 — Too Busy. [ARTICLE]

Too Busy.

A new suit of clothes was bought for Alfred, age nine, so that he might look as well as ail the other boys In his Sunday school class. His other suit was good enough to wear to town and to visit his relatives; but not to go to church. So a very expensive suit was bought. And with the suit he got a ball and bat. Mother carried the suit home and Alfred carried the ball and bat. He was swinging it from side to side when he suddenly said: “You can take /he suit and hat back if you want to, mother. Now since I've gotten this ball and bat I'll probably be too busy Sunday mornings to go to Sunday school any more.”
