^ WHat Yon yonson Ttiinks ^ 



Vel, my goodness, ay don't kin understand 

 vy for dom hav such plenty awful big rumpus 

 bout ila yeneral manager muddle. Ay tank 

 if dom don't stop deirs quvarning, au play 

 fair, dom goan to all fall in da puddle. Den 

 ay lak to know wbo goan to hole da lines an 

 keep das N. B. K. A. ban' yagon in da middle 

 of da road. 



My goodeness, Peter Peterson, he yust bean 

 purdneer to yoin himself into das N. B. K. A., 

 Ijut now he say it dom goan to hav big fiteing 

 den he tank dom hav to excuse Peter. For 

 long time ago ay read sermon in Gleanings on 

 Mr. A. I. Gleanings, he say dat Satan yust 

 lurned a new trick. My goodness, ay tank he 

 bean springing soni new trick on da oilicers 

 of da N. B. K. A. yen dom big bee-mans vot 

 love each odder i)lenty much for long time, 

 an for menny years dom bean pat each odder 

 on da liack an say, " He (Mr. Abbott) iss a 

 awful smart feller, an he iss plenty honest 

 and good tempernce man, an he iss yust da 

 feller tor yeneral manager ;" an den all dom 

 big bee-mans, vat dom call directors, dom vote 

 for him and he vas elected, and every ting 

 seems to be going so nice som a little red 

 vagon, but dom forgot to greas dat yagon vid 

 da oil of human kindness, and it seems dom 

 all vont to ride in da frunt seat. But da 

 vagon begins to run awful hea%'y, an mak 

 awful big nois an racket, an ay tank if don 

 all goan to ride in da frunt seat dom better 

 greas da frunt veels any vay, and it is nutting 

 better dan da oil of human kindness. 



My goodness, ay like all dom big bee-mans, 

 an' ay believe dom all iss good au honest, but 

 Satan is trying to slip into deirs hearts so dom 

 can't love each odder an overlook each odder's 

 faults. My goodness, ve all have faults, an 

 it ve don't overlook each other's faults, den 

 da Lord don't goan to forgive our faults, an 

 he say ye haH to go to da left hand' side vid 

 all da goats ; an den da bad man goan to ride 

 us on da goat, and it goan to go awful hard 

 vid U6, an ve be awful sorry. 



My goodness, vy for can't we love each 

 odder, and tak each odder by da hand, an all 

 vork togedder i Dom directors acknoledge 

 dom mak da mistake vot cause das rumpus. 

 Now, vy for shall other people suffer for da 

 mistake of da directors > Did not our Savior 

 suffer for us all i An' don't he say if ve 

 hate ours brother ve shal never enter da king- 

 dom of heaven * If ve love ours brodder let 

 us show it in ours akshuns, an' da N. B. K. A. 

 shal grow an flurish as da green bay-tree. 



Now let us all stop fiteing each odder, an 

 file Satan, an da slop hunny mans, and da 

 foul brood, an so on. Dere is plenty to do, so 

 let us not stay home an quvarl lak chilren, 

 but let us go out in da tield an york, an not 

 monkey roun' till it bean purdnear sundown. 

 An' if anybody vot feel lak dom von't to flte, 

 let dom lite sin au Satan. Ay tank ve all can 

 find him purty close to home. 



Ay tank now ve come to big hill, an it is 

 time for Yon Vonson to push, and it dom 

 officers vil yust tak off da break an dom bee- 

 mans vil ali help, ve vill soon be goan hally 

 hooping agin. Tak new start, hav lection 

 over, an have it fair, an all dom fellers vat 

 mak bee-papers, don't tell usforty-leven times
