70 ILLINOIS STATE DAIRYMEN'S ASSOCIATION 



O'Hair said a dollar and the clerk said 'what in the hell do 

 you want more, a bull fight.' " 



Mr. O'Hair asked the dairymen this afternoon down at 

 the school room to bring their wives out in order that they 

 might enter into this business of dairying. You know once 

 upon a time at a dinner party they were discussing whether 

 or not the ladies should enter business relations with men, 

 and the men gave as their reasons and said they should 

 never be allowed to enter the business of men because they 

 never could keep a secret and one of the ladies said, 'That 

 is not so. I have not told my age since I was twenty-five," 

 and he said, *'You will spill the beans one of these days," 

 and she said, "I guess not when a lady has kept her age 

 twenty-five years she will keep it the rest of the time." 



If I did not know the&e men so well and did not know 

 them in their business relations I would think of them very 

 much in the way of three little boys who were supposed to 

 have gotten rid of one of their pets. They were very good 

 friends and they hal been going to church through a re- 

 vival and they had three pets, one had a little bantam 

 rooster, the other had a Poodle dog and the other a little 

 Tommy cat and they preached and got them converted 

 and the next thing they wanted to do^ was to baptize them. 

 Each boy had to baptize his own pet and they took them 

 to the waters edge. The little boy who had the bantam 

 rooster waded in and pronounced the ceremony and put 

 him under water and the little rooster crowed. The little 

 boy with the poodle dog waded in and said his story and 

 put him under water and the little poodle dog came up and 

 flopped his ears and coughed. The little fellow who had 

 the Tommy cat waded in and pronounced the ceremony and 

 about the time the little Tommy cat saw where it was go- 

 ing he began to claw his hand and he came out crying, and 

 they held a consultation as to what to do with him, some- 

 thing must be done with him, so one of the little fellows said, 

 "ril tell you what we will do, we will just sprinkle him and 

 let him go to hell. (Laughter) 



Now we are all trying to secure human happiness. 

 What might be my pleasure might not be yours. You know
