Last night we had our traditional July 4th cookout with daughter and son-in-law present. I had to tell a story on my grand dad that happened in the mid 1930's. He was shelling some ear corn and wearing only a pair of thread bare bib overalls (lucky for him or I might not be here). He stepped over a drive shaft on the sheller and his hammer loop got caught on something. He was thrown across the sheller and lost his overalls on the way. Here he was wearing only shoes and socks and out behind a storage shed. My dad would tell this story often for the lesson learned. I was one careful kid around PTO shafts.

Does anybody have a copy of the poster ... where two little boys in bibs lookin' at each other, one says to the other ...
"Been farmin' long?"
It's been re-captioned for other industries ... "Been truckin' long?"
etc.
