One of the best-liked farmers
In these parts Is Bert Childers!
And he has the best way of
beatln' the man shortage, too.
Come husking time, Bert in
vites all of his farmer neighbors
over to have a glass of beer.
When they ask politely
"Where's the beer?" Bert points
to a bucket-full of frosty bottles
In the middle of the field.
"All you got to do." he says,
"1* work your way out to it"
Well, Bert'a idea has caught
on all over the conn try side.
Folks are pitching In to help
their neighbors harvest grain,
and fruit, and vegetables ? and
are taking their reward In soci
ability when the Job's done.
And from where I sit, that's a
mighty healthy picture of Amer
ican life ? people working to
gether to get in the food this
country needs ? and afterwards,
slttln' around like good friends,
over a moderate glass of whole
some beer. I'm for it'
