of two letters I have received from Mr. Weaver. As you will infer he thinks he can offer me a job similar to that he mentioned two years ago. It evidently involves being on the road a good deal of the time which I do not relish. His mention of contacting other grain firms is, of course, appreciated, but, nonetheless, makes me sweat and begin to buckle at the knees. The next time I take a job like that one of three years ago you can consider me ready for the nut-house. No more of that sort of thing for this chicken; my shoulders and back muscles are rugged enough to suit me. If I can't do better than that I had better change schools or quit.
