﻿CLEVER T-BONE HAS LIFE’S THRILL
(T-Bone Slim)

Rumor has it that T-Bone Slim starved to death on the “wheatline”— this isn’t strictly true, in the sense given out by sympathizers. Any celebration in commemoration of the event is premature and should be discouraged from the start. No one is more disappointed than Slim. 

Salvationists here assured Slim that his chest, swelling out between his shoulder blades, will be made straight as a surface plate in the next world — Death, where is thy sting? 

Let it be noted, Slim got round shouldered looking for work. It’s a wonder he didn’t lose his eyesight. As it was, when he got back from Dakota the milk on the doorstep did appear to be blue. 

For some time past society has failed to find work for its victims — still it expects us to live by work — still, it puts the onus, of finding work, on us. 
— Deliberately stolen.
