THE DAILY SHORT STORY
Born
Salesman
When Bart Peabody came into the house he was chuckling to himself. -
"Now what?" Myliss asked. "You know that old boat I bought last year and fixed up to use for fish ing?
Mylies, who was washing the supper dishes, looked at him over her shoulder. "You sold it to Curt Jordan}"
Bart nodded, laughing aloud from sheer good feeling. "For thirty-two. dollars, cash,"
"Thirty-two dollars! Why, Bart, that's seven dollars more than you paid for it?”
"Sare it is" he grinned. "But caulked her last spring and slapped on a fresh coat of paint."
That Saturday Bart quit his job. When Monday, came he dressed up, which was unusual in itself, and re- ported to Bay Calvert, Ray was de lighted. A prospect from Philadelphia was due to arrive on the 10:30 train. The prospect was thinking of buying a small place in the country, raising a few hens and a garden and commuting.
“I'll turn him over to you, Bart.: Here's a list of small farms we have that might interest him."
Bart met the train, and introduced himself to the. prospect, whose name was Anthony. They drove out to the first of the farms and got out to look at it. Mr. Anthony didn't like it at all, and, for the life of him Bart couldn't "All of which must have cost you think of a thing to say that might three dollars. And you had a year's change his mind. They drove to an- use from the boat. Bart, don't you other farm, then another, Anthony feel that you took advantage of Curt?" liked neither of them. Bart began to “No,” said Bart sobering, "Curt feel desperate. He began to think wanted the boat. He couldn't caulk it that if he didn't sell. Anthony a place himself. He'll get his money's worth..he, Bart, wouldn't get paid.

When Bart came into the house that Saturday afternoon he was chuckling.
"Now what?" "Myliss asked..
"I got my job back at the machine shop," Bart told her. "And what do you think? - On my way home I met that Mr. Anthony from Philadelphia and sold him the old Bemis place at a "thousand dollars more than Calvert expected to get"
"Land sakes!" Myliss said, "what- ever did you want to get your job back at the machine shop for?" "

This was true. Bart had about him that inspired confidence. He liked to sell things. Up to now he'd never thought of his hobby as means of making a living.. It was fun and, according to Bart's code, (any- thing you did that was fun wasn't work, and you had to work to make money.
