Mr. Benson
The house is all right, but the life is pretty doggone dull.
Hiram
Just what I told your son, Harry. The conveniences are all right, but you’re just as much out of place as a pump handle on an ice house.
Mr. Benson
I suppose it is the only life for those that is brought up that way.
Hiram
Sure, but it’s just as hard for a farmer to get used to city ways as it is for a fish to get used to living on land.
Enter Mrs. Benson.
