Ole, Sven and Lars had been going to the Sons of Norway hall meeting as long as there had been a hall. Every month they had an attendance drawing. And every month, wouldn't ya know it, they didn't win a prize in the prize drawing, that is until a meeting when all three won in the same night. Sven was the first to get his name drawn. He won two pounds of spaghetti sauce, 4 boxes of noodles and three pounds of Swedis meatballs. Ole had his name drawn next. He got himself round-trip tickets to Duluth, a night's stay in the Dew Drop Inn and a pair of tickets to see the Inger Triplets Polka Ensemble. Ole thought he had died and gone to heaven. Lars was the last to be drawn and he won a toilet brush. At the next monthly meeting they sat down together to check out how they had fared for the past month. Sven said "Uff-da I had dat pasghetti for tree days. It was so good. Helga didn't have to buy any food for dem deare tree days." Ole said "Lena was so happy vhen I brought home dem tickets. The trip up to Duluth vas nice, ve got to ride da Greyhound and ya know, dey got a built-in outhouse on dat dere bus. And dose Inger Triplets - if I didn't know better, I would swear day were sisters." Then Ole turned to Lars and asked him how his prize worked out. Lars looked at them both and said "Dat dere toilet brush is nice, but I tink I'll go back to using paper."
