Realizing that the time had come for him to stop working so hard, an old blacksmith chose a strong young man to become his apprentice.
The young man was full of questions and the old blacksmith was ill-tempered and exacting.
"Don't ask me a lot of questions," grumbled the old man. "Just do whatever I tell you to do!"
One day the old blacksmith took an iron out of the forge and laid it on the anvil.
"Get the hammer over there," he snapped at the apprentice. "When I nod my head, hit it as hard as you can."
The town is now looking for a new blacksmith.

The village blacksmith finally found an apprentice willing to work hard at low pay for long hours. The blacksmith immediately began his instructions to the lad, "When I take the shoe out of the fire, I'll lay it on the anvil; and when I nod my head, you hit it with this hammer." The apprentice did just as he told. Now he's the village blacksmith.
