Dated October 9th/ 1930. Scraps of j k /'l- w WHO KNOWS? An inspector was examining a class of hoys in science, and receiving few answers to his questions. He asked one in a rather facetious’ manner, which drew an aside from a boy in the hack row: “Silly ass!” The inspector, seeing the boy’s lips move, called to him encouragingly. ‘‘Speak up, my boy, you may be right.” Authorities “Are you going to wear longer street gowns?” “Why should I,” asked Miss Cayenne. “Because the fashion authorities call for them,” “But we no longer heed authorities, and a fashion authority hasn’t even power to stop you and give you a ticket.” ' Not So Easy Car, Salesman (to lady buying a ear and asking for driving lessons)— Haven’t you ever driven a car? The Lady—Only from the back seat. Salesman—Lady, you are going to have to unlearn a lot of things you know before you can learn to drive a car. fOUND HIMSELF “How did you find yourself after the little party last night?” • “Why—er—I believe it was a cop who told me where I was.” Service Charge* A erreat invention makes a hit. Tn admiration we are lost. Yet when they come to market it, We stand and shudder at the cost. To Dumb to Live “John,” said Mrs. Dumbbell, looking up from the paper,,“it, speaks here of a hair shirt?” “Well, what about it?” nc asked wearily. “Why,” she replied, “I never knew they had shirts for hair.” Tha Ftmahmg Touche* The-Sculptor—I’ve caught an excel lent likeness, Mrs. “Newgilt, and I’m almost through with your bust. I’m Jurt touching up the hair. Mrs. Newgilt—Just .doing my hair? That’s fine. Be sure to give me a nice permanent wave. Safe Gue«* “What did that lady want?” asked the head of the d«DArUttenUwho hod observed the clerk made no agle. “I think,” said the clerk, “she wants a husband'who makes enough so she can buy instead of just looking.” Cave!and Gallantry He—In no case would I ever lift my hand against a woman. She—You’re wise, old son. She’d probably construe it as a proposal and sue you for preach of promise. Confidence of a Vamp The Smitten Swain—Love me and the world is mine! The Baby Vamp—Fine! Love me and I’ll get it away from you. A Mere Shell Fat Man (weighing himself)— What’s that? Only HO pounds! Kid (standing near)—Mister, you must be hollow. THE VANITY CASE “Has she n vanity case?” “Yes; the werst case of vanity I ever knew.” Life’s Oddities I’ve seen a lot of goofy things, Hut still the bike race fakes the pot. The bozos ride and ride and ride And stay right in the same old spot. One-Car Garage Big Enough Jo—Now tlun you ln\e two ea’.t?. I suppose you’ll need :i fwo-<*pr garage? Bo—No, my wife’ll us«* il nig'o* my sen’ll use il (laytimes.
