Teacher—Now, Tommie, make a sentence using the following words: Defeat, deduct, defense and deceit. Tommie (after short trance)—De feat of deduct went over defense before deceit. Hot Dogs? “On and on through the polar blizzards we pushed,” reminisced the ex-sourdough, “and it looked like we were going to make it to the Pole, when all of a sudden our dogs give out.” . “Don’t give us that stuff,” chal lenged the listener, “the Eskimo dog is ope of the ruggedest animals in creation. They’re practically tireless.” “Oh, I didn’t mean it that way,” explained the old sourdough, “I was speaking in the culinary sense.” Yes, Where? Walking through a churchyard when he was a small lad, Charles Lamb amused himself by reading the, inscriptions on the tombstones. His eyes grew large with surprise and wonderment as he noted the glowing paeans of praise which were offered to the departed ones. At length young Lamb paused in the midst of his wandering and, turning to his older sister, Mary, who accompanied him, plaintively inquired, “Mary, where are all the naughty people buried?” Hard to Conceal Joseph H. Choate, lawyer and statesman, and S. Weir Mitchell, celebrated American physician, were both guests at a banquet. The two eminent men were in high spirits and poked good natured fun at each other. “I’ve always envied the medical profession,” kidded Choate. “At least you can bury your mistakes.” ‘Yours, I understand,” retorted Mitchell playfully, “swing in pub lic.” Inconsistent Producer Samuel Goldwyn has complete confidence in his abilities. Not so long ago while thumbing through a magazine, he came across an article signed by himself. “Darn that man who wrote this,” complained Goldwyn. “He hasn’t the faintest notion of whst my lit erary style is like. He ought to take a look at the article my previous writer did for me.” GOT THE POINT McNutt—I met that impossible Bill Swiggle today. His wife—Yes, and I suppose you argued with him until you were black in the face. McNutt—No, just around one eye. Variety Wanted Jack—There's a man who’s re puted to have a good head on his shoulders. Mac—Yeah, and a different one every night! Closing Words “Do you really always have the last word in argument with your wife?” “Sure. I always say ‘yes, dar ling!’ ” Not Appropriate “What did you take at college?” “I took a course in husbandry.’* “Then why in thunder did they give you a bachelor’s degree?" Plenty of Room A driver on a Chattanooga-Knox- ville bus told incoming passengers: “All right, folks, fill up the back. Act like you’re at church.” What a Man! Madge—What do you think of a man who is constantly deceiving his wife? Jack—He’s a marvel. SEWING CIRCLE PATTERNS WuJe Ptay jbreS* for ZJot (^■ap-Sieeuetl trlit/ci tsl rocb Tot’s Play Dress.
