V. A. Poker
Tired of reading and the radio
the two patients in a veterans’ hos
pital called for a deck of playing
cards. The nurse didn’t have any.
“What’s in that little box?” asked
one impatient patient.
“Just filing cards,” she replied.
“Let’s have 52 of them,” said the
patient. "We’ll get by.”
Poker was played with fervor and
a pot got hot. Real money was piled
between the fistfuls of phony cards.
The showdown patient No. 1 spread
oi5t a full house—3 appendectomies
and 2 hernias—and reached for the
currency.
“Take your hand off the dough,"
said No. 2. “I’ve got 5 transfusions."
Just Hot Air
The disconsolate-looking farmer
stood on the steps of a midwest
town hall during the progress of a
political meeting.
"Do you know who is talking In
there now?” asked a stranger,
pausing for a moment, "or are you
just going in?”
"No sir. I’ve just come out,” the
farmer answered. "Congressman
Tallow is talking in there.”
“What about?”
"Well,” continued the country
man, passing a knotted hand across
his forehead, “he didn’t say!” *
MODERN CHILD
The chairman told about a little
girl who went to the church for the
first time. Afterward, the minister
asked her how she liked the service.
“Well,” she said, “I thought the
music was very nice, but your com
mercial was too long.”
Very Specialized
Father was in his sober, lecturing
mood.
“George,” he said, to his young
est, ‘This is the age of specialists.
I*hope-you will be an expert at
something, and know your specialty
better than anyone else in the
world. Is there anything, George,
that you can do better than anyone
else?”
"Yes father, there is,” replied the
quick-witted youngster. “I can read
my own handwriting.”
Wide Awake
Fu Lung, who had just opened a
laundry on one corner, gazed appre
ciatively at the signs on the busi
ness establishments on the other
three comers.
On the bakery was a sign, read
ing: "We never close.” Over the
garage, the sign read: “We stay
open all night”; and over the res
taurant: “We never sleep.”
The following morning over Fu
Lung's laundry appeared the neat
handprinted sign: “Me Wake Too.”
Give Them an Eyeful
"Does your wife go to church to
see what other women wear?”
asked snoopy Mr. Harris.
"Oh, no,” rejoined the newly rich
Mr. Updyke, “my wife has so much
money to spend on clothes now that
she goes to church to let the other
women see what she wears!”
Well Informed
In a Pacific landing during the
war, the colonel rushed up just as
the unloading net ripped and
dumped an avalanche of duffel bags
from the transport.
"Does the sergeant know about
this?” he demanded.
"He ought to, sir," a private re^
plied. "He’s under ’em.”
COOLING DRINK
Guest—I want something tall, cold
and lots of gin in it.
Host—Here’s my wife.
Just Like Men
First Fish (to second fish)—Let’s
duck. Here comes that bore who
is always bragging about the size
of the fisherman he got away from.
