JUST WANTED TO KNOW One night at a theatre a man who brd dined rather too well stood up in his seat in the middle of the play and cried: “Is there a doctor in the house?” The actors faltered slightly, but the play went bravely on. A moment later, the same man, still standing, repeated his ques tion. At this second call another man rose and said "Yes, I’m a doc tor,” whereupon the other nearly finished off the performance by asking in a tone of great good na ture:— “How do you like the show. Doc?” Action, Please Annoyed with the progress of a certain scene, Movie Director Greg ory Ratoff jumped out of his Seat and threw his hat violently to the ground. “Get me some ballet dancers!” he roared. “Ballet dancers?” repeated the bewildered script girl. "The script doesn’t call for any ballet dancers.” “I know,” thundered the angry Ratoff, “but I’m going to have someone on his toes around here!” POOR THING Bill: “Why so melancholy, old man?” John: “My girl gave me my ring back last night.” Bill: “Well, buck up, there are others.” John: “Yes, of course, but somehow I can't help feeling sorry for the poor girl.” That Did It A rookie was hdme on ftrlough. “What did you have to eat?” in quired his mother. "Oh a little bit of everything,” he replied vaguely. “What do you mean by every thing?” asked mother. “Oh well, soup for instance,” he answered. Proof Enough “It appears to me that this man is abnormally lazy,” said the officer. “ What is your opinion, sergeant-major ? " “ Well, I shouldn’t like to do* him an injustice, sir,” was the repljt, “ but if it required any voluntary work on his part to digest his food he would die from lack of nourish ment.” -JIouAe d^ach interest 'IJoung ie J^ewtna Stub What Kept Him? The business man signed a new fire-insurance policy and that night his factory was burned to the ground. The company suspected fraud, but had no proof. The only thing the manager could do was to send the policy-holder the following note: — “Sir,—You took out an insurance policy at 10 a. m. and your fire did not break out until 7 p. m. Will you kindly explain the delay?” COULDN’T WAIT Patient: “Since we’ve known each other so long, doctor. Pm not going to insult you by paying my bill, but I’ll leave ’you a hand some legacy in my will.” Doctor: “That's very nice of you. Pm sure. By the way, just let me have that prescription again.

Make Handy Bench From Single Board IN COLONIAL days folks made A pieces of furniture as the need arose. If they wanted a bench to seat two, three, four or more per sons, they made it to the size needed. The bench illustrated above is a replica of those com monly used in Colonial times. The entire bench, legs, top and cleats can be cut from one ten foot board. This size bench is ideally suited for use alongside a fire place. It can also be used as a coffee table or as an odd piece to hold a small radio, lamp, plants, etc. By adding a third or even a fourth leg, the bench can be made to any length desired. A complete dining room set can be made by building two of these benches and a Sawbuck table from Pattern No. 17. The full size pattern for making these benches is easy to use. It is merely traced on the wood. User then saws and assem bles the bench exactly as step-bv-step directions indicate. No special tools or skill are required. The pattern tells ex actly what materials to use. All materials are now available at every lumber yard. Paint or stain it to match interior furnish ings.
