I got three pencil boxes in school and you've seen MY report card!" By 'Paramount could make a movie of my life—except the ending would be too tragic" FORESIGHT One summer morning, while on vacation, Norwegian dramatist Henrik Ibsen called at the home of a fellow artist and asked to see the latter’s wife. “A button has come off my coat,” Ibsen explained to her, “and I must sew it on again. Would you please thread this needle for me? My eyes are not strong.” He handed her a needle and a spool of thread. She completed the task in a moment, and Ibsen thanked her and departed. Several weeks later, the two met again. “How is your sewing coming along?” she asked. . “Have you been threading the needle yourself since I last saw you?” “Oh no,” replied Ibsen. “I made sure then that the thread would be long enough to last me all sum mer.” Bottoms Up! A flashy character barged into a Detroit saloon, demanded a double jigger of scotch, downed it in one gulp, plunked a $5 bill on the coun ter, and walked out without another word. The bartender folded the fiver carefully, pocketed it, agd re marked to the bar-flies. “Can you beat a phony like that? Laps up a double scotch, leaves a five dollar tip, and beats it without paying!” Right Crowd “Hrothers,” said the colored preacher, “The subject of mah ser mon today is liars. How many in dis congregation have read the 69th chapter of Matthew?” Nearly every hand went up. “You is de people ah wants to preach to,” the reverend said, “Dere is no such chapter.” First of All Romeo was the first quizmaster. Remember his declaration that he had a lady in the balcony? THANKS, TEACHER Sir Oswald Mosley, leader of the British Union of Fascists, had marched at the head of a great procession to Albert Hall in Lon don, where a large crowd awaited him. With dramatic effect he mount ed the rostrum under the glare of spotlights and raised his arm in the Fascist salute. The effect was ruined by a voice from the gallery calling, “Yes, Oswald, you may leave the rooml” And With Glasses The girl who is a vision in the moonlight may be a sight in the sunlight. Unflattering Portrait At the height of his trust bust ing campaign, Theorore Roosevelt had his portrait painted by an art ist friend. When he saw the fin ished work, he shuddered. All his un flattering features had been exag gerated. “Do I really look like that to you?” he said. The artist nodded. “Hmmm,” muttered T. R. “Now I know why I have so many ene mies.' REMEMBERS WHEN During the quail season Bruce Cooper met an old farmer hunting with an ancient pointer. Twice the dog pointed. Twice his master kick ed at the matted growth, wheeled sharply and fired into the empty air. When Cooper saw no birds rise, he asked the farmer for an explanation. “Shucks,” grinned the old man, “I knew there wam’t no birds in that grass. Spot’s nose ain’t what it used to be. But him and me have seen some wonderful days together. He’s still doing his best—and it’d be mighty little of me to call him a liar.” A NEW DEAL The landlady brought in a plateful of extremely thin slices of bread and butter, which rather dismayed her hungry men board ers. “Did you cut these, Mrs. Brown?” asked one. “Yes—I cut them,” came the stern reply. “Oh,” went on the boarder. “All right—I’ll shuffle and deal!” Simple Skirt, Blouse Ideal for School Days Simple Shirt S URE to find a warm welcome in every school-day wardrobe is this pretty set for young girls.
