'I can't live without Walter. Wish he'd hurry up and introduce himself!" BEHIND ON THE NEWS A salesman in Missouri was held up in a small town because heavy rains had caused a washout on the railroad., “This looks like the flood,” he observed to a waitress in the local hotel. “The what?” she asked. “The flood,” he repeated. “You know the flood when Noah saved the animals on the ark. You must have read about that.” The waitress assured him grave* ly, “Mister, on account of aU this rain, I ain't seen a paper-in four, days.” Cause to Be “You’re a pretty ’ sharp boy.

It drives him to the walL Same Difference “My son plays the piano like Paderewski.” “How can you say that?” “He uses both hands.” MISUNDERSTANDING / A little man was ushered into the witness-box. After the usual pre- lliminaries, the magistrate told him jto tell the court what happened. The man began in rambling nar rative and Anally ended up with: “And then my wife hit me on the head with an oak leaf.” “Well, that couldn’t have hurt you, surely,” said the magistrate. “Oh, couldn’t it?” replied the little man, with feeling. “It was the oak leaf from the center of the dining-room table.” Gay Blade An American was being urged to betake himself to Athens to see the old ruins. “Nope,” he decided definitely, “I’m going to Paris to see the young ruins!” ' High Opinion One night, when palywright W.

In an average year about 400 of the total production survive an 1,800-mile southward drift before disintegrating in the warm Gulf Stream. This year no icebergs were reported below the 46th parallel along the southern tip of Newfoundland. Moving south through Baffin Bay and Davis Strait to Lab rador, many of the crystal “cas tles” and plain “flattops” jam against the coast or are caught in the natural traps of islands and bays. A few swing into the Lab rador current and continue south ward. Some drift toward BeUe Isle Straight and some move around Newfoundland by way of Grand Banks to invade main traf fic arteries and threaten shipping. Major Arctic icebergs are pro duced by about 18 “name” gla ciers. The Humboldt, near Thule, north of Cape York, is one that supplies outsize models. Moun tains of ice a mile across and ris ing 200 feet above water have been reported, but the largest are puny compared to the 20-mile-long bergs sighted by Australian air reconnaissance in the Antarctic in 1948. * Telling ’Em Off An immigrant who had recently become a naturalized citizen was applauding a contingent of Loyalty Day paraders in New York City. A man standing in front of him turned and with a superior atti tude demanded to know why he was applauding. The Russian-born citizen re plied, “I am applauding good peo ple who are affirming their faith in democracy.” “And if you don’t like it,” he suggested, “why don’t you go back to^vhere I came from.” Apply Black Leaf 40 to roosts with handy Cap Brush.
