A sign on the wall of a famous
restaurant proclaims, “We make
every kind of sandwich in the
world. Just ask for it.”
One night a wise guy demanded
a whale sandwich. Temporarily
confused, the waiter said he’d
have to go speak to the boss about
the request. After a bit, the wait
er came back and rpported, “The
boss says he’ll be damned if he’ll
cut up a whale just for one sand
wich.”
TCH! TCH!

In further carrying out the rec-
omendations of the board, Ecusta
cancelled its regular movie for
this week Thursday and for next
week Thursday, December 26th.
If by January 2nd, conditions war
rant, the regular Thursday movies
will be resumed. Notices will be
posted announcing the date of the
next movie.
All arrangements had been com
pleted for one of the biggest Chil
dren’s Christmas Parties in the
history of Ecusta this year with a
special program of children’s
Christmas movies in the cafeteria
and with Santa Claus (himself)
here in person again with his many
helpers to give more than 2,000
special boxes of goodies to all the
kiddies.
An Englishman, a Welchman,
and a Scot were at the local pub.
There were three flies buzzing
around, and one happened to make
a landing in each drink. The Eng
lishman took a spoon and removed
the fly from his drink. The Welsh
man dipped his hand in his drink,
removed his fly and flipped it
across the room. The Scot careful
ly lifted his fly—and wrung it
out.
