Page 8 THE LEXHIPEP Friday, March 24, 1950 / A SAPP’S FIBBLES By A SAPP Most girls are wonderful to behold—some to be held. Love is like a fried egg. Looks pretty at first but the moment you take a stab at it, it becomes a big mess. ' I call my girl Baseball because she won’t play without a diamond. He’s not cheap, just has low pockets and short arms. ! All a sweater does for her is make her itch. I only go out with good girls. I can’t afford the other kind. They study hard in college nowadays. Sometimes it’s so quiet in the men’s dormitories you can hear a pin up. I went downtown to see the model home, but my wife caught me. Song; “I’m Glad I Made You Cry—Now Your Face Looks Cleaner.’’ My mind is always wandering, but don’t worry—it ain’t big enough to get too far away. A girl nowadays has more on her going to a shower than she has on going to the theatre. “We’ll have to rehearse that,” said the undertaker as the coffin fell out of the car. First Dog: Do you have a family tree? Second Dog: No, we’re not particular, A bartender is a sort of fortune teller—he brings you into contact with the spirit world.

Johnny Morgan: Come away from that mirror. It looks like couples get married nowadays before they know each other, and get divorced as soon as they do. She reminds me of coffee—strong and stimulating and weak in the bean. Too much sugar in my coffee used to keep me awake all night, now I’m up all night looking for sugar. I wasn’t feeling well, so my doctor said, “Avoid all forms of excitement. Don’t even look at ’em on the street.” Overheard: A conversation of an eighth grader with his father—“You can see she’s against me—she has me even dumber than I was last month and you know that’s impossible!” Big Shots are only shots who keep on shooting. Pa (sternly): “Come here, sir! Your mother and I agreed that you deserve a good whipping.” Small Boy (bitterly): “Oh, yes, that’s about the only thing on which you and mamma ever do agree.” Most women w'ould be more spic if they had less span. An egotist is a guy who is always me-deep in conversation. WILSON’S GROCERY Winston Road Phone 2402 DELIVERY SERVICE FRED THOMPSON, Inc.
