Such college humor magazines as the Dartmouth Jack-0-Lantern, the Har vard Lampoon, the Dodo, the Cornell Widow, and the Lehigh Bachelor, among others, have been lying around the office for some time. The best to be found therein is printed below with the hope that it will remind some of their alma maters, and make others forget the obstacle course, etcetera, for a few moments at least. From the Dartmouth Jack-O-Lan- tern comes the one about the drunk I who wandered into a restaurant on the east side of New York City . . . one of those greasy joints where the seeds on the rolls have legs. He staggered over to a corner table and fell into a chair. A lame waiter limped leisurely over. “Gimme a bowl’ve shoup, hey.” The waiter limped away. The drunk stared after him with heavy lidded eyes and then yelled, “For chrish’ shakesh, if you gotta go down shtairsh for it, the hell with it.” * ^ % Patient, recovering from operation: “Why are all the blinds drawn, doc tor?” Doctor: “Well, there’s a fire across the street, and I didn’t want you to wake up and think the operation was a failure.” —Exchange H< :[c * Another from the Jack-O-Lantern: The wife was always antagonized by her husband going out at night. His departing words, which especially an gered her, were always, “Good night, mother of three.” But one night, she could stand it no longer, and when he put his hat on, started out the door, and called cheer ily, “Good night, mother of three,” she answered, quite as cheerfully, “Good night, father of one.” Now he stays home. * * * “Lady, you’ll have to pay half-fare for that boy.” “But conductor, he’s only four years old.” “Well he looks like a six-year old.” “Sir, I have been married only four years.” “Lady, I’m not asking for a confes sion. I’m asking for a half-fare.” —J ack-O-Lantern * * =it Old but good is this one from Tar an’ Feathers, former humor publication here at Carolina. He: Why wait till we get home to tell me whether you’ll marry me or not? See LAUGHS, page 6 UNIVERSITY CLEANERS i4cross from Post Office We do only quality work—our prices are reasonable.
