Page 6 THE MIDGET May, 1922 i: .%a#d 9& “Might as well hitch my wagon to a star,” said the drunken teamster, as he passed his rope around the lamp post. PRIME NECESSITY. Teacher—“If George Washington came back to life, what do you sup pose he would do first?” Pupil—“Get a pair of long pants.” Latin. Miss Stephenson—“Please trans late: ‘Caesar sic dicat on de curan equisse lictum’.” Herbert Justus—“Caesar sicked the cat on the cur and I guess he licked him.” Who wrote the most, Dickens, War ren or Bulwer? Warren wrote “Now and Then,” Bulwer wrote “Night and Morning,” Dickens wrote “All the Year ’Round.” Sure ’Nough. Boy—“Do you think they could build a pontoon briuge across the ocean?” Girl—“No, but they might build a floating one.” AN “IF” FOR BOYS. If you can love a giiil and never show it, Nor let her see shc*3 got you on the run; If you can act the fool and she not know it— You’ve got the jump on most of us, my son. If you have loved, and never have been jealous. Not even melancholy—but just bright and gay; If you can just be mild, and not too zealous; And keep 'her guessing, steady, day by day. If you can keep your mind upon your business. And turn off work just like an oiled machine; If you can be indifferent to the diz ziness. And have your heart take orders from your bean; If you can play the game in all its phi'ses. And get the good results that you had planned; If “she” has never lost you in the mazes. Nor made you feel like Fido with g can— If you do this, fellow, you’re a wonder; You’re just the sort of chap we sel dom see; I hope that I’ll soon meet you, and by thunder, I must admit you’ve got the jump on me. —iCoIyx, 1920. “A wise old owl Lived in an oak; The more he saw The less he spoTce; The more he spoke The less he heard— Why can’t we be More like that bird?” Ex. He—“I met a girl last night with the most affectionate pair of eyes.” She—“What do you mean by af- "ectionate eyes?” He—“Yes, they were always look ing at one another.” —High Life.
