Thursday, November 4, 1937 ' f j BAOM THIS AND THAT It's one of those days when we can think of absolutely nothing to begin this column with. We don't even feel like complaining about anything. All we want to do is just sit here and stare blankly out the window. John says the cogs in our head need oiling—so they can grind out an idea. We had an idea once, but nothing came of it. And having an idea/ even a small one, is something very unusual for the Brownings. However, don't you worry, be cause we're not going to have an idea today. Nor tomorrow. Nor next week or next year. Every now and then various people make the remark that they would like to write this column just one time. It would make us powerful happy if one of them was to show up now.

C, * turn the whole business over to them. It must be that we take after our Uncle Culpepper when we get to feeling like this, uncle Cul pepper was sitting on a stump out in the back yard one time just gazing off into the distance. When he finally came to himself he had been erected as a statue in the public square by mistake. It may be that we are working too hard and need a change. THE ELKIN TRIBUNE, ELKIN, NORTH CAROLINA Maybe we'll feel better If we cross our other leg. Some Bign of movement on our part will make the boss feel better. We heard him asking one of the oth er boys Just a moment ago If he was sure we were still living. However, we've got our system with the boss when we feel one of these blank, staring spells coming on. We tell him we are doing mental work. Think ing. One is supposed to think a little on a Job like this. And that's what we do —think a little. A mighty little. ——* | fetill, he liked to have caught up with us one day last week. That is, I believe he was a mite suspicious when he asked us if it helped our thinking process to snore? r ■ 1 Can we help it if we think so hard we. become mentally ex hausted and drop off into a doze as our tired, overworked brain gives completely out? Of course not! We have had two suggestions for this column during the past week. One concerned the lunch room at the schoolhouse, the other was concerned with a clean-up campaign and a protest by a lady who said her neighbors littered up her yard with garbage. We're going to get more infor mation concerning the lunches served at the school because they've really got something there and we don't want to go off half-cocked, as is our usual way of doing things. As for the other idea, we don't feel much like messing around with any garbage at the present time. * ♦ • JOKES—THEY MAKE FINE FILLERS It is reported that when a WPA 'chief foreman sent word to the big boss that he needed dbme more shovels for his faithful toilers on the WPA roll, word hurried back from the boss: "Tell the men to lean on each other. We are out of shovels." ' I Mother —You were a good girl I not to throw your banana skins down in the train. Did you put I them in your bag? Jean —No, I put them in the pocket of the gentleman who was sitting next to me. i The head of the house was i reading a newspaper article very carefully. Presently he remarked to his wife: "Do you know, dear, I think there is something in what this article says—that the cleverness of the father often proves a stumbling block to the son." His wife heaved a sigh of re lief: "Well, thank goodness," she said, "our Bobby won't have any thing to fall over." "With a single stroke of the brush;" said the teacher, taking the class around the Corcoran Gallery in Washington, "Sir Joshua Reynolds, the famous painter, could change a smiling face to a frowning one." "So can my mother," said a small- boy. We only hope the editor of "Scat," appearing in the Farm ville (Va.) Herald, won't feel too badly because we lifted these jokes. The fellow who is careless about money matters usually has more cares than money.
