,ZEIJB Svatsuma I OLD SHOES I-Iow much a man is like old shoes, For instance, both a soul can lose, Both have been tanned, both are made tight By cobblers, both get left and right. Both need a mate to be complete And both were made to go on feet. With shoes the last is first, with man The iirst shall be last: and when The shoes wear out, they're mended too. When men wear out, they're men dead, too. They both need healing, both re-sold, And both in time turn all to mould, The both are trod upon, and both VVith tread on others, nothing loath, Both have their ties, and both indine When polished, on the world to shine. They both peg out, so would you choose. To be a man or be his shoes. :ef if as Mother: What are you crying about, Bobby? Bobby: My kite won't Hy and I made it out of Hy-paper, too. wk wk :sf R. L.: Have you kept up with your studies? M. I.: Oh yes, but haven't passed them. ak :uf vs Miss Stuart in Home Economics Class: Loretta, I thought I told you not to forget the lard. Loretta: I didn't intend to, Miss Stuart, but it was so greasy it must have slipped my mind. :sf :uf :sf Karl Stocke: What did you mean by calling your mother last night when I kissed you? Gladys Johnsen: I didn't know she was home. :sf :lf Pk Luther Burbank is trying to invent a seedless watermelon.
