PUCK---SEES ALI.---KNOWS ALL Dream Street, Invisible Empire Joke Editor: Orospolitan, Bloundsville, W. Van- Knowing- you have ransaeked your brains, spent many sleepless nights, and spent many hours in quest of jokes, I l1ave decided to end your sufferings by sending you several I have picked up in my never-ending' travels. I hopped on a train to your eity. We went by a miserable burg, Cameron. A mortal was very angry, demanding' the eo-nduetor to stop the train. VVe donlt stop here any more, said the conductor, Hthe engineer and fi'ameron's station master are sore at eaeh other. The man wilted and slumped down in his seat. I dropped off at Moundsville. I tlew up the street and entered Gandee's restaurant, I noticed they had got a new waiter sinee I had been there. The linger prints on the plate were differ- elit. I am 11ow going to give you a list of jokes I have picked up, together with my deputies in your town and school. NICKNAMES At MIDNIGHT I rode into town. It was IIIIJLY. In the street a kid was yelling for a LOIILYPOP. We went into a store where a- -IEW, who was very SKINNY, was throwing the l3IIIlI.i. A TVVO-GUN man entered, upsetting a STVBII' JI'BII'ER. The STVBII' -IVMPER picked up a HAM and thred it at him. He DUCK-ed, but too late, and the blood began to FLO. MER. Just then a KAT ran in, fol- lowed by a DOGGY, who chewed up the -IEW'S CAP. Then I was i11 DUTCH. The DOGGY was very FLEET. He I3I.'CK-ed me into a ISOIISHEVIK, who stole my tie. Some- one yelled Ycu better get a TILOCKH With all SPEED I ran to the DOCNS, forgetting to pay my BILL.
