32 AURORA BOREALIS WE WONDER? 1. Why some people eat so fast and others so slow. 2. Why Margaret Tanton thinks she’s the whole ocean be¬ cause she has a wave in her hair. 3. Why there is such a family resemblance between cer¬ tain boys and girls who are not relatives. 4. Why some people must learn to play the Banjo. 5. Why some boys are tall and slim and others short and stout. 6. Why some people are always late for breakfast. If they don’t hear the riser, why not? 7. If “red” is warning or aggressive colouring. 8. Why teachers are on duty, and what would happen if they weren’t. 9. If every minute is worth a cent why so many Scotch people waste so many minutes. 10. How a boy’s straight pompadour changes overnight in¬ to a marcel. 11. Why brain waves can’t be made permanent. Visitor: Can you tell me if Florence Lampley is up in her room? Charlie Knowles: Sorry, there’s nobody home on the top floor. Visitor: Oh, excuse me. I’ll ask someone else. +■—----- H ■ ALWAYS ASK FOR TURNERS I Gas Service I I Bread, Cakes j A boon to every mem- I ber of the family.
