The pages of Frayn contained an instructive article, “Ohio’s State Fish Hatcheries. Helios, the “Rimfe of an Ancient Latin Book, was a clever parody on the “Ancient Mariner.” The jokes in Masten Park Chronicle are almost lost among the advertisements and seem to deserve a better place.

Central’s baseball team won their third victory of the season on the afternoon of May 6 at Reserve Field. Shaw High’s team, the conquered, never succeeded in getting the lead and the game was Central’s from the start. In only one inning, the fourth, did the opposing team get more than one run. At the beginning of the sixth inning, Orr replaced Johnson in the box and after that the Central team got only four scattered hits. Central’s line up had been shifted somewhat, Ford and Hirshfield exchanging places. Smith of Central pitched a very clever game. Score: CENTRAL HIGH. Players. AB .R. H. O. A.

The absent-minded man (picking up a hairbrush instead of a mirror)—“Heavens! I need a shave badly. There was an old doctor lived long ago, Who hired a fellow to shovel his snow; But instead of a shovel he gave him a hoe, For he was a ho-me-a-path, you know. —Exchange. Gus—I told your father that I just dote on you. Ruth—What did he say? Gus—That I had better find an antidote. —Ex. Instructor in Public Speaking—“What is the matter with you, Mr. Brown? Can’t you speak any louder ? Be more enthusiastic. Open your mouth and throw yourself into it!” —Ex. “O, goodness, I’ve got the cart before the horse! “Don't be so behind the times, my boy. Nowadays we say we’ve got the smell before the automobile. “Mother, mother, mother, turn the hose on me,” sang little Willie as his mamma was dressing him this morning. “What do you mean ? she asked. “You’ve put my stockings on wrong side out, he replied. We fear Willie will grow up to be a newspaper humorist.—Ex. Father—“You must have patience, my boy, patience! You can do anything if you’ll only wait. Son—“That's absurd, father—for one thing no amount of waiting will enable you to carry water in a sieve. Father—“And why not—if you only wait till it freezes? —Exchange. First Mother (reading a letter from son at college)—Joe’s letters always send me to the dictionary. Second Mother- That’s nothing. Bob’s letters always send me to the bank.—Ex. Tommy—Pop, a man’s wife is his better half, isn’t she? Pop—So we are told, my son. Tommy—Then if a man marries twice, there isn’t anything left of him, is there?—Ex. “Why don't you get up and give your seat to your father, Bobby? reprimanded the lady, “doesn’t it pain you to see him reaching for the strap? “Not in the car? chuckled Bobby, “but it does pain me to see him reaching for it at home. —Exchange. Wilfred was sitting upon his father’s knee, watching his mother arranging her hair. “Papa hasn’t any marcel waves like that, said the father, laughingly. Wilfred, looking up at his father’s bald pate, replied: “Nope! no waves; it’s all beach. —Ex. Reynolds—“Did you ever see hog’s skin boots? Pitts—“No; but I have seen alligator’s hide shoes; have seen the bark of a tree—seen it hollow and commence to leave, but the tree held on to its trunk which they were trying to seize for board. McGuire (to hospital attendant) — Phwat did ye say the docther’s name was? Attendant—Dr. Kilpatrick. McGuire—Thot settles it. No docther wid thot cognomen will git a chance to operate on me—not if I know it. Attendant—Why not ? McGuire—Well, ye see, my name is Patrick.—Ex. Pag Twenty-seven
