For the ladies,' Edith Watson reg- isters the greatest altitude, being 5 feet, o inches, while Rose Meister looks up to the rest of the 'fladiesf' as she is just 4 feet, IO inches. The average height of the 'Ifair sex is 5 feet, 4 I-2 inches. The heavyweight of the Hbunchl' is Fat Michels, who shoves the indi- cator up to 197. Again joe Saribin gets the consolation prize, as he just registers 100 pounds less than Fat Among the interesting sex the heavi- est, according to carefully gathered sta- tistics, is Biddy Thompson, as she weighs several more pounds than her nearest competitor, who carries 135 pounds about with her.

The supervisor wrote 63. He asked for another number. 76 was given. He wrote 67. Wheii a third number was asked, a child who apparently had paid no attention called out, Theventy-theven.
