Stanley Slugocki, The Honourable Member from Scratch, is the one who takes us all on a trip (to the land of nuisance and he knows too much about transportation. Incidently he is the one that reveals all that is not heard nor seen of his fellow-members. If the Speaker “sits on him” often enough, he is likely to become a good Democra¬ tic citizen. —STANLEY SLUGOCKI COLLOQUIUM CASABLANCAE (continued from page 48) fuisse et placuit omnes opes colligari ad hostes oppugnandos et mari et terra et aero. Roosevelt et Churchill et legati sui consilia sua confecerunt et nunc ad pstrias rediderunt ut haec consilia per- sequerentur. Uterque in senatu suo orationem habuit.

Quote another.” Student: “Go ye and do likewise.” • • • “I ought to know, didn’t I go to college, stupid?” “Yes, and came home that way, too.” • Don’t let the price of butter upset you, says an exchange. It can be made from grass. All you need is a cow and a churn. • • • The young recruit, a university gradu¬ ate, was appearing before the army examination board. The first “intel¬ ligence” question was: “What is an adjutant?” Came the reply: “An adjutant is a large bird of uncouth appearance. It has an almost bald head, a tremendous capacity for eating and acts as a public scavenger. It can swallow a cat with ease.” The examining officer almost fainted.
