86 Isaac Newton High School H U M O R The question of graduation came be¬ fore the school council. Allan D.:—“I am in favour of a safe and sound thirteenth of June.” Mr. Floyd:—“So am I. We ought to have that kind of day at least once a year.” Marg. F.: “Did you get much out of Economics when you were at Newton?” Grad: “Three frat pins and a hus¬ band.” “John,” asked Mr. Pearce, “did you steal the examination papers?” “No, Sir, Mr. Pearce, not me. I only took it for a joke.” How far did you carry it?” “Only from the school to my house— ’bout four blocks.” “Two hours’ detention,” Mr. Pearce sighed, “That was carrying a joke too far.” Donna B.: “Men are all alike.” Marg. P.: “Yeah, men are all I like, too!” Mother: “What did you do with your allowance?” Gogol: “Well, I spent a dollar shoot¬ ing pool, a dollar on poker, a dollar on taxi fare, a dollar on a girl.” Mother: “But that’s only four dol¬ lars. What happened to the other dol¬ lar?” Gogol: “I must have spent that fool¬ ishly.” Judge: “I’ll let you off with a fine today but the next time I’ll send you to jail.” Buggy: (driver of the I.O.F. Heap): “Sort of a weather forecaster aren’t you?” Judge: “What do you mean?” Buggy: “Why, fine today — cooler tomorrow.” Mr. Armstrong: “Here it is Monday and tomorrow will be Tuesday and the next day Wednesday—the whole week half gone and nothing done yet.” Dentist: “Before beginning my work I must have my drill.” Ray Ch.: “Good heavens, man! Can’t you pull a tooth without a rehearsal?” Ireland is the richest country in the world. It’s Capital is always Dublin. “Sit down!” said Mr. Robson. “I won’t, so there!” uttered an impu¬ dent tone. “Stand up then — I will be obeyed!” Teacher: “Why didn’t you deliver that message as instructed?” Mike S.: “I did the best I could.” Teacher: “The best you could! Why, if I had known I was going to send a donkey I would have gone myself.” Mr. Babb: “Why have you got elec¬ tricity in your hair?” Bazil F.: “Because it grows from a dry cell. ” Nestor B.: “Is my face dirty or is it my imagination?” Roy N.: “Well, your face is clean, but I don’t know about your imagination.” The Physician advised his patient to eat a hearty dinner at night without any worry over the ability to digest it. The patient, however, protested: “But the other time when I came to see you, you insisted I must eat only a very light supper in the evening.” The Physician nodded. “Yes, of course —that shows what great progress the science of medicine is making.”

88 Isaac Newton High School A. E. FLOYD, B.A., B. Paed T HIS year we bid farewell to our Principal. It is rather fitting that the departure of the man who has done so much for the school and the community should coincide with the twenty-fifth anniversary of Isaac Newton High. Arthur Edgar Floyd, native of King’s County, New Brunswick, began his education in a one-roomed rural school. Later he was sent to Boston, Mass., where he attended graded public schools. At the age of seventeen he took Normal training at Frederickton, N.B., and taught for six years. He then entered the University of New Brunswick in the Arts course, and graduated in 1912, winner of the Asa Dow Scholarship. After gradua-
