ha Q1 i ' ' 1 DR. GRAB AND FRIEND IN LAST PEW Dr. Grab ellHere comes the collection plate-a chance to do good. Friend e'll hadn't thought of that. On a whisperl I gyped a half- dollar, how much did you Grab? Nurse Iclever and accommodatingleIiI'm the night-nurse; my name is Miss Hendricks; now for another glass of water and you're all set for the night. Patiente- Why not'roll in a barrel and attach a hose? iTwould save your Icarpet-beatersf ' M iss H . icheerfullyl-HNO trouble at all; you drank only I 7 l eighteen glasses last night. ISince I buy my own I do not drink as heavily as I used toJ It's a rare family tree, that hasn't a few monkeys in its branches! A LITTLE BIT OF HEAVEN I'm just a tiny little mite, They balance me at five pounds live. My mother worries night by night Just wondering if I 'll thrive. The doctor nods his head And tells her not to pout, The best of food I must be fed To make me grow, no doubt. Another comes to look at me- A big black satchel in his hand. He pokes his fingers at my chest, And peeks beneath my belly-band. There's nothing wrong with this big boy, He shouts into my ear, Don't handle him quite like a toy, And he will walk within a year. So they j ust fed me day and night, To make me grow just swell; Now Dad thinks therels no heaven left, But just a bit ofEnot so well! !

DeMasterhSleep! Sleep! Clark GirISeArt galleries. Gernand-My height. The Whole Gang-Eats from home. J. jeThe Boy Friend, a man worthy of Merit. Mrs. WestphaleThe radio. THE GREAT THREE The optimist makes a light, and a pessimist blows it out. An optimist says it can be done. A pessimist says it can't be done. A peptomist comes along and does it! Studentf:Why' is Dr. Raethke disgusted with you, Honey ? Bennett- Oh, Just because I dropped my vanity-case in class and woke them up. THE BUG-HOUSE FABLE Once upon a time not so very long ago a nurse worked over time and was given an extra hour-and didn't take it! Sleep! SAFETY PINS Why the popularity? Why the sudden cheer? Is it for their confidence which makes the pins so clear? The large, the medium, the small. They are used by people short and tall. Used on garments old and new. Used on uniforms so blue. Safety pins-a lengthy line-so often fall from a hip sublime ; for, doctors want them, nurses too-that's why we're sure to carry a few. So-here's to the safety pins, long may they strivewto ease someones conscience or some health to revive! 75
