THE SHIPBUILDER Charles Honkonen and Warren Ekstrom were talking the situation over when Charlie said, I took that pretty girl from the grille home last night, and stole a kiss. Warren, What did she say? Charlie, Will that be all?l' b Miss Maguire, Arnold, what's a canni- a ?77 Arnold J. I dontt know? Miss Maguire, 'tWell, if your father ate your mother, what would he be? Arnold, HA widower. Mrs. Brandt left her classroom for a few minutes and on her return, found the chil- dren doing everything they will do on such occasions. Wrathfully, she called them to order, then asked: How does it happen I never find you studying when I come back to the room? Bobby Hallaren answered in a piping voice: Please, Mrs. Brandt, it's because you wear rubber heelsf' 'tHow many kinds of wood are used in making a match? Two kinds. He would and she would. Miss Alden: George, what is the defin- ition of space? George: Just a minute I'vc got it right in my headf' Mrs. Lincoln had forbidden the eating of candy and the chewing of gum during schooltime. One day she became suspicious of a lump in Bobby Chase's cheek. Bobby, are you eating candy or are you chewing gum? she asked. No , replied Bobby, I'm just soaking a prune to eat at recess. Prescott Coulter purchased another car and was driving down the street about 60 miles an hour. A policeman yelled at him to stop, but instead of slowing up Pres- cott increased his speed. When the officer finally caught up with him, he roared: Why didnlt you stop? Didn't you hear me hollering? Seemingly unconccrned, Prescott re- plied: Oh' was that you that yelled? I thought it was somebody I run over. Point of View Mrs. Howes: Don't you want to be the kind of girl that people look up to? Shirley: No, I want to be the kind that people look around at. Not Fair John Marsh and Warren McNealy, sit- ting on a bridge, with their lines in the water, made a bet as to which would catch the first fish. John got a bite, and got so excited that he fell off the bridge. Oh, well, said Warren, lf you're go- ing to dive for them, the bct's off! That Meat Shortage Again This afternoon, said Mrs. Brandt to her zoology class, we shall take Mr. Frog apart. I have a frog in my pocket to be used as a specimenf' She reached into her pocket and drew out a paper bag which she emptied on the table. , . and out rolled a badly squashed sandwich. Mrs. Brandt mopped her brow. My goodness! she stammered, I distinctly remember eating my lun-ch. Moe Is No Moe i A whimsical bugler named Moe, Who thought it was funny to blow His horn at eleven Is now up in heaven, Which ain't where they told him to go. Like Father, Like Son Caroline: Say, Pop, did you go to Sun- day school when you were a little boy? Mr. Rogean: t'Yes,-regularly. Caroline: I'll bet it won't do me any good, either. Perish the Thought Liz. W.: I suppose you have been in the navy so long that you're accustomed to sea legs. Gus: Why, lady, I wasn't even look- ing. Object Miss Alden: Give me a sentence with an objectf, Bill J.: Teacher, you are very beauti- ful. Miss Alden: What is the object? Bill J.: A good mark. AREN'T YOU GLAD THAT YOU WERE BORN? When you wake up each morn Aren't you glad that you were born? Oh its a beautiful day! Who said that, anyway? As you slowly drag yourself out of bed, You remember that the cow has to be fed Breakfast is now over S0 hurry and feed Rover, You comb your hair with a lot of fuss. Hurry! hurry! here comes the bus. You spend the day in blood and sweat, And find that teachers are all wet. This should be censored. I do agree, But nothing else would fit, you see. Now you hurry right home With a little more knowledge in your dome, The rest of the day is spent doing chores Until your hands are covered with sores Then you lie in bed and mourn, WHY, OH WHY. WAS I EVER BORN? FRANK CASHMAN '49 twenty-two
