Let’s hope that the future teachers in our class never get pupils like these! A little girl whose fondness for movies and the personalities featured in them far surpassed her liking for school and textbooks, was selected by the teacher to answer the question: What is a comet?” Perturbed, the child hesitated. What is a star with a tail?” persisted the instructor. Why, Mickey Mouse!” exclaimed the pupil, brightening. Albert, aged eight, was assigned by his teacher to write a piece about his origin. He questioned his mother: Mom, where did Grandma come from?” The stork brought Grandma, Albert.” Well, where did you come from?” The stork brought me, too.” And me?” The stork brought you, too, Albert.” Resignedly the young modern began: There have been no natural births in our family for three generations.” Charles Kettering, inventor and engineer, is also quite a philosopher. Why,” a friend once inquired, do you talk so much about the future?” Because it’s of deepest interest to me,” Kettering replied. I’m going to spend the rest of my life there.” Page Twenty-six

 HERE’S HOPINT’—Stanton Mr. Barton on a recent journey fell into conversation with a nice old lady who shared his seat. Among the many things they discussed was the likelihood of another depression. I do hope there won’t be another,” the old lady remarked. The last one was terrible, and it came at such a bad time—when so many people were out of work.” A young couple went to the movies, but the theater was crowded and they had to settle for two single seats, far apart. The young lady, dissatisfied with the arrangement, thought the man next to her might be willing to change seats with her escort. Pardon me, but are you alone?” she whispered to him. There was no answer, so she tried again, and still a third time, without getting an answer. After the next try, he turned toward her slightly, keeping his eyes on the screen. For gosh sakes, cut it out!” he whispered savagely. My whole family’s here!” FOR THOSE HEADED FOR MATRIMONY Newlywed husband: Do you mean to say there’s only one course for dinner tonight? Just cheese?” Newlywed wife: Yes, dear. You see, when the chops caught fire and fell into the dessert, I had to use the soup to put out the fire.” Guy E.Longeway GILPIN, HUNT CO.
