16 THE CRIMSON AND GRAY Teacher — Where do pearls come from? Little Boy— Oysters. Teacher — And where do diamonds come from? Little Girl— From fish. Soph — What are you thinking about? Fresh — Thanks for the compliment. Bridget, weeping — Someone told my Pat that he could get his pants pressed by al- lowing a steam roller to run over them. Well, what of it? Pat forgot to take the pants off. Well, Tommy, how would you like your hair cut? Like father ' s, with a hole in the middle. If William Orzeck went out riding in his Ford, ran out of gas, and was forced to push the machine back to town, could you say that the Ford was moving by Will power? Edwards — Had your iron for today? Ryan — No, but I ' m chewing my nails. Blanchard — Has your order been taken? Customer — Yes, and so has Bunker Hill. Teacher — Joseph, what are you going to give your little sister for a birthday pres- ent? Joseph — I dunno, last year I gave her the chicken pox. Some jokes get old waiting for some nervy joke editor to come along.
