English people are too often devoid Of what

goes beyond an understanding of jokes that are
simply broadly funny. In this country we are won't

on this trait was noted the other day at popular

ity a number of short scenes had been borrowed
from the current comic papers, the pictures being
reproduced nearly possible. and the text acted
as in a little play. One of the scenes given was a
Gibson drawing depicting truly British individual
gazing out into vacancy, while couple OF laughing
girls propounded and answered the question, When
is a joke not joker" when it is told TO an Eng

be a newly arrived Brton Of the most marked
British type. and he felt somewhat anronted at
the caricature directed against his nation. 1T was
