"Si" Perkins, of Salem, had a pipe
dream Wednesday morning. He dreamt
he was among the "Ruberoids" when
his pipe drew as much attention as
his exertions to smoke it.. Some one
put rubber in the bowl. Ask Evans;
he knows!
Petite Anna Cooper, of the Village,
appeared at the office Wednesday re-
spiendent in a champagne colored
creation a la Annette Kellerman; at
hast that is what Dean Warner called
it. and he is some conniosseur with
the accent on the first syllable. We
all thought she displayed good form.
c.. D. Miller and J. Norman Hand,
the Salem cut-ups, visited Philly last
Saturday night and became lost in the
great city. How do they get that way
when the police have a bereau for
missing children?
Miss Hazel McClintock, of Salem
and Penns Grove, is so enthusiastic
over the Forthcoming st. Valentines
dance that many believe she is fast
becoming the victim of st. Nitus.
Never mind, Hazel, We all appreciate
your efforts.
Charles D. E~ndicott, of Camden, has
succeeded Jimmy" Collins as Master
of Mysteries in the Government Field
office. If he gets as much fun out of
the position as the Brooklyn "Battler'
he is going some.
There's a vacant chair at a desk today,
And a lonesome chap across the way.
The other girls, they think him silly,
Because she's only gone to Philly-
For the day.
If "Rudy" and Hays want to know
the quickest way to reach the hospital
let them try to board a departing f1iv-
yer again when it has only eleven pas
sengers. They tried it Wednesday
evening and were scattered all over
the lot. If at first you don't succeed,
try, try again!
Captain H. D. Warren, Q. NJ. c., is
the happiest officer at the Post. He
is always CHEEKY when he bustles thru
the offices and the boys imbibe his
spirit by humming bugle calls when
ever he approaches. They never blow
reveille, though, for the Captain is al
ways up and on the job.
