White Bluffs Warehouse

White Bluffs Warehouse
Tentative plans are being made this
week for an event which promises to
be the most unique of it's kind ever
held or beheld-a sneezing smoker.
Myrtle Anglin and Maude Coleman
have been suggested for the curtain
raiser while Leta Broughton and Percie
Bruce will come on for the main event.
Both these girls are in good sneezing
form, having worked out every day
during this warehouse season and the
affair promises to be an interesting
one Bets are evenly divided so far,
some backing Leta, whose sneeze is a
combination of fire siren and crow
ing hen; and others think the odds
are with Percie, whose sneeze resem-
bles cross between the Shrek of a
wild catamount and a boiler explo-
sion. Come early and bring your own
chewing gum.
1t has been noted by various men,
bers of the crew that when Beth
Beyers packs @ grades she invariably
can be heard singing, with Danny ac-,
companying her-or mimicking her,
we don't know which. We would sug-
gest the following for her to sing:
''I'm packing in the C's,
"I' packing in the C's,
There aren't many of them
But we're busy as bees.
The lidder is happy
AS happy can be;
We're both singing gaily
To make harmony.
There isn't much to it &
A little green G
But the bass joins the chorus
And now we are three"
Maybe Beth can explain why Elsie
was heard singing last week:
o. where and O where are my extras
gone
o where and O where can they be?
They're going in C's and fancies now,
o where and o where can they be-?
Our best day last week was on
Thursday when we rolled out 1851
packed boxes.
Mr.. Wilkinson paid us business and
social visit Tuesday. The business had
to do with the fixing of the warehouse
telephone; the social part developed
when y his Ford exhibited a balky
streak. Various words of wisdom and
advice were shouted down to him by
mi Of Of tho 10 c11uCnCf
ed that he get a Dodge; some one else
spoke glowingly of the merits of a
Chevrolet; other helpful suggestions
were offered, and finally John McFee
asked him to get the thing out of the
runway, as he was blocking traffic.
For while our visitor was able to
hold his own in the debate, but in
the end had to resort to throwing
rotten pears at the packers in order
to get an even break Eventually,
ian S. o. S. call brought Jack. Olson
with a tow rope, and the mulish We
hicle was led to the White Bluffs
Motor company garage for proper dis
cipline.
We would like to know how Mrs.
Anglin does it. Tuesday afternoon
she suddenly sat up and whistled and
beckoned, and behold, handsome
young man materialized at her elbow,
right out of thin air! We all tried it
Immediately, but we must have missed
the magic note for in spite of our
best efforts the only result was the
appearance of Harry Foltz
A new game has been originated.
The only apparatus necessary is one
or more rotten pears. The rules are
of the simplest, the object of the game
being to see which one of the con-
testants can smear the most rotten
pear over the surface of her opponent.
The game was ably demonstrated last
Friday by Percie and Mrs. Beyers.
!. We have heard about "the dangerous
age" but -, don't know what age
that is, nei..ler do we know how old
Irvie is. But one week he wore q
necktie to work; next it was beau
tiful silk sleeve holders and last week
he donned Xxi gloves! Maybe it was
just coincidence, but we were just
wondering y,
P. S. Irvie says the kid gloves were
to keep his hands from getting
| freckled.
