Warehouse Chat
Codding- Heideman

Our office the past week has re-
sembled ball park (if your magma
ton can carry you that far).
First in Importance, Of course, is the
radio, which brings the game to us.
This has been loaned by A. Heideman.
Then there are those on the bleachers,
In reality those eating lunch during
the noon hour-now ali too short to
hear the final inning.
Now step into the grandstand and
see thoss In the reserved seats. Among
them will he none other than Captain
Hawks and Jimmie Dool!ttle, alias Art
and Andy. and possibly few others
not 30 we'll known to the public.
| The lunch concession has been sold
to the lady in charge, Irna by name.
She will serve the usual hot dog-ham-
nurger-or what have you to those too
interested to go home for lunch. The
game would hardly be ball game
without the usual betting, and al
though the stakes are not so large they
cause great deal of amusement to
all concerned.
At the time that this is written, Joe
has contributed four new apple dolls
to the collection but no doubt there
will be more by the time this paper
is printed. The last are called "Flop-
Ears, "Poo-Boo", kitty the Orphan"
| and "Gato" Git looks like Felix, in the
| funniest. But we already know Joe's
ability along this line What we didn't
know was that Joe is poet The 9TH
err day he sent a bad apple through
the machine, bearing sign reading:
There, little apple,
Don't you cry,
You'll be in the Gull box
Bye and bye"
Before that, we were unaware that
we had second Shakespeare in our
midst.
Right now we want to make a cor
rection which seems to have worried
the party concerned almost to distrac
ton. It seems that Friend Snoose
does not spell his name thusly. A grave
error-poor SNUCE has been worrying:
afraid that his name will go down in
Warehouse History spelled incorrectly.
We were thinking of making it
"Snooze", but now that he is packing,
he doesn't have much time to do that
any more. Leland jackson has his old
job; we wonder if he'll manage to make
resting" fine art, as Snuce did.
You know that new song, with you
on my mind, find I can't write the
words? Ruth Krug has changed it to
suit the occasion, to with you on my
mind, find I can't sort the worms .
Who is he, Ruth?
Now that the boiler is being used,
we can expect little diversion when
the steam valve decides to "strut it's
stuff" Esther Krug was particularly
startled, recently, when Joe "persuad-
ed" it to go off. Esther was Jumping
Center in her high school basket ball
team, so perhaps that is why her head
hit the ceiling.
Hip must have taken his statement
that he would "do or die" to heart,
for he has been feeling half dead ever
since. An attack of the grippe, that
kept him away from work on Monday.
I hereby declare war on the follow
ing persons:
/. Roscoe Ray, who stamps "Unclassi-
fled" upon unsuspecting persons.
| 2. XYZ, who writes slanderous things
about Yours Truly.
| 3. Joe Fouty, who calls Kitty-t the
Orphan, "dumb but not beautiful and
then suggests naming her Ruth or
Margie! Is that any way to treat young
sorting geniuses?
Mrs. Wendeborn has started a new
fad, all her own. Stockings upon her
arms; perhaps she will wear gloves
over her shoes. Who knows?
