A road show was making tour of
one night stands, and had arrived in
a little town billed to play Gro
meo and Juliet at the local opera
house. Shortly after the troupe got
in town the leading man approached
the manager with a look of great
distress. 81 must have ten cents, -
he implored.
"Ten cents!" shouted the man
ager. 81 never saw such a fellow
always bowling for money. What dc
you need money for in this town?'
81 must have a shave" the actor
explained. "You can't expect a fell
low to play Romeo with three
days growth of beard"
The manager thought for mo-
ment, and put his hand in his
pocket. Then a happy smile broke
over his face, and his hand came
out of his pocket empty. "That's al
right" he declared. wen just
change the bill to 'Othello.'

Funny Stuff?
And Make 1t Strong

1t was plain to the minister that,
though the shabbily-dressed young
couple might possess a great love
for each other, they possessed little
else. Yet when the marriage vows
had ben exchanged, the groom
bashfully handed the clergyman the
usual envelope, beyond all doubt
containing the marriage fee.
When the happy pair had de-
parted, the preacher opened the en-
velope and his expectations were
confirmed. 1t contained a clean but
modest dollar bill. But there was
something elsa hastily scrib-
bled note reading, Thanks, parson.
This leaves us thirty cents. Pray for

Good Prospect

A Scottish farmer of a misery
disposition bought a horse at a fair,
and on the way home he thought a
drink of water would refresh it, Sc
he got a pail of water; but the ami
NAL would not take it. When he got
home he offered it a feed of corn
but much to his surprise it would
not touch that, either.
"Weel," he muttered to himself,

The globe-independent. (Hagerstown, Md.) 1943-19??, 1951-09-27

Mr.. Weldon Whetzel, principal of
the Leitersburg School, has, for the
past week, been exhibiting a rare
musical instrument that he obtained
in Morgantown, w. Va. the past sum-
mer. The instrument, known as a
"Rebec" or "Rebeck," dates back to
Bible times and all of them that are
in circulation today are handmade.
The instrument Mr.. Whetzel owns
was made by an elderly man. 1t
consists of only three strings and has
a sweet sound, something like a harp.
Since the instrument has never been
completely polished, Mr. Whetzel ex-
poets to send it away and have it
completely refnished and he will be
glad to show it to anyone who is
interested.
