Old Haywood Snugg, the
Kris Kringle of Gobblers
Knob, got an 11-foot pole for
Christmas so that he can now
touch girls he couldn't with a
10-foot one!
And" says Haywood, "wim-
min are all alike but the Lord
gave 'em different faces SOS
that you can tell 'em apart"
REASON
Young secretary: Now that
I've shown you my capabili-
ties, I presume that you'll
start paying me what I'm
worth"
Old boss: But my dear
young lady-you've got to
eat!"
OUCH!
It is a safe bet that the
people who live in Rhode Is
land all believe in Providence.
DAFFYNITIoN
an alcoholic is merely a guy
who drinks between drinks.
And like one of the local men,
bers of Alcoholics Unanimous
was heard to say the other
day-"If the price of booze
gets any higher, I'll have to
give up cigarettes!"
ARRANGEMENT
Hear tell of a man down in
Carolina who is an inveterate
drinker of coffee-black. He
has a working agreement with
the management where he in
bibes his java wherein the
manager gives him a quart of
cream per month to take
home free. All of which brings
to mind the age-old question
as to why a practically hair
less person pays as much for
a haircut as a guy who looks
like a shaggy dog.
