pAW0.GAWNl
Friend of ours sold his Bas-
sett hound the other day. He
told us that he had had him
for four years but that he had
never caught a single Bassett!
MILITARY
The highest decoration at
tainable by any military man
seems to be the royalty check
he receives for writing his
memoirs.
OPPORTUNITY
Every so often we come up
with an idea which we think
will pay some industrious per-
son a handsome profit. Our
suggestion at this time is that
some enterprising fellow start
a school to teach dogs to baby
sit!
BUSINESS
The boss is the guy who
never wants you to watch the
clock at the office and who
never wants you to take your
eye off it at home.
LIFE
A 50-year-old bachelor sit
ting in a restaurant with a 25-
year-old cutie is living proof
that it's better to have loved
and lost than never to have
lost at all.
LOVE
When a man gets down on
his knees to propose - he
might as well stay there.
QUESTION
The big question nowadays
concerns the hot-rod kid. No
longer do we ask what is the
younger generation coming
to?" We know the answer to
that one but what concerns us
most is WHERE is the youn-
ger generation going in such a
hurry?"
AGE
From the statistics we've
gathered it appears that at
least half of the female popu-
lation was born on February
29th!
PoLLYTtcks
See by the papers that some
congressman are going to
look into" the lobbying which
has been going on around
Washington. We predict that,
after the investigation, most of
the Congressman will get out
of pollyticks-and become lob
byiSts!
FASHION
Mems fashion ads indicate
that the man of the future will
have a patch over one eye and
a tattoo on his hand. He will
drink Calverts, Vodka and
Beefeater Gin and ride in a
midget car while wearing Bur-
muda shorts. In addition, he
will continue to wear ties that
cost more than his shoes and
perfume that smells like an
old fire helmet.
HOLY MATRiMONY
When a young couple sets
up housekeeping, the baby is
usually bare necessity and
naked extravaganza = all in
one.
LIVING
Our pleasure to watch the
master. Victor Borge, at the
Veterans Memorial in Colum-
bus Wednesday evening. This
fellow Borge is Just about the
funniest man alive. Who else
could keep thousands OF peo-
pie laughing continuously for
over two hours?
Borge's one-man show is not
only tonic-it's the cure!
Borge's humor is just plainly
hilarious .. like his reference
to the fact that he had just
celebrated the 102nd birthday
of his uncle. "Of course, my
uncle wasn't there" says Bor-
pc. You see, he died when he
was twenty-nine"
Another was this twist -
"You see, my mother couldn't
speak English. The reason was
because she was born in Cop
enhagen where everyone
speaks Danish. Nobody spoke
English. Maybe she DID speak
English and nobody KNEW
III"
From the looks of things
(several hundred people were
seated upon the stage). Victor
Borge can go on for years with
Just what material he has now
and 1t is our sincere
recommendation that you and
yours see him at the very first
opportunity.
DOUGH
II you don't take it with you
You can't get to where
you're going!
LAST WORD
An optimist is a guy who
tells you that everything is
Just great when things are go
