NATIONS BUSINESS

NATIONS BUSINESS
The best test of a country's
government is to find out how
many people want to get out
of it.
WIMMIN
And if women dressed to
suit their husbands they still
would be wearing poke bon
nets and high-button shoes!
SPEED
Next to a monthly payment
nothing takes less time than it
does for Junior to wear out
pair of shoes.
SCHOOL
Indignant teacher called a
mother of a seven-year-old
and asked, why wasn't Elm
er in school today" Mother
pondered and replied, We'll,
for one thing, my little FL
mer's legs are 13 inches long
and the snow this morning
was 18 inches deep"
MONEY MAKER
Mean old man we know has
invented an isolation booth
for children. He won't ever be
very popular but we'll bet the
booths sell like hotcakes.
MONKEY BUSINESS
Friend told us about a
scientist who had spent
great number of hours trying
to teach a monkey to play
saxaphone. In evaporation,
the good doctor locked the
monkey in an adjoining room
while he himself lay down to
rest. Shortly, the doctor got
up and went to the door and
peeked through the keyhole
and found himself staring into
a big beautiful brown eye!
MORE MONKEY BUSINESS
And there's another story
making the rounds. Seems
that the following monologue
took place recently at the Co
lunbus Zoo. Look at that
one there. Looks intelligent
doesn't he? Look at the way
he walks around swinging his
arms. Now he has a peanut
and look at him shell it just
like we do! Oh, oh! Look at
that one beside him. she
must be his mate. Look at the
way she chatters and he pays
no attention. They look sad.
I'll bet they both wish they
were monkeys just like me!
ATOMIC AGE
About the only person in
the world who has absolutely
no fear of 'fall-out" is bald
headed man.
STRICTLY FOR THE BIRDS
And now you gals who claim
that you "eat like a bird"
remember that lot of birds
eat their own weight in food
every day.
VIEWPOINT
1t has been claimed by those
who are supposed to know
that the peak period of men
tai activity in the human oc-
ours between the ages of four
and eighteen years. At four we
know all the questions and at
eighteen. all the answers.

SECRETS
Keeping secrets would be
easy if the people you tell
them to weren't such blabber-
mouths.
LIVING
One of these days people
will claim they came up the
hard way" if their parents
happened to be a one-car fam
lily.
INTELLIGENCE
The word intelligent" be-
longs to the man who can
keep his mouth shut when he
listens to a couple of ribbon

merits of Elvis Presley and
Artur Rubenstein.

The fellow with a forgiving
spirit is usually the mailer of
the two.
