A Little Fun
“ Good Lord, look at the length of
that woman’s skirt.”
“Yes, it’s very little above two
feet.”
— Brown Jug.
Two colored men were standing on
the comer discussing family trees.
“Yes, suh, man,” said Ambrose,
“ I can trace my relations back to a
family tree.”
“ Chase ’em back to a family tree?”
said Mose.

“Naw, man, trace ’em, trace ’em—
get me?”
“ Well, they ain’t but two kinds of
things dat live in trees. Birds and
monkeys, and you sho’ ain’t got no
feathers on you.”— Atlanta Constitu­
tion.

SOUNDED DIFFICULT
Down in Texas the short cotton
crop forced a large number of coun­
try negroes to the cities. One of
them applied for a job at one of the
large employment agencies.
“ There’s a job at the Eagle Laun­
dry,” said the man behind the desk.
“ Want it?”
The applicant
shifted uneasily
from one foot) to the other.
“ Tell you how it is, boss,” he said
finally. “ I sure does want a job
bad, but de fack is, I ain’t never
washed a eagle.”— The Open Road.
Civil War
“ Doesn’t your father like me”
asked a fond suitor.
“Yes, that’s just the trouble,” an­
swered the girl. “ He and mother
quarrel about you constantly.”

CAN’T FOOL A HORSEFLY
The story is told of a negro from
the North who went South for the
first time. During his visit he, with
his host, went out over the pasture
lot, and a big fly started buzzing
around the northern negro’s head,
much to his annoyance.
“ Sam,” he inquired, “what am dis
heah fly you all sees buzzin’ ’round
mah head?”
“ That,” responded Sam, “ is a hoss
fly, what bothers hosses, an’ cows
and jackasses.”
“ Does you all mean to insinuate,
niggah, dat I’m a jackass?” the vis­
itor inquired.
Diplomatic Sam hesitated not a
second but responded easily, “ I’se
passin’ no remahks,” he said, “and
I ain’t saying’ you all’s a jackass, but
dem flies don’ make no mistakes!”

Prelude
A man was sitting by a hole in the
ice when a curious chap came over.
“Aren’t you cold?” asked the new­
comer.
“Nope.”
“ Caught any fish?”
“ Nope.”
“ What are you waiting for?”
“ My partner. He’s down under the
ice looking things over.”
A Man of Parts
“ Where’s that dratted Simpkins?”
roared the boss. “ Some say he’s in
the credit department, some saw him
in the salesroom, some claim he's in
the warehouse.”
“ Well,” replied the secretary, “ you
know he’s an all-around man.”
If Necessary
“ If you had it to do over again,
would you marry me, dear?” asked
Mrs. Nash.
“ Of course,” answered her brute of
a husband, “------ if I had to do it over
______
again.”
