A laugh from the Associated Press story
which read:
"Wildwood, N . J.- Mrs. Wi ll iam An-
derson gave birth to her 18th ch il d yester-
day. Mrs. Anderson is 39. Her husband
is 47. Sixteen of the children are living,
two of them married. Ten are attendi ng
school.
" Mr. Anderson is an interior decorator. "
Slow Waitress: "This is a very fine salad,
sir. The apples come from Washington,
the nuts from Brazil, the celery from Cali-
fornia, and the cream from Iowa."
Customer : "Oh, so that's where you've
been."
"

ment is the penalty 101' using slugs

- Sec. 5462, Revised Stat utes of U S.
--Sec. 282, Tit le 18, U. S Code Annotates:!
Some men fall to their knees when they
propose, others are ab le to hold their liquor.
Farmer (to hired hand): "Where' s the
horse I just told you to have shod?"
Hired Hand : "Oh, I thought you said
shot. I just finished burying her. "
H e: "I t doesn't take much to turn a
woman's head ."
She : ''I'll say not! That one just turned
to look at you."
Mickey: " D on't you love driving on a
n ight like this?"
Mike: " Yeah, but I thought I'd wait
unti l we got a little further out of town. "
J udge: " You are charged with driving
eighty miles an hour, smashing a light pol e
and knocking over a telegraph pole. . Do
you have anything to say ?'~
Sweet Young Thing: " It seems that I
should have some privi leges for the $20
I pay for my license."
There was an old woman
Who lived by the hi ll ,
She sold good stuff
And folks love her sti ll.
Three young men, considerably under the
weather because of too many libations,
dashed frantically through the Union Sta-
tion a few evenings ago and down through
the train sheds toward a train about to
depart for Chicago.
They ran breathlessly to climb onto the
steps of the observation car, which had
been winking its red taill ight goodbye to
them. Two of the inebriates made the steps
and rode on, but the third stumbled and
sprawled along the right of way.
Up dashed two burly redcaps, who pick-
ed up the unfortunate chap, brushed him
clean of clinkers, and commisserated with
him.
"Too bad, boss, you missed dat train,"
they sympathized. " Your pa ls caught it,
though," one comforted.
"Yesh?" came the dazed answer. " Well ,
do yo u know-they were· down here to
shee me off!"
For the benefit of his Technicolor cam-
eras fi lming "D ancing Pirate," producer
Jock Whitney had two oxen bleached and
painted from their natural dark brown to
a golden hue. The two beasts now bolt
in terror on the Radio lot every time they
see each other.
