Description

WATER
Fr. H.—"Was everyone killed in the flood?"
Red Mack—"No, I saw the flood in a moving
picture and there were quite a few that weren't
drowned,"
WAR TAX
H. Vander Vennet—"Gee, I feel like twenty-
six cents!"
Horty—"You mean twenty cents, don't you?"
Van—"Well, six cents war tax."
IRISH
Fr. T.—"Who was Robert Burns?"
Rank—"I don't read newspapers."
Did you ever hear of L'Ethel Casey or of Hazelbrush Bailley? I never did either.

PRETTY SLICK JOHNNY
Prof. M. (to Burke entering class five minutes late)—"What were
you late for ?"
Burke—"For class."

THE FIRST CANAL
Prof.-"What was the first canal made?"
Seng-"Adam's Alimentary Canal."
The ghost of "Phoggy" Allar's brain,
Entered Woeber's home,
And rapped on little Jerry's head
Till echo answered bone.
JEALOUS
She (during the K. C. Dance)—"Do you think there's a man in the
moon, Mr. Bailey ?"
Bailey—"Maybe, but if so, he is an old man."
If a man had the mouth of McGivern,
Lew's weight; the neck of a giraffe;
And a line like Louie Nieters,
He would sure be a man and a half.
ANOTHER CASE OF MISTAKEN IDENTITY
Ivo—"See that girl over there. Well, she mistook me for her brother
and kissed me."J Fottral—"What did you do?"
Ivo—"As the kiss didn't belong to me I returned it."
