RIDDLE POT Why was Robinson Crusoe fin acrobat?—-Becausc he sat on his chest. What is never felt? —A straw hat. If a clog had a motor car what would the number be? —I\9. When is a tea-pot like an artist? —When it draws well. What is it that walks many miles but has only one foot?—A stocking. Why is an eel like a poet?— Because he is a long fellow. I live alone; my house is small, Without a window, door or hall. Inside it is as white as milk, With walls and floor as smooth as silk. Sometimes I harbour in my care A lovely guest of value rare. Answer: An oyster. Willing to Wait. Jones was a bootmaker. By dint of hard saving lie had managed to send his son Billy to a good school. "Father," he demanded, "I want five shillings to go to the theatre." "What!" cried Jones. "Do you realise that I've got to sole and heel three pairs of shoes to make five shillings?" Billy sat down comfortably on a chair. "All right, father," he said. "I'll wait."
