SECOND THOUGHTS
By Simple Simon All this talk about the Gaming Commission reminds Simple of a story. Once upon a time they found a bookmaker in heaven. They tried to get an eviction order, but they couldn’t find a lawyer. A fishing rod, according to some wives, is a pole with a worm on each end. A boss is one who’s early when you’re late, and vice versa. She stood in the street at midnight, As the traffic homeward sped; She was very much struck by the moonlight; But that’s not the reason she’s dead. According to the latest magazines in doctors’ waiting rooms, business is good, and will be even better in 1929.
