Catty! A small boy who was staying at a. farm rushed indoors one day and breathlessly exclaimed that a moow had fallen into a churn of milk. “ D d you take it out? ” asked tha farmer. “ Of course not,” answered the boy, “ I put the cat in.” Not Really! Patient: My head is like a lump of lead, my neck is as stiff as a poker, and I feel as if I have got an iron band across my chest. Doctor (sarcastically): H’m, I think, you shou'd have seen an ironmonger. (Dippy Dawn, Everybody’s Theatre, New Plymouth.) A Bare Fact. i^j The Rugby football club was holding its annual ball. Among the dancers was a lady whose frock left uncovered a large tract of spine. Two of the footballers stood gazing j at her in awe, for at least ten minutes. Then one said in an audible whisper. 1 “ Well, Jack, that’s the best full back I’ve seen this season.”
