ALL'S WELL THAT ENDS WELL

Zo Young Listeners, Thank you for your letters-some with puzzles, some with jokes and some with news. Mary says in hers that she is in bed with a cold and that her dog Vic has gone away, she doesn’t know where. Poor Mary, we must do something about it. Mary’s in bed With a cold in her head And a terribly sniftly nose Vic is away for a week and a day But nobody knows where he goes. I am in bed With a pain in my head Which reaches right down to my toes! It’s no fun keeping still Just because you are ill When will we be well do you s’pose? When next we all meet Let’s go for a treat To a tea-shop that nobody knows; Just you, Vic and me We'll have morning tea With our very best hats on, and clothes! Thank you for your pictures too, Don’t Forget "An apple a day keeps the doctor away, and the fentist too," a clever doctor said in The Listener two weeks ago. But there must be some doctors and dentists who wish there weren’t any apples! Take Your Choice What is the difference between a school-master and an engine-driver? ~ One trains the mind and the other minds the train. Try The Impossible Stand sideways against the wall with the left heel and left hip touching it. Then raise your right leg off the ground, As a matter of fact, you can’t. The Three Travellers It’s quite simple for an elephant and a rooster and a fox to go travelling, because they have a trunk and a brush and comb always with them. The Unexpected Retort Stranger (savagely): You're sitting on my hat, Sir! Old Gentleman: So I feel, Sir! And I hope in future you will wear soft hats, and ‘not these hardbrimmed abominations.
