COLD
“I spent last summer in a very pretty
city in Switzerland.”
“Berne?”
“No, I almost froze.”
RIGHT OF FREE SPEECH
In some countries nowadays every man
has the right of free speech so long as he doesn’t mind being shot.
TAKING PRECAUTIONS
Mother: “Johnny, you must not play the
piano when daddy is sleeping.”
Johnny: “But, Mommy, I have gloves on.”
PROVES IT
Policeman (to Christmas reveler trying
to fit a key in lamp post):
“I don’t think there’s anyone home
there to-night.”
“Mush be. There’ish a light upstairsh.”

“I’ve been trying to think of a word
for two weeks.”
“What about fortnight?”
