1920 BEST WISHES FOR 1920 Awfully D., An old hen was pecking at some stray carpet tacks in the yard. "Now, what do you suppose that hen is eating those tacks for?" said Jim Kyle. "Perhaps," rejoined his little sister, "she is going to lay a carpet." (Homey on B. B. trip): I'd like to get a comb." "Something in a nice comb for a lady with a celluloid back?" "No, I want a comb for a man with rubber teeth." Waiter: "We do all our cooking by electricity here." Collins: "Take this egg out and give it another shock." "Seen Al?" "Al who?" "Alcohol. Kerosene him January 16th, and he ain't Benzine since." Cedarville is bewailing the lack of romance in the average girl of today. "It's sickening," growled Preach. "A feller can pour out his soul all the blessed night on a violin and she won't trouble to look out of the window. But give three toots on a motor horn any afternoon and she's outside in a jiffy." Mrs. McChesney: "See here, Calla, don't you ever sweep under this bed?" Calla: "I always do, mum. It's so much easier than using a dustpan." Helen: "Do you think Nelson ought to be encouraged to fight?" Alice Dames: "In about the same measure that ducks ought to be en- couraged to swim." Paul Bryant (learning to waltz): "Is it hard to reverse?" Hester: "No,just take your foot off my right one and put it on my left." 75
