the rough weather) — “The ship
seems to tip a good deal, steward.’’
Steward — “Yes, ma’am. How
ever, I assume it is merely trying
to set a good example for the pas
sengers.’’

Henry Henpeck: “I want three
potted geranium plants.”
Florist: “Sorry we’re out of
geraniums, but we have some nice
potted chrysanthemums.”
Henry: “No, they won’t do. #You
see I promised my wife I d water
her geraniums while she was
away.”
John: “They’re nice looking
horses of yours; appear to be well
matched.”
Henry: “They are; one’s quite
willing to pull and the other’s
quite willing to let him.”
it is the feeling at present that
Exeter will not field a Midget and
Juvenile entry but rather will form
an active house league divided into
various age groups.

it means poor performance. Bring

sparkplugs haven’t been checked
in the last 5,000 miles. Good plugs
