I can go aleng with. a Joke as Well AS the next bird, But after a while, in, fact if I remember rightly, It was just after the fourteenth ',Roo hit- cher", I began getting a little Sore. I mean, fun's fun, Yeti know, but, after all, Sp, when the next joker made his Move, I told him, doleftilly, that a maiden lady who didn't like my column had thrown adid in my face, and that I'd never have the sight of it again, He turned green, My next customer was a wo- man, who tittered, "That, will teach you to write things about your wife in that column •ef yours." I gave her a gentle, sad look from my good eye, and suggested that she not let the divorce alienate her from my wife. I left her with her mouth open. I quickly disposed of an elder- ly lady, strong in the temper- ance mpvement, by informing her the injury had been received from my young daughter, when she clubbed me on the eye with a half-empty whiskey bottle. It's good sport. Next time the old trouble-and-s tr if e hangs one on you, Jack, you'll know what to do. I DAYLIGHT SAVING Lucan will observe Daylight Saving from 2 am April 26 to 2 pm October 25.

But it was only hamburg, all over the pillow. Next morning, the orb looked like a purple golf ball. We patch- ed it up as best we could, and I set off to face the wits. The comments were hilar- ious. They ranged from the simple, dry brilliance of "Boo hitcha?" and "Forget to duck, eh?" to the coy, insinuating, "I knew she'd catch up with ya some day," They ran the scin- tillating gamut from th'e inevit- able, "I suppose ya ran into a door" to the ineffably humorous sally, "Meet the former welter- weight champ of the Smiley household." * I came back with some real funnies myself.

Just get yourself a black eye, I had a doozer recently. My wife gave it to me. All right. Not that way. She was sitting in the car, waiting for me to carry the groceries into the house, through the rain. Just as I bent and reached for the car door to open it and ask her if that was all, she opened it smartly froth' the inside to ask me why I hadn't brought out an umbrella. When the door nailed me in the eye,I thought I was a goner. My wif shrieked and ran straightintp the house to see whether my "loss of limb or eye" accident policy was paid up. Within a few minutes, the eye was the size and color of a bartender's beezer. But by the time we'd finished arguing about whose fault it had been, it was obvious that I'd live. We didn't have a piece of steak, and if we'd had, I dpubt that it would have been sacri- ficed. But the Old Girl, bless her, dug out some hamburg that was going a bit blue, and made me lie down with a big ham- Friday to the home of her daughter, Mrs. Gerald Lewis, Lucan.
