RIO DE JANEIRO—f/Pl—Fun
loving Bazilians even laughed in
the face of a temporary but mark
id water shortage in this city.
Such jokes as these made the
rounds:
“Propercio is ill. . . . What’s the
matter? . . . Water on the knee.
. . . Oh, surely the doctor’s mis
taken.”
“Strawberries have a double
value now. . . . How so? ... I
just have to look at them and my
mouth waters.”
“I had a funny dream last night.
I though I had been knighted by
King George of England. . . . Ah,
I know ... a Knight of the Bath!”
Rio columnist Cyrano wound
up his observations on the water
shortage: “Everything in this
world has its compensatory fac
tor, even the water shortage. Fi
nally we can drink milk that has
not been watered.” But another
wit answered: “That’s why there’s
a milk shortage too. There’s no
water to dilute it with.”
SOME PULP! Here is the finished Canadian
product—gold rayon satin dress.
CAR-HUNGRY RIO
IS JEEP CRAZY
RIO DE JANEIRO—f/P)—Rio’s
newest game and unsolved riddle
is “Jeep, Jeep, who’s got the
Jeep.” The rumored gent who is
I taking orders for postwar deliv
eries for a $25 down payment is
Rio’s most sought after individual.
The whole thing stems from ru
mors floating around Rio’s coffee
shops that the U. S. Embassy is
arranging for postwar sales of
guaranteed used Jeeps. The quot
ed price is $85 to $95, and foot
weary, nuto-hungry Cariocas are
gobbling it up.
Embassy officials, amazed at the!
wildfire story, have tried to kill j
the rumor, but recently it has l
come back stronger than ever.
