AN EGGCELLENT EGGI I
Big Tack Hayes, like other night
workers at the newer house and gar
age , takes his lunch with him.
"This is how we used to do it t
when I was a kid in school," said
'Tack, .nicking un a hen fruit and
rapping it share .ly against his
forehead.
Seems the cook had made a mis
take. The egg that smashed flat
on TaekTs hrow was net hard toiled
'tut raw as they come.
They say Tack is still hunting
for the cook who will admit the
error.
TEAT HAPRIAGE RACKET
, No, net as bad as it sounds —
J but a noisy time in any man’s
language was the charivari which
shattered the stillness of the
] valley night down at Tract 161
where the quartette of newlyweds
are living.
Its. Victor Johnson (at whose
home ail the courting took place
J before the two school teachers
started out to do their own house
keeping) and the warehouse bunch
wove the ’’racket-tears" and they
did such a good job that Skin Ccu
den still has the jitters.
’’Noisiest outfit I ever saw,”
said Ernie Tiling. ’’Nearly wrecked
the joint. Glad that’s over.”
