ARMCHAIR DRIVER
A husband drew up his chair
beside his wife’s sewing machine.
“Don’t you think you’re run
ning too fast?’’ he asked. “Look
out! You’ll sew the wrong seam!
Mind that corner, now! Slow
down, w a t c li your finger!
Steady.”
“What’s the matter with you,
John?” said his wife, alarmed.
“I've been running this machine
for years!”
"Well, dear, I thought you
might like me to help you, since
you help me driye the car.”
You know, very few people
go to the doctor when they have
a cough or a cold. They go to
the movie.
Any father can speak his
piece at home, but will be ig
nored.
Only a bus driver has the
right to tell people where to
get off.
No self-made man who was
successful ever left out the work
ing parts.
Carelessness too often turns
holidays into hollow days.
All expense vacations are us
ually just that—all expense.
