Writing a news item in this place is about as hard
as trying to climb Mt.Everest,otherwise known as Jomo Kang
Kat,(the Lady of the Snows) ,-29,141 feet straight up in the air,

That's me,whenever a dance shows up,as swearing seems
to be the only defense a man has. Personally,I have nothing
against dancing,but for myself,-BAH! But let us hence,-there
are weightier things to be written about .For instance,we un
derstand that Jack Bempsey has gone to Europe,which is conclu
sive evidence that peace has arrived over there.One thing we

ever hear this one?

this way,Captain?" asked the seasick old
lady.
"Because I always boljfc down my meals,
Madam",replied the weary Captain,turning
on his heel.
We are of the opinion that our fiiend Levy should
have put Non-Skids on his canoe,t'other day,or was he pract
icing for the Movies? At any rate,he missed a good bet,-he
might have gotten a good drink,had he reported to the Hospital.
