WHO IS THIS ?
My first is in little but not in big, My second's in cat but not in pig, My third's in wind 'but not in blow, My fourth's in yes' but not in no, My fifth's in girl but not in boy, My sixth's in play but not in toy, My seventh's in stay but not in fall. My whole is someone known to us all. —'MATE HARUM SCARUM, L.8.H., Ross. When does a man have four hands? When he doubles his fists. . Why do the church bells ring? Because someone is pulling the ropes. Why is a broken pencil like a bad ioke? Because there is no point to it ">•' • »>W#m MATABOA; ■ ■
