An Irish sergeant was putting a squad of recruits through their paces. Try as he would, he could not get a straight line. Finally in exasperation he shouted: “What’s the matter wid yez? Can’t ye line up? All of yez fall out and take a look at the line you’ve made!” “Do vou know, dearie,” said Mrs. Hawkins, “it's just two years ago since I sent my husband for a loaf of bread, and he s never come back. It’s had me proper worried. What would you do, Mrs. Perkins?” “Well, dear, if I were you, I wouldn’t wait no more. I’d just slip out and get another loaf."
