JOKES FOR WHITE RABBIT
CONCISE! A class had beer, asked to write an Essay on “The funniest thing I ever saw.” The lazy boy of the class sat dreamig away while the other boys were busy writing Soon the teacher went up to his desk to see his effort. It ran as follows: “The funniest thing I ever saw was too funny for words.” NOT TO LEND! A little girl sitting near the front of the class sniffed incessantly. The teacher became annoyed, called the child to her, and said, “Have you a handkerchief, my dear?” “Yes, teacher," replied the child, “but mother doesn’t like me to lend it to anybody.” —Sent in by Helen Gribben, _____ Wakatu.
