YULE SMILE
OH, YE OF LITTLE FAITH The old negro parson had : called his flock together during a drought to pray for rain. Entering the pulpit he gazed sadly down upon his congregation. “De faith ob you niggahs is deplorable,” his began. “Here we are gathered together to ask the good Lawd to send us rain— not one of you has brought an umbrella.” *♦♦■*♦ Hitler, Stalin and Musso were fighting verbally for the dictatorship of the world. Joe’s claim was: “I have most subjects, so it’s me.” Musso retorted: “No, it’s not. God told me in a dream that I was to rule the world.” Said Hitler with a scowl: “When did I tell you that?” ♦ * ♦ ♦ ♦ RAISING THE WIND. Clerk: “I came to ask you could you raise my salary.” Boss: “This isn’t pay day.” Clerk: “I know that, but I thought I would speak about it to-day.” Boss: “Go back to your work and don’t worry. I’ve managed to raise it every week so far, haven’t I?”
