A Ukulele Lay.
By Clement Wood.
As a ukulele player
You can gaily uke a lay;
For you can’t make music gayer
Than the ukulele way.
You are happy as a duke on
His vacation, at his ease,
When you uke on/on the Yukon,
Or mid eucalyptus trees.
You may take a hand at euchre,
While the other strums with glee;
But you never uke for lucre—
You continue uking free;
And you never envy duke a
Bit, or any other man,
When you let your little uku—
Lele uke in Yucatan.

“Fo’ why dat French sojer done got
dat telephone cord all drape’ round his
shoulders?” inquired one colored
stevedore of another.
“Ah’s plumb appealed by yo’ igger-
ance,” answered the second pityingly.
“Dat merely syndicates dat his regi
ment done got excited.”—American
Legion Weekly.
The Dividing Line.
Hubby (driving the car)—I wish
you would sit up here in front with
me.
Wife (seated in tonneau)—Are you
ashamed for people to know we are
married?—New York Sun.
The car was waiting at its terminal
outside the city when Hi Hardscrab
ble approached, chewing a straw and
tugging along his lawful heirs.
“Hi, thar, young feller,” he ad
dressed the conductor, “will yew
charge me fare for these kids?”
“Not if they’re under Jflve,” an
swered the wielder of the ticket punch.
“Wa’al, then, that’s fixed, b’gosh.
These kids ain’t neither of ’em turned
five yit. S’pose yew jist takes them
into taown and puts ’em off by the
depot; they’ll wait there while I walks
it.”—Penn State Froth.

Sir Arthur Pinero has the reputa
tion of being one of the most careful
of modern producers.
On one occasion he expostulated
with an actor for speaking a certain
line in a pedantic fashion.
“I have always spoken the line that
way,” said the actor, with dignity,
“and I shall continue to do so.”
“My dear sir,” was Pinero’s caustic
retort, “by all means speak the line as
you will. I would be the last person
in the world to deprive you of one of
your laughs.”—Humorist (London).
Ikey—You got a nerve advertising a
fire sale. Vere was the fire?
Izzy—Right here in this store. I
fired two salesmen last week.—Vir
