Rent

Rent is a monthly reminder that you are not a home owner.

Rent enables the landlord to run round in limousines, and the tenant to run round in circles.

ft is a lot harder to pay for the upkeep of a circle, than it is for the upkeep of a limousine.

Apparently Diogenes was a lot wiser than history has given him credit for being. He lived in a barrel and staved off the landlord.

HOW THE DOLLAR "CIRCULATES''

The dollar you paid on your last month's bill

Was only a dollar to you;

The day it was paid it was laid in our till But its work was far from through. We paid it out to a truck-man stout

Who gave it in trade for meat,

And the butcher man then quickly ran And bought a necktie neat.

The clothier then possessed your yen But wanted a hairbrush more, And the brush store spent, yet every cent, On a sign for the big front door.

The painter then took, your dollar, and look He paid it in on his dwelling,

And the landlord keen bought gasoline

To keep his gears from swelling.

The merchant of oil then banked his spoil, And smiled quite merr-i-lee; Then your boss sent across (though felt it a loss)

And dress your sal-aree

So the little old dollar went on its rounds

Without any flurry or fuss, And brought to you your due so you Could bring us what's due to us.

COULDN'T HAVE BEEN

The fishing enthusiast was telling about the wonderful luck he had on his last trip.

"Say, you should have seen that whopper I hooked just before we quit fishing. Gee whiz ! ft was a monster. It was one of those-er-what the dickens do they call that fish?" and he scratched his head.

"Maybe it was a whale," said a sarcastic listener.

"No," he replied, "It couldn't have been a whale. f was using a WHALE FOR BAIT."

. THE LANGUAGE OF LOVE

"Kisses are the language of love" said the jellybean to the flapper.

"Let's walk round and talk it over," said the sophisticated one.

No Southern Gentleman

The Northern man was traveling in the South, and he got off the train at a station to walk about and stretch his legs. There he found an aged darkey selling chicken sandwiches, so he bought one, and immediately discoverid it to be delicious.

"That's a fine sandwich, Ilncle," said he, ..where do you get your chickens?"

"You'all rnus be fum de no'th, aint you Cap?,' asked LIncle."

"Yes, why?" asked the gentleman.

"Caus no Suth'in genamen evah asks a niggah whah he gits his chicking."

Matrimonial

A gentle sow who took recourse To legal craft and lore, Declared "I want a quick divorceMy mate's an awful boar."

A lady sheep who'sought the halls

Of justice wept "Boo-Hoo ! My cruel husband never calls Me anything bue 'u*g."

"We'll have to part" the gander sighed, "ft's not the slightest use To try to live with any bride That's such a silly goose.'i

The stag, however, dropped a tear, And murmured soft and low, "My charming wife's a little deer, I want to keep my doe."

SURE IT WOULD ft takes a lot of peepul for A world as big as this, And while we wish that sum weie gone A lot of them we'd miss.

We'd miss the bird who has a smile And always likes to show it, We'd miss the man who likes his friends And let's the whole world know it.

We'd miss the guy who always has The time to say "Ifello,', The guy who's always on the job The first to say "Let's go."

And if we'd miss those kind of guys Well, wouldn't it be true, That folks would miss US when we're gone If we were that way too?
